Twenty years had past since Princess Luna was freed of Nightmare Moon. Twilight Sparkle and her friends, now called the Orsi, grew old and gave birth to foals of their own who were to carry on their legacy in the Elements of Harmony.

The New Bearers. The children who trained under their parents to try and fully understand friendship when it came time for them to protect ponykind.

But then, one of the New Bearers was charged with betrayal and sent into exile. Equestria's faith in the Elements of Harmony dimmed, and with it, their future.

Now, seven years later, a lone unicorn travels to Ponyville in search of his memory only to find the town burning and its population massacred. The unicorn must set out to find the New Bearer that was exiled nearly a decade ago so, together, they can stop an evil that threatens not only Equestria, but the whole planet.
