Ponies across Equestria see Hearth's Warming as a happy and carefree holiday. Nature knows no such concept. When an asteroid strikes the ground and raises a thick blanket of dust the week before Hearth's Warming, Equestria is faced with a winter storm the likes of which it has never seen before. As Ponyville's resident princess, it's up to Twilight to lead the town to safety, and she knows that her friends will be by her side.
She does not know, however, how much she'll need them . . . or how close she'll get to losing them.
