Ponies across Equestria see Hearth's Warming as a happy and carefree holiday. Nature knows no such concept. When an asteroid strikes the ground and raises a thick blanket of dust the week before Hearth's Warming, Equestria is faced with a winter storm the likes of which it has never seen before. As Ponyville's resident princess, it's up to Twilight to lead the town to safety, and she knows that her friends will be by her side.

She does not know, however, how much she'll need them . . . or how close she'll get to losing them.

Orders. They're something Rarity's been getting more and more of lately, and they've been causing her no end of stress. When she finally cracks under the pressure, there's only one pony who can offer her help. Fluttershy, however, has her own problems to deal with, and they're just as dire as Rarity's.

Perhaps they could cooperate and find a mutually beneficial solution . . .
