Meet Phoenix, he's kind of the son of Celestia and Blueblood, he thinks, he doesn't really know for sure. All of his life he's spent in the royal laboratory, getting tested and experimented on, he rarely got any interaction, sure he remembers old friends, snippits here and there. But for the most part he has been alone and he will be alone for as far as he can tell. That is, until the head scientist gets replaced with a spry young batpony who pressures Phoenix into being nice and doesn't take no for an answer. Maybe together they can figure out why Phoenix is down here.
