Life in the Crystal Empire over the last twenty years has been everything you could have ever hoped for. As Princess Cadance, the alicorn Princess of Love and one of the rulers of Equestria, you're married to the stallion of your dreams with a wonderful daughter in a beautiful place. Not to mention your many friends that love you as well.

What more could a pony ask for?

But recently, something's changed as the years passed by. One day, you learn that even the best of ponies can make mistakes. Even a goddess of love in regards to that very thing you know best.

Love and passion aren't always rational.

Now that I was living in Equestria, it was time to finally buy a new house. I’d settled on the charming little town of Haywards Heath, and found myself a decent house that just needed some work to spruce it up.

Or so I thought.

I might have gotten more than I bargained for.

While returning from a political summit in the dragon lands, King Thorax and Prince Pharynx navigate their way through a dense woods. When gnarled branches and twisting shadows take shape, the brothers find themselves holding their ground against the changeling's former tyrant. But while one brother readies himself for a fight, the other faces his predecessor unarmed, seeking not victory, but answers.
