A series of mysterious events leads Twilight to throw a party in Canterlot, one where everypony is invited. But the arrival of an unparalleled evil, older than the world itself, irreversibly alters Equestria's fate.

"Do the innocent pay for the crimes of the guilty? Of course they do. That's the fate of the weak."

Author's Note: This should be an enjoyable read even if you are unfamiliar with Magic: The Gathering. Oh, and the first chapter is the Slice of Life one. S**t gets real after that.
