Love and friendship are two things that come naturally to most of the inhabitants of Equestria except for the changelings. No one knew if they were even capable of feeling such emotions or if they ever even tried to. One day in order to improve relations with the pony-like insects Princess Celestia sends a letter to the current changeling queen's daughter, Chrysalis. This letter contains an invitation to her own personal school, Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns.
It is there where Chrysalis experiences friendship for the very first time, but as she gets older her friendship will be tested when the changelings food stores of love run out. The very same love that is quite plentiful amongst the ponies of Equestria.
