A cold, mysterious winter overtakes Equestria, its ponies finding themselves growing bitter and hateful towards each other. Blizzards rage, freezing cities and ravaging the skies.

Ponyville, home to the Elements of Harmony, find themselves as the eye of the storm as Twilight and her friends try to deal with the sudden blizzards, while helping the refugees flooding into the small town.

A very old evil has been sleeping patiently and is slowly starting to wake again - but can Twilight stop it in time before Equestria becomes desolate?

(Takes place in early Season 1, before Winter Wrap Up)
