Lyra Heartstrings, is many things. A well known member in the Canterlot Orchestra, human fanatic and Anthropologist, laughing stock of the Canterlot and Manehatten Science Institutes, a member of a secret guard sect under Princess Celestia's command, and a damn good mare.

But now… now she's a mare with a mission.

Lyra has come across an old scroll detailing her favorite subject, Humans and the Precursors. She had no idea how this piece of parchment came to be, but she was enthralled. Even more so when she found small snippets detailing a temple known as the Discipulina, and five objects said to be hidden along the way in secret locations.

Wanting nothing more then to prove everyone she was right, she sets out in search of these objects, and the temple! And along the way, she gets some company to join her… and not in the way she expected either.
