A filly from Trottingham once had a dream of becoming a nurse - but her natural ineptitude and clumsiness put an end to that. Taking her sisters' advice, Dilly Dally became a clown and moved to the quiet seaside town of Dodge to make a living, but things aren't going great and life is getting pretty boring.

But one fateful night, as the stars aid in the escape of Nightmare Moon, Dilly Dally is made aware of an entirely new threat to the stability of Equestria as her wish comes true - a new thing falls from the sky and will drag her along on his journey to complete a mission he doesn't understand.

Truth comes to light as darkness returns in My Little Pony: Dark Harmony, the very first story of the Inanis saga.
