And as a particular time of year arrives yet again, the long-suffering yellow pegasus realises that she, like all those around her, must finally begin asking the right questions and discover the true reason that every two years she must meet with a strange, otherworldly being, the true reason her life hurts more than anypony else’s, the true reason the Abyss calls to her.
