You're kind of new in town. You really, REALLY enjoyed playing cards back home. So as luck would have it, you heard about a small club nearby that just so happens to serve beer and have card games. Nice.
With Equestria blasted to ruin ponies looked towards the stars and found glory. Then the stars found ponies and things got real bad. Still there's treasure somewhere on this planet kid. And we'll find it. Trust me.
