When an insidious evil threatens the Crystal Empire, the Princesses must call upon the most unlikely pony; Sombra. Can he overcome his own darkness in order to save the empire from a far worse one?
Long ago, in the dead of night, Luster Dawn saw a dark figure in Canterlot Castle's throne room. Longer still before that, Princess Twilight Sparkle and her friends defeated one of Equestria's greatest enemies in that same room.
While in Trotsylvania, a mare by the name of "Fluttershy" meets a gentlecolt named "Dr. Van Helstallion" and must be protected from a vampiric demon who is, not only, persuing her, but killing other young mares in the village.
Being the King of Monsters, as well as the real ruler of the Crystal Empire was not easy when you are surrounded by enemies on all sides. Fortunately, the perfect opportunity has presented itself to the dark king in the form of four others like him.
When Sombra is discovered alive but weakened beneath the Crystal Empire, Celestia enlists Twilight and Fluttershy to help reform him. When mysterious ponies appear and begin fighting each other with Dark Magic, things begin to get more complicated.
Reform a now powerless Sombra. For Fluttershy, it didn't sound impossible, but as time passes she learns the truth. To make this work, he won't be the only one forsaking a familiar road.
Sisters, Cadence and Fluttershy, are told the legend of the "Sleeping Princess" by their father, Soarin', only to find that it is indeed true and it's up to the two of them to break a curse and also find the lost Prince of the Everfree Forest.
Even though the Legion of Doom was defeated by friendship, Discord knew he still had to make amends for his actions. Fortunately, he already knew the perfect apology gift to give to Shining Armor and Princess Cadance: King Sombra as their servant.
Immediately following The Beginning of the End, Fluttershy is ponynapped, and Discord disappears. All of Equestria now hangs in the balance. (A Fluttercord tale)
Can Sombra be reformed? Fluttershy is called to Canterlot to assess just that. Will she find a way to convince Sombra to accept help before it's too late?
When Fluttershy goes into the Everfree to pick some berries for her date, she finds an unconscious pony near death. Normally, she would help them straight away but there is just one problem... It's King Sombra.
Fluttershy is faced with the task of caring for King Sombra, this time without the protection of the Princesses. Will she be able to reform him, as she did Discord, or will his dark will overwhelm her?
