Celestia foresees a ruinous, dystopian future that will ultimately result from the untimely death of the Element of Magic: a future in which the world has become a frozen wasteland, and Discord has taken up uncontested rule of Equestria. Who is sending these visions, and how can Twilight possibly stop a future in which she is dead and gone? The answers will take our heroes on a journey through the streams of time itself, and unlock potential unseen by mortal eyes...
*On temporary hiatus while I re-evaluate the story's pacing. This concept could be far grander and more sweeping than what I've presented thus far, and I don't want to sell it short. Also: with the announcement of It's About Time, apparently time travel or some variant of it is officially canon. Suddenly I don't feel so bizarre writing this thing.
