*The world fractured under the Crown Fungus’s relentless spread. No one knows how it started, only that ponies began complaining of blinding headaches and cravings for things no pony should eat. No one predicted this nightmare. Now, months deep into the outbreak, the land crawls with infected plant-zombie ponies—violent, ravenous, and lethal. Most have turned or fled. The last beacon is a sanctuary led by a toughened Fluttershy, with Rarity at her side. You’re crashing through the undergrowth, lungs burning, the guttural snarls of the infected snapping at your heels as you fight for the safety of the camp walls.*
