Once upon a time, there was a world, and then that world died, except for one little island. On that island, the last of humanity fight to preserve what they are and what's left of what they were, led by their champion, the vengeance of a nation...
But what happens when that vengeance is unleashed upon Equestria? And more to the point, why would it be when the ponies of Equestria are - to their knowledge - innocent of any crime? Twilight Sparkle and her friends may soon discover that they do not want to know why a mysterious being has descended upon their world, or why he carries five locks of severed mane with him...
First MLP fic. Various disclaimers within, but in case you miss them (somehow): this is inspired by the Conversion Bureau stories. That isn't my idea. My particular spin is, but that's a different question. Many thanks must go to the writers of the various TCB stories for inspiring me to write this one. :-)
