While cleaning the farm house's attic one day, Applejack comes across an old trunk full of maps, pieces of armor, even a sword. According to Granny Smith the trunk belonged to her ancestor, Apple Slice. She digs through the contents, eager to learn more about her ancestor and near the bottom she spots a worn leather bound book. It's pages tell the tale of a fantastic quest to reclaim a homeland, filled with monsters of all shapes, and perils of all sizes. A most unexpected journey indeed.
This is the story of how long ago, one unassuming normal in every way farm-mare came to shape the history of all Equestria. How two races divided by war and fear were united by a forbidden love, and the struggle of a Unicorn to unite Equestria against the coming night.
An adaptation of JRR Tolkien's The Hobbit set into the world of My Little Pony, based on the movies directed by Peter Jackson, with changes made to do justice to the mlp mythos and canon. The races of middle earth translate as follows.
Hobbits and Men will be earth ponies and pegasi
Wizards shall be Unicorns
Elves will be Deer
Dwarves will be Diamond Dogs
Orcs will be Centaurs, and Goblins Gargoyles.
Dragons of course, will be Dragons.
