(Human universe)

Three years of never ending war, three years without her older siblings and three years of becoming an adult.
Now fourteen years old, Applebloom tries to deal with running a farm, which is more like a factory now, and balancing school on top of it. She isn't even sure if her brother and sister are alive or not, not having heard from them in a year. Her cousin Babs seed was sent to the farm to get away from the fighting which has spread outwards from the crystal empire with people joining Sombra's cause here and there. Scootaloo also ends up on the farm after her guardian Rainbow Dash joined the air force.

With fear and pressure weighing heavily on her shoulders, Applebloom has to learn how to be strong, before she crumbles.
