Set in a war between the Solar Empire and Lunar Republic.

Twilight, Rainbow, and Rarity have to live with their choice on siding with the Solar Empire. Are their decisions good for them? How do they know for sure? How does it effect the lives around them?

Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Applejack find peace in the Lunar Republic. They are still concerned about their families and hope they are doing their best. Will conflict stir when Discord threatens to finish them off for good? Is Luna starting to wonder if she did the right thing starting this Republic?

And what of the background ponies? How are their lives changed because of the side they chose?

It all leads down to the start of The War.
