After 10 long years of war and suffering, Sombra succeeded. He won.

That was five years ago.

Now, the princesses have gone missing, what remains of the Bearers scattered, and Equestria and its people are suffering. Hope is a commodity, and it is one quickly snuffed out by the iron hoof of King Sombra's rule.

The spark of harmony and friendship has faded, but it hasn't died. Whispers of a resistance are heard across the land, but only rumors and dead ends are found.

Can someone step up and reignite the flame? Can someone rally the broken, scornful citizens and restore harmony?

For the sake of Equestria, all ponies can do is hope.
