The year is 2217.
It has been two long centuries since the Fall, the ponies of Equestria have no longer any sense of mercy. The radiation turned a rather large number of these into absolute monsters, mutated and deformed. The small number of ponies that still hold their sanity dear are locked within the safety of the stables, of which few remain. One stable in particular, Stable 27, is where the story of a young mare will take place. Comet Tail has lived all her life in the stable, along with her little sister, Daisy Shine. Their parents, Red Rose and Sharp Sword, had left the stable with a want to know the outside world.
They have yet to return.
A few years after the departure of the young mare's parents, Comet Tail has been driven to a point of nonchalant craze, which can only be cured by leaving the warm and cozy home she has known her entire life.
By now I'm sure your wondering why I'm telling you this?
And all I have to say:
Is that some nightmares, are far more real than they seem....
