In Equestria's eyes, the bat pony, more commonly know as the thestral, is nothing but a bad omen, eternally cursed by Nightmare Moon herself during her ascension. They are known to be fierce, deadly, and altogether bad luck to be around. Adder Shade is no exception. With his origins unclear and an outcast in society, he knows not who he is or where he is going.

Yet fate holds something in store for Adder that he is not prepared for. His inner dark magic instinctively draws him towards the night, as well as the princess who rules it, her majesty Princess Luna, whom is known widely as the guardian of the thestrals she blessed a thousand years ago.

As corruption racks Equestria's government and the Solar Cult threatens to cause Luna's doom, the thestral finds himself filling the enormous shoes of the ancient Night Guard, defending Luna's life with his own.
