Eris was tormented, tortured and haunted by the memories of her closest friends and allies being torn apart by the Son of Oryx, Crota. Eris witnessed them slain and was powerless to stop the destruction of her mind and the twisted memories of her friends haunt her, the horrors never left her due to Crota seeking her out in vain. Years she spent hiding and gathering information about the darkness that lurked below while her friends bodies decayed in the dust.

Shin Malphur, a guardian, legend, friend, was one of the six that went down, except he suffered a much different fate then the others. He had lived, something even the Son of Oryx hadn't anticipated to be possible. However, he wasn't in the Solar System, no, he was somewhere that defies all human physics, a place called Equestria. War has followed in his path.
