Sunset Shimmer is just an average, everyday unicorn-turned-magical-girl who fights off the occasional arcane threat to her local high school, that hails from her old home dimension. After the recent mishap of the Friendship Games, Sunset knows she has found true magic in the form of six great friends and a talking dog. With this magic, she knows she can handle any situation that can come her way.
Unfortunately, waking up in a strange city with a stranger animal on her head doesn't quite qualify as something she's prepared for.
