Our story begins with the scene where we see Twilight, sleeping in the Ponyville Library. When she wakes up she sees the headline of a newspaper in front of her, that says:
THE QUEEN'S OFFICE TIGHTENS CURFEW
According to the Queen's office, this is a response to the threat of the Terran Republic and the Pegasus Commonwealth. New, more strict security measures are expected to be implemented in the near future all around Neo-Equestria.
Twilight: *shakes head, unable to comprehend the words* What?
She trots out only to face a very different Ponyville. Instead of dirt roads, its concrete and asphalt everywhere, there are giant holographic images on the buildings, all showing Sunset Shimmer and there are a lot of Peacekeepers marching on the streets, similarly to Royal Guards. Ponies walk ahead in lines, with an emotionless expressions, their lifeless eyes staring into nothingness. Everything's clean and shiny, but cold and rigid at the same time...
