Mayor Mare struggles to keep moving forward, with the help from somepony she would have never expected it from.

I used to be somepony.
Somepony this town could depend on.
Now, I'm just an old mare with nothing to do.


Mayor Mare sits alone in the Town Hall. The years have taken their toll on this once proud pony, as she withers away behind a desk. As life passes her by, she wonders if Ponyville truly needs her anymore. A certain princess comes to her and offers her wisdom to help guide Mayor Mare out of the darkness. She will either overcome these personal demons, or she will succumb to them.
