Shin Dowe,
A stallion who can see what's in ponies hearts through his dreams, the sides of them that they hide from everypony.
Many thought he was crazy, some call him insane, but all of them thinks he belongs in an asylum.
Shin moved away from his hometown in Dodge City to get away from those who hate him and decided to live in Ponyville.
He wants to try and get a fresh start, but that means he has to keep his thoughts under lock and key.
He thought, no, he knew nopony could understand.
But one nightly walk allowed him to meet a certain bat-pony, who made him realize that the world's not perfect.
It never was.

Takes place after "Bats!"
