Struggling with the weight of her memories and the constant threats all around her, the haunted Earth pony is joined by a group of ponies just as desperate as she is - a faithful unicorn illusionist looking for salvation, a hunted dragon and his pony ‘daughter’, a changeling prostitute hounded by an obsessed suitor, and a mysterious Dashite with a bullseye on her back.
Together, the group struggle against sadistic raiders, slavers, maniacal cultists and Enclave hit squads as they journey north, guided by the visions held within a strange pink memory orb. Their destination: the Crystal Empire, which might just hold the key to Equestria’s salvation… a living, breathing Princess.
