Ever since her eventful encounter with Twilight Sparkle a while ago, Trixie hopes to reclaim some happiness and glory despite her growth as a pony. While nothing awful happened to her since she last left Ponyville, Trixie consistently wonders if there's something better out there for her that could solve her woes. Much to her luck, an ancient and valuable treasure might be her ticket to happiness.

However, her journey is far from effortless.

Upon encountering a group known as the Golden Guild during her travels, Trixie reluctantly agrees to join their ranks as they hunt down the legendary Talon's Crown. And as it turns out, Trixie's allies are stranger than she could've ever predicted.
