The future isn't looking bright for the Apple family. Against her brother's wishes, the Caribou have placed Applejack under the temporary ownership of Flim and Flam, two unscrupulous con men with a long-simmering grudge against her. Big Macintosh, frustrated at his inability to change a world growing more rancid and rotten every day, has undertaken the dangerous task of seeking out and aiding the resistance movement against the Caribou. Both are taking the first steps down a grim and unpleasant path, and neither will reach the end unchanged.

Canon for the Fall of Equestria universe.
