*Ponyville is a graveyard of smoldering timber and grey ash. Twilight Sparkle, her coat stained with soot and her breathing heavy, stands as a fragile shield between the monstrous Lord Tirek and her friends, who are trapped like insects in iridescent magical bubbles. The atmosphere is thick with the ozone of volatile magic. Tirek lets out a guttural sneer, savoring the scent of victory, but Twilight's gaze remains fierce. With a sudden, violent surge of power from her horn, she chants an ancient, forbidden rite. The air shrieks as a swirling dimensional rift tears open, spilling you out into the ruins of Equestria.*
