Discord's been settling in, if you can call anything Discord does "settling", to life as Fluttershy's housemate. He's friends now with both Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, he's become an extraordinarily annoying second mentor for Twilight, he and Celestia are even making attempts to repair their old friendship. But what comes as close as Discord can get to "ordinary" life is haunted by a secret he's sharing with none of his new friends; only Celestia knows. He's been exiled from the Q Continuum because he's on trial. And there's a very significant chance they're going to take his powers away and make him mortal.
