I, Talon Sharpbeak, am a griffon, banished from my clan. I try to start a new life in Equestria, but everything turns against me from the moment I enter the Equestrian borders.

How will I cope with all the injustice and the corrupt nobles of Equestria? Or will I strike back at them? Read and find out.

(First Person. Characters and themes will be added once they appear in the story.)

It's quite the regular Friday, until when I walk out the door, I notice that the sky is flashing pink, and I also smell the sweet smell of fudge. I then find a girl, passed out in a forest, and bring her home, where only more questions arise... Who is she, and how did she get here?
