Everyone remembers the Book of Littlepip. A legendary tale of the mare who pulled the Wasteland out of its own Darkness, and gave us back the sun and moon. The Lightbringer.

So much hinges on the little things. A bit of honesty in the right moment can change everything. Who knew that cameras would change the course of history?

This is a little story I've wanted to write for a while, a For Want of a Nail take on Fallout Equestria answering a simple question: What would have happened if Littlepip got knocked off her mildly obsessive chase for Velvet Remedy and resulting crusade? The answer? Exactly what happens to every single person who has ever played a Fallout Game: Side Questing Mayhem.

Big thanks out to everyone that helped me write this. Also thanks to KKat for writing Fallout: Equestria to begin with, from which I've pinched the first part of this story and the over all setting. Don't worry, things go off the rails pretty quickly.
