Sombra is a Pony with a terrible decision to make. The Empire which he serves stands upon the brink of destruction, with a horrid foe at its borders; one which it has never faced before, and one against which it could never win. Faced with no other options, the Head of Magistrate of the Crystal Empire must make a decision that no Pony should ever have to make. How far would you go, to save an Empire? Would you become a monster to fight the monstrous? Utter ruination, or hatred and despair?
