He was a thousand-year-old tyrant unicorn with a heart as black as night, she was a twenty-something confectionery worker, it could never have worked. Yet, with a bitter cold winter upon Equestria, two lonely souls come to discover that you shouldn't worry over what you once had, be it a solid relationship or a mighty empire with a ton of slaves, but rather that you should simply learn to appreciate the simple things that life can offer you.

Elsewhere, Princess Celestia attempts to stop a nuclear war with the newly reformed Crystal Empire.
