Shield and Shadow Part 2: Renaissance
The return of an old threat pushes Luna to travel Equestria in search of answers to the past. And of the future.
A thousand years after Princess Luna's banishment, an old flame will return, bringing a potential threat to Equestria. Out of desperation and driven by conflicted feelings, a journey will begin, taking a group of ponies to the furthest reaches of Equestria. Ancient and lost secrets that even the Princesses have forgotten, and new revelations that bring into question the nature of those celestial ponies will be unearthed, pushing the adventurers into a spiral of mystery, discovery, and tragedy.
