This is an introduction to the research and investigation of a new sickness that started plaguing Equestria, there is little known to the moment but as head of the research team and the new born health department I Shadow Spark am on the proses of writing down everything that could be important to help to find a cure and or contain the spread of the disease. In this volume I should work explaining what we know at the current day, having never feel the need to keep time other than the pleasantries of knowing my date of birth and other things that are alike and of little importance there is no record of time and history seems to be just recording of mere memory, in order to understand the progress of our work I am beginning the very first record of time that is actually part of a serious attempt to record time in Equestria.
