Vinyl Scratch and Octavia have been together for a long time, living together and sharing their lives with each other, but when they decided to take on the next step and adopt a foal to call their own, they find a foal with a very special talent in the very art that they love.

Equestria, on the surface a peaceful, happy world with a few minor problems that surface, but like an iceberg these problems are only the tip of something far worst. As nightmares from the royal sister’s past start to return to haunt them, something sinister is in the works to overthrow them and the other princesses, but a new champion has been chosen to help stand against the nightmares, and thwart the plots against the royal family.
But who is the new champion and what events lead to him being chosen by the Alicorn that resides within the Crystal Nexus.
