Blueblood just wants to run his charity and be left alone, but High Society - and starry-eyed mares - have other plans.
He's not a good stallion, but maybe he's a better one than even he would guess. Now if only he'd stop being so cynical...
Lapdog of Luna's interests. Dull as he is unremarkable, lackluster as he is soporific. Giving hope to those unfavored by the exceptional. Not the worst, not the best, just what we're stuck with.

No one's important. No one's special. Except for the princesses.
Blueblood's always known this. He's always accepted this. He'll never be special. He'll never do anything important.
But now he has to. There's too much at stake.
He knows he'll fail, but he has to try. Because...
Nightmare Moon's ghost haunts Luna's mind, threatening to once again return and wreak havoc in Equestria. The only thing standing in her way is Luna's sheer power of mind, and it is only a matter of time before the princess of the moon's darker side finally blots out the light. Equestria may never recover from the damage that could be done, and the land may once again be plunged into something far worse than nightime eternal.
