The war that pitted pony against pony, the conflict of Sun and Moon a thousand years before present-day Equestria, may forever mar the history books. But shortly after that war, ponies and communities had to deal with the fallout of the turmoil and conflict created in the process. One affected individual, a toughened old war hero named Lithe Wing, thought he would die alone in the heart of Equestria--his story untold.
