Inspired by a song you might have heard, in this story Applejack finds that not everypony in Ponyville approves of how Applebloom is being raised in the so far unexplained absence of her parents. Fortunately, the notoriously audacious Rarity has been there before, and is there to help Applejack deal with any criticisms...

What happens when you see only what you want to see, hear only what you want to hear, and project those views onto somepony against their will? What happens when that fiction becomes reality, and their reality becomes everypony else's fiction?

Ditzy Doo has to deal with it on a daily basis. Try as she might, ponies still see her as the klutzy, muffin obsessed mailmare that she's always been, or at least, that they think she's always been.

In the magical land of Equestria, where steam power is the sole source of energy an pegasi drive majestic airships through the sky, it will be up to a crew of seven brave ponies to restore order as the darkest of enemies plots from the shadows.

Celestia suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of Chrysalis. And to throw salt in the wound, her niece comes along and vanquishes the problem with (get this) love! With her subjects now doubting her absolute power, Celestia figures there's only one way to solve this. By challenging Cadence to a Magical Duel. What could possibly happen when two of the most powerful alicorns in Equestria square off in a destructive, grueling, exhausting, epic, explosive...oh wait...

Equestria, the land of harmony and peace...

Where ponies of all kinds are united as one under their omnipotent and benevolent ruler, Princess Celestia...

However, things quickly change when her benevolence twists and changes into a wicked and cruel malevolence that hungers for power and bloodshed.

It is up to our favorite six heroines to save Equestria from the newly-formed tyrant, and to save Celestia...

From herself...

Fluttershy gets more than she asked for when she visits the Library and hears moaning from behind the door. Concerned that Twilight may have developed a problem, Rarity and Rainbow Dash go and investigate.

War comes to Equestria: with despair, with starvation, with suffering and with sacrifice. And the ponies must learn how to keep true to their values while surviving not just the rigors of battle, but the desolation of total war.
