A standalone prequel to Splintershard. You don't need to read Splintershard to understand this story, nor do you need to read this to understand Splintershard.
Day by day, the rift in Equestria grows. The factions align, but nobody knows--
Will the nation still stand?
Or will it fade away, leaving only dust and sand?
This story starts off pretty lighthearted, but will grow progressively darker as time passes. Additional tags will be added as the story progresses.
