Princess Luna must take back what is hers, and learn about herself in the process...

Equestria and its allies, including the newly reintroduced Crystal Kingdom, have pushed back their aggressors and won a short but brutal war against the extremist gryphon empire... but it has come at a price--Celestia, the divine, the unkillable, struck down in the dark by a toxin none save the gryphons even knew existed.

Now the responsibility of rebuilding and ruling Equestria falls straight onto Luna's back--or it would have. She has a more immediate problem in dealing with a power-hungry, dominating unicorn known as Trine, who has stolen her throne and locked her in her own dungeon. Now she has to get out and get even--but if she can't trust her own little ponies, who can she trust? And what about Trine's shifty second-in-command, singer-turned-swordfighter Sole Star?

Meanwhile, Canterlot is being blasted by a massive storm, and Blaze Bright thinks she knows who's behind it. She's going to put a stop to it, and so help her, Sole Star's sister Solemn is going to come along for the ride!
