Equestria's magic is gone.

Without magic, equine society collapses.

Without magic, nothing grows.

Without magic, ponies can't even stand up on their own.

Equestria's only hope for survival lies in the mysterious ape-like creatures that arrived when the magic left.

Unable to communicate or take care of itself, the pony population finds itself reduced to livestock to a race that knows nothing about them.

As humankind tries to find out where these creatures come from and why they are here, one pony is just trying to come to terms with his new status, while his 'owners' learn how to take care of him.
