Every winter, Applejack heads off into the apple orchard after a heavy snowfall. This year is no different. She can't describe why she does it—to feel the wind chill, to test her endurance, to get some time alone with her thoughts...

All she knows is that she loves the journey.

It's a beautiful day in Ponyville. Then again, every day is a beautiful day for Derpy Hooves.

Lyra Heartstrings is a particularly lonely mare. Save for her best friend Bon Bon, Lyra doesn't really have many ponies that she talks to during the day. She maintains a relatively quiet lifestyle, but she doesn't really mind, or at least that's what she tells herself.

One evening, Lyra impulsively buys a neat looking decorative glass ball from a pawn shop. She is overjoyed at the find, until strange things start happening.

Every night, when she looks into the ball, she meets some kind of... thing... from a different world called Earth. These beings also appear to have found some kind of glass ball, just like Lyra.

Every night, the ball connects with a different person.

And they all have different stories to tell. Suddenly, Lyra isn't so lonely anymore, until the ball begins to take its toll on her.
