A story set in the far northern city of Lunangrad, once home to tribes of tough miners and strange scholars and tough warriors, all of whom loved and adored Luna even during the rebellion, who formed the core homeland of the New Lunar Republic. Spared most of the direct bombing, Lunangrad devolved in different ways: the irradiated snow forced ponies into the mostly intact transit systems, those civilians and officials that were left, while Zebras holding fast in Downtown built their own fort. The army Ponies either died in the snow, deserted to become raiders, slavers, or ghouls, or became ghouls of The Army, a sad and noble band of military ghouls committed to safeguarding the good ponies of Lunangrad forever, literally.
