Centuries after the legend of the Mane 6, a mysterious unicorn singlehandedly takes control of the throne after defeating with the Royal Sisters. Under his rule, an intensifying air of xenophobia amongst the populace drives forward a new age of militarization and conquest.
Since the fall of Celestia, Reverie the alicorn and her draconequus friend, Clamor, have lived in hiding. As they journey across Equestria and the lands beyond, they will encounter unexpected allies, forming an uncanny group of six heroes to fight for the future of ponykind.

Inspired by a thread on /mlp/, this fic is an experiment to weave a new Mane 6, an alicorn, a draconequus, a changeling, a dragon, a zebra and a griffon. Through their interactions and adventures, the story will explore their struggles with identity, heritage, acceptance, desire and purpose. A sincere thanks to everyone who posted in that thread!
