Sludge lived his adult life as a con artist and thief, deceiving others for his own personal gain.

His latest scheme was, in his mind, the most lucrative yet: using a naïve Spike to live in a pony castle and enjoy gilded luxury.

But this time, he will learn the eternal risk of being a con artist: one day, you will con the wrong creature. As some creatures can have powerful friends.

But Sludge will learn more from than he expected, as a young drake teaches him about what true power is.

A rewrite to the ending of Father Knows Beast.
