After making one too many mistakes, Baron La Croix finds himself rudely exiled from the spirit world, the Loa ordered to either fix a great imbalance in the mortal world, or face the ultimate punishment for his sins. Unfortunately, the rude, loudmouthed Loa knows absolutely nothing about ponies, let alone where to begin his journey... but he soon meets a zebra well-versed in the Old Ways who is willing to help him in more ways than he would ever imagine.

First story in the Songs for Lost Children series.
