Friendship has never made any impact on Silver Dust's life. He made friends, yes, but there was no emotion there. They were more allies or followers than they really were friends. They watched each others' backs because they had to to get anywhere in life. They never liked each other.

Now he's moving to Ponyville to get away from the city life. After all, the city life is the only thing that kept him from having friends. Maybe if he lived in a small town where he had no worries, he would make better friends.

This story takes place at the same time as How the Tables Turn.

This story doesn't really have that much substance to it. It's really just meant to introduce Silver Dust and talk about his past, and I threw in a conflict, more to hold your interest than anything else.

PS: Yes, the main character is my OC. No, he does not represent me. While I did move from a big city to a small town, Ive never had a problem with friendship. Just dispelling these ideas before they start.
