Tartarus: the fabled prison said to hold all of the demons of Equus at bay.
Few truly know what lies behind the impenetrable doors Cerberus guards. Some say that it is a pit, infinite in it's depth and darkness, from which there is no return. Other claim it to be a hellish plain, filled with fire and pain and suffering, to punish the demons for their sins.
All of them are wrong.
Tartarus is small. An inescapable cell for a single prisoner. But the tales about it's purpose are not false.
For this captive human holds the key to unleashing upon Equestria forces which have not been seen for centuries, forces which predate Equestria by many an age.
And soon, he shall be free.

Months ago, a tear opened up in the sky. Only through the intervention of the princess was the tear closed, but not before something came through. Something from another reality. Something not of Equus' soil.
They called themselves humans.
Only a handful were found, barely the amount of a few hundred. In the beginning, the humans were scared and afraid, but slowly they adjusted. Months passed and things finally appeared to return to a sense of normalcy.
Then it happened.
An incident that rocked Equestria to its core, shook its foundations more then the changeling attack on Canterlot.
It was dubbed,simply, the Human Event.
Being subtle isn't Rainbow Dash's strong suit. At all. So when Applejack asks her point blank what she thinks of Rarity, she doesn't hold back.
Not her best idea.
