It has been 15 years since King Sombra was defeated and the Crystal Empire was saved, but one faithful night, at the Grand Galloping Gala, commemorating Princess Twilight Sparkle's 15th coronation anniversary, the festivities are disrupted by a clan of shadowy, pony-like monsters and a mysterious swirling black hole opens up in the sky, growing in size every minute. Further investigation reveals a horrifying surprise, King Sombra has returned....

With the fate of Equestria once more in their hooves, Twilight and her friends travel from their home to the undiscovered west to seek out a long-lost Equestrian ally to aid them in their quest to save the kingdom from Sombra and his new Umbrum army. Along the way, they'll uncover the mysteries surrounding a new type of magic, and a tragic story of love and corruption.

Inspired by Skybolt and The L-Train's symphonic metal operas, "Fall of an Empire" and "Moonrise".

The hit new video game Helldivers 2™ has just released, and Luna is desperate to play it. However, this excitement doesn't last long, as the servers appear to be full. Now stuck in a seemingly endless queue, Luna needs to find some way to kill time.

She'd rather be killing space bugs.

In the dead of winter, Equestria celebrates the arrival of a new year. On this special day, Celestia and Luna make a show of raising the sun and lowering the moon simultaneously, allowing their subjects to know the exact moment that they can begin partying.

Luna has some reservations about this.

To ascend the throne, an Alicorn must take it by force. Twilight has been raised by her Aunt, a horrific dictator, vowing one day to steal the throne from her. Twilight wants revenge for events that happened 1500 years ago. Her wings, her power; all of it was taken from her along with something she thought lost forever.

Upon moving to Ponyville, Twilight pretends to play by her Aunt's rules while secretly plotting her downfall. She meets a few mares that she 'convinces' to help with her devious plans. Celestia is always watching, and to make matters worse, Luna is returning from the moon soon.

The question is: Of the moon, the sun, and the void...Who is the real monster?
