Based on Robert Louis Stevenson's The Black Arrow.

During the War of the Sun and Moon in medieval Equestria, young Spike, a knight in training, doesn't know who he can trust when a band of outlaws accuse his guardian, Lord Tirek, of being responsible for his father's death. His suspicions grow when he meets a young colt who claims to have been kidnapped by Tirek. Soon Spike will have to choose between his duty to his guardian and his duty to his heart.

A nice quiet neighborhood in Cloudsdale, home to a little yellow filly with a pink mane, her sick mother and her father who works long hours to provide for them. This little filly's quiet, kind, and well behaved. The pride of any parent. The one you wish was yours. Her life's gotta be perfect. Right?
