He absolutely cannot remember a thing from his past—where he came from or what he really is. All Iwano can remember is that he has a sister, a deck of cards, a yellow mouse, a saddlebag, a ball-like capsule device, and the dreaded Dark Storms that had passed in the city that had cost him to become faithless with his friends and disbelieve in the magic of friendship. Thus, his life would end soon without origin and meaning, until the six have come.

After I had been diagnosed with amnesia a year ago, I was curious of my past. Unfortunately, I had eventually given up on it and just focused on my studies in school, trying to make my parents proud. One night had changed me and brought back my curiosity to my past...

An equine of that night had ignited my curiosity of who I was.

An arcane Alicorn questing for the influences and virtues of Harmony, Iwano Imagination has set hoof in Equestria in a mission to conquer his newfound dark element: Dissonance. The adventure of Iwano with Dissonance in his spirit will solely reflect Equestria's fate and his friendships with allies and foes. Twists and turns, returns, mysteries, the unexpected and amazing dangers will all no doubt be orchestrated by Dissonance, as Iwano’s black-tainted heart will be tested to choose the path of pure light…or pitch-blackness. The Mane Six, pony folks, Luna and Celestia will each be having their own challenges that they would never forget from the friend with a gray heart…

Twilight Sparkle distrusts the newcomer. Ever since his arrival, Twilight can't help sensing a feeling towards the green Alicorn. To trust him or intercept? she asks herself. As she ventures through his heart while masquerading with friendliness, she would trigger Equestria's newest and most powerful threat combined. Will she ever trust and save him?

Rarity fancies the newcomer. Falling for the arcane sweetheart, she wants to get their hearts together. As she ventures through his eyes, she would find his true gem, and her scream. Will she shine in the beautiful blackness?

Pinkie Pie loves his crazy attitude, though hidden. It's like she never partied with somepony so hyper...yet destructive. As she ventures through his smile, she would discover his true cackle. Will she make him smile truly in the end?

Applejack has to stay strong. She must, even if it means enduring the new pony's misdeeds. As she ventures through his words, she would find his hidden evil. Will she lift the unforeseen destruction?

Rainbow Dash despises his skills. She prides herself as Equestria's best flier, but will this Alicorn take her title? As she ventures through his winds, she would unmask the speed of his darkness. Will she surpass his wings of blackness?

Fluttershy is scared of him. She's worried that he might hurt her next, but doesn't realize that they could be the same. As she ventures through his feelings, she would unlock his heart, and release the monster. Will she tame the beast within him?

Celestia feels weak. She trusts the mysterious visitor with a shining hope that he would be saved, but felt her heart shattering of sunlight. As the bearer of the sun, she must brighten the hope of Equestria against the new evil. The sovereign sun shall burn by the green flames . As she ventures through his power, she would face her darkest opponent ever. Will she defeat the great threat?

Luna has nightmares. She can’t choose whether to hate or trust the green Alicorn, all because of her nightmares. The serene moon shall embrace the bewildering dark moon. As she ventures the arcane Alicorn’s dream, she would find the “star” deep under his blackness. Will she face the Alicorn of her nightmares?
