Titan Shield is your run of the mill Wasteland unicorn mercenary, specializing in protection services. Hell, that's his special talent as described by his Cutie Mark. His other skills involve him getting into situations much to demanding for his skills, which often causes him to lose money and clients. This job however, has the promise of fixing everything; perhaps change his luck even. With the promise of over 2000 easy caps for a trip from the Crystal Empire Ruins all the way down into Las Pegasus, this could potentially clear up his remaining debts and even put him in the green. Unfortunately as per his current record of employment, Titan learns that his new charge is much more important than first let on. With the employer and debt collectors looking down his back, can Titan recover under pressure or will working alone finally catch up to him and prove to be his downfall? Who can he turn to for help? Can he turn to anypony for help or will he be doomed to walk the Lonesome Road forever?
