Ratchet, an inventive unicorn, wakes up in the post-war wasteland of Equestria. Her recent experiment was a success, but her plans for it have been ruined.
She wanted to save Ponykind, its future. In an attempt to do so, she developed Project Icicle, a prototype cryogenic pod that she hoped could allow living ponies to pass through time without aging and be awoken when they were needed.
Now, Ratchet has but one goal: Do what she can to rebuild Equestria. Decades have passed since she was last awake, and times have changed. Can she rise above what the wasteland throws at her, can she help the ponies of the wasteland, or will she fail and fall into the pool of hopelessness so many others now find themselves in?
