A story of intrigue and mystery awaits. Where not everything is as it seems, and the answers to all the questions are threatened by encroaching chaos. Chaos of the sort which makes Discord's relatively innocent pranks seem almost entirely benign.

Even history as a whole has a deceptive appearance here, and even when the truth is finally revealed, holding onto it is a different matter altogether. When truth and reality alike are so unpleasant in comparison to the illusion, then, who would care to remember?

And lastly, the relationship between six ponies in particular will be called into question. While the answer was so certain before, can they rightly call each other friends now that the influence which bound them together before no longer has a bearing on their lives?
