A unicorn awakes to find herself in a most troublesome position. Her memories are missing, her cutie mark is gone, and she's somehow managed to shatter her horn, leaving her unsure as to who she is and with barely enough magic to get by in the strange, otherworldly city she's found herself in. On top of that, the only creature who claims to be capable of helping her is about two feet tall, can barely breathe fire, and has tongue sharp enough to cut through even the most disciplined pony's patience. At least things couldn't get much worse... right?
