When raiders attack Stable 45 and kidnap his sister, Security Chief Shadow sets out to track them down across the vast wastes of the Equestrian southwest. Along the way he uncovers a threat that most ponies had either forgotten or thought long-since destroyed in the war. Can he and his new friends stand against the gathering evil? Or is the wasteland doomed to fall forever, with no hope of ever rising again?

Note: this is my first attempt at a story so feed back is welcome. I thank you kindly for giving me a try. As a side note, this story is set thirty years before Kkat's FoE and on the other side of the country from where Little Pip trots around.
