History speaks of a purple mare who, with her friends, family and new family, put to end the attack of Queen Chrysalis and her Changeling army. That was common knowledge to those living in Equestria. What history doesn't speak of however, are the struggles the residents of Canterlot endured during the attack.

This is the story of a few ponies who encountered not just the hostile changelings, but a mysterious brown earth pony who would do his best to guard their lives.
