"Your brand is Thoughts of Others. By thinking about a specific individual, you can determine their location, physical condition and state of mind. This ability becomes more precise the more intimately you know said individual."

That's what a weird voice said to me in a dream one night, and now, whenever I think about somepony, I can't get them out of my head! Not just that, but I've got this weird symbol on my Cutie Mark, too!

Who was that, and why do I have this power now? And just what's a 'brand' anyway? It's definitely not a brand of sugar, I can tell you that now!
