There's an old story about the first Hearts and Hooves Day. It took place long ago, in the lost kingdom of Asgard. It begins with a lonely prince brewing a love poison for a beautiful princess, and it ends with the war that wiped out the alicorns. It's the story of Loki and Baldur, the story of Sleipnir, and the story of how a dragon came, a kingdom fell, and Chaos reigned.

Part of the Borderworld.
