Set 150 years before Littlepip, to the north of the great cities of Manehattan and Fillydalphia, Red Tree was a simple farmer in Mane, with his dad, mom, and three sisters.

Life was... stable; clearing radioactive ash off the plants, dealing with the Mob, and keeping 50 year old technology ticking over. Just eking out a brute existence.

Then, well, everything fell apart.

Raiders, paramilitary organizations, unwilling augmentations, and accidentally ruining a Stable dweller's life.
