Octavia Philharmonica—a musical prodigy, and rising star in the musical subculture of Equestria—finds that having what you want in life is not always what you need. Sometimes reaching all your hopes and dreams can be empty, and meaningless. This leads her to embark on a journey of sorts, not one of adventure, or thrills, but one of wisdom, and understanding. Through all the trials and tribulations, she might just find the hope which she has long since forgotten.
