The Great and Powerful Trixie has returned to Ponyville, and to make amends for her earlier transgressions has decided to put on a new and spectacular show that everypony can enjoy. Unfortunately, at the apex of her performance, one rainbow coloured pegasus on the run from a fuming Rarity sets off a chain-sequence of events that hurls herself, Applejack and Derpy into a world they know little about.
Now, as they struggle to get home, they find themselves in the middle of a world-wide conflict between ponies that they can't hope to understand and will have to take part in if they want to survive it, and their moral decisions will not only decide the lives of themselves, but everypony else involved.
