All hope seems lost when Tirek roams free in Equestria thanks to the help of Discord. What he doesn't know is that he is not the only one playing a two-faced game.

Deep down under the Castle of Friendship, a building that stands for peace and harmony, lies one single cell, containing one single inhabitant, buried under the castle and under the personal supervision of Twilight Sparkle herself.

In this alternate timeline, the Crystal Empire returned successfully, and now it's up to Celestia to stop it from rampaging all over Equestria. Since it's a short story, there isn't much to say. Enjoy!

Mandrels whole life was about nothing but repeating the previous days. Nothing interesting, nothing exciting. But when Discord awakes and starts his rampage in Equestria, he is one of the few who finds enjoyment in chaos...and doesn't want it to end.
