One summer night, Twilight Sparkle begins to suffer from terrifying, apocalyptic nightmares. As these horrors persist, she asks Princess Luna for help. All the while she struggles to deal with her faltering relationship with Rainbow Dash.

Things take a turn for the worse when the cataclysmic events Twilight had been witnessing in her dreams begin happening in the real world. As the Mane 6 and the other citizens of Equestria get engaged in a bitter struggle for survival, Twilight and Rainbow Dash begin to reconnect as the matters that had separated them become trivial in the ruins of the sites they had once cherished.

However, just when a glimmer of hope begins to show through the dark nature of their environment, Twilight sees something in her nightmares that forces her to make the ultimate sacrifice and will forever change the way she sees other ponies.

Edit 2023:
Woooowie! Been a long time since this huh? But I won't waste your time, you're here for the good stuff!

This story idea was a ponification of another story idea I had back in 2012. Obviously in 2017 I was far newer to writing and wasn't familiar with the site, not to mention not even a hundredth of the pony fan I am today, including this painfully long Long Description. I've abandoned the idea long ago, but now that I'm back into writing I decided to make a bit of a challenge to start randomly updating this.

I don't care too much if no one reads this; it's been tracked by only 8 people as of now so I'm not expecting anything to come of it, but it'll be fun to see this receive an occasional update now and then x3

Enjoy the crazy ride!
