"Winds of Change" is an emotionally charged narrative that unfolds in the vibrant, bustling town of Maretime Bay, where Hitch grapples with the relentless pressures of his demanding job. The story delves into the intricate facets of stress and the profound impact it can have on an individual's life.

Hitch, once a symbol of unwavering law and order, finds himself weighed down by the responsibilities and challenges that come with his role as the town's protector. Stress becomes a relentless companion, a shadow that looms over his every step.

As Hitch navigates the intricate maze of his duties, he must confront not only the external challenges, such as protests, riots, and the burdens of modernization but also the internal struggles that threaten to consume him.

The real question here is will he be able to pull himself out, with redemption and happiness, or will the darkness consume him?

Well, only one way to find out really...

Hitch has always loved Sunny.

The circumstances never allowed him to say anything.

And now it's too late.

For as long as Sunny can remember, there have been tales of a strange hermit living deep in the Everfree Forest, the most dangerous place in Equestria. Of course, nopony could ever prove if this was true. After all, who in their right mind would actually go there? Unfortunately for Sunny, she may not have a choice, as during a test flight on the Mare Stream, she and Zipp crash land in the middle of that very forest. With no way out and timberwolves just waiting to pounce, what else can she do but hope that the tales are true?

And just who, or what, is this hermit supposed to be, anyway?

Sunny Starscout's house is in ruins after the incident with Sprout. Now she's staying temporarily with Pipp and Zipp in Zypher Heights. There, she meets someone she never knew she needed. A mom named Sky Liner, and a sister named Moon Mist.

Now, she has to figure out how she fits in with her new family dynamic and what it is like to build trust from the ground up with ponies that should have been there from the beginning. She also has to realize, sometimes friends simply won't always like your family.

Sunny Starscout managed to bring all three pony races together bringing harmony and friendship once more. But the Law is the Law and Hitch insists that Sunny must spend at least one night in Jail for all the by-Laws she broke. Cuddling ensues.

(Spoilers for those who still haven't seen My Little Pony: A New Generation yet. Featured from 11/09/21 to 11/10/21.)

Sunny Starscout and her friends have managed to restore magic to Equestria by getting the three pony tribes to unite again. It seems like all is right with the world as far as most ponies are concerned.

But Sunny still wonders what could've caused the bright future Princess Twilight Sparkle had planned for Equestria to fall apart, and how the ponies could've grown to fear and hate each other. And her search for answers yields an unusual result in the form of Princess Twilight herself.

Being brought into an Equestria so different from her own, Twilight is confronted with a horrifying fact: Her legacy has been tainted, defined by the collapse of harmony between ponies after her time. And Sunny will soon learn just what it is that Princess Twilight was trying to do to keep the ponies together.
