After millennia of reflexive compassion, the abdicant diarchy have retired from princesshood but not from meddling. Benevolence is a hard habit to break. So, when a haunted orphanage is discovered on the unsettled frontiers of Equestria, two retired princesses arrive to shepherd the dead to their rest.

Three ponies sit together in a room. Two are innocent. Each of the two innocents have two possible suspects, including one another. The third must pretend to be in the same predicament. How can the two innocents recognize each other as such and catch the true culprit? Conversely, how may the guilty pony redirect suspicion from herself?

Maggie Wilson (26), on a smoke break from her dead end convenience store job in the California mountains, encounters the divine god-princess of a dead world. The princess asks for her help. Mag says yes.

So how do you resurrect a dead world?
