(This fanfic is a direct continuation to IDW's comic book miniseries Feats of Friendship. It is highly recommended you read that first.)

Long, long ago, before the unification of the three pony tribes in the very first Warming of the Hearth, a fourth tribe of ponies, the Thracians, were forced into the shadows of history. Their very existence forgotten by the ponies of Equestria.

One such Thracian pony, Swift Foot, has found herself in a crossroads between her family and her tribe, and the friends she had made during her time in Equestria. Can peace truly be made between these long separated factions? And what role does Swift Foot and her friends have to play in all of this?
