It has been months since that fateful night, where upon the Lunar princess, Luna, descended from the moon and was purged of the corruption of the Nightmare by the elements of harmony. Since then, much to the dismay of the media, she has yet to appear outside the castle walls of Canterlot. Even more concerning, the Solar princess, Celestia, has become more and more erratic recently. Favoring to sequester herself within her private office with her secretaries and advisors rather than attending day court, this has called into question the princesses health.

Now during the night of the gala, Equestria holds its breath as royals, nobels and gentry alike wonder where the future may lead. And as a thestral climbs the Canterhorn, they might not like the answer.
