When the megaspells fell, it was the death of the old Equestria. The death of civilization, the death of society, the death of so many creatures all at once. In many ways, however, it was also the birth of something new. And while some mourned, others celebrated. But did they celebrate birth or death?

The city of New Pegas was born the day fire rained from the sky. A city of gambling and vice, the ponies there care little for what happens outside their walls. While the rest of the world mourns, this city continues in a cycle of perpetual partying. But not for long.

An opportunity emerges in the city of New Pegas: a guest arrives to the party over two centuries late. He brings with him a chance to change everything, a chance for rebirth. What will be the outcome of this party? Will it be something to be mourned... or celebrated?
