A breed of warrior ponies whose existence had faded over time and vanished beyond legends lives deep in the underworlds of Equestria. Bloody and ferocious fights, life threatening treachery, and unimaginable deaths are common place in every pony's life in the dark and dangerous world. Wars are fought between multiple houses of ponies for wealth and power whilst the entire surface world is unknown to them. One particular pony questions the lifestyle and finds that he disapproves of the laws of the land. He goes off to find answers and freedom beyond the light and security of the underground cities into the dark unknown and beyond.
