The day of Princess Celestia's birthday has arrived. This was supposed to be a happy occasion, not only for Celestia, but all of her subjects and loved ones. But all that she can think of is what transpired on her birthday all of those years ago.

Celestia has kept secrets from her loving public. But she fears that one day they might all become known by the ponies of Equestria. Despite her fears, Celestia has managed to keep them locked away for thousands of years.

But all of her hard work might be for nothing, for when the one secret that Celestia has tried her hardest to keep buried six feet under comes back from the dead, everything changes for her.
