It had been ten years since the last sighting of Mare-Do-Well, ten years since all hope was lost. Ponyville had been corrupted by criminal and criminal in the ten years since hope was lost. Criminals of this day and age are not just your average criminal. They are not the average mugger after a wallet, they just enjoy senseless violence and murder, the kind a certain chaotic criminal that has also disappeared from the public for ten years as well; a yin and yang of order and chaos that kept Ponyville in balance. That might sound like a strange way to put it but it worked and since both good and evil have disappeared you would think Ponyville would remain in balance, it was for about a year. Things went from bad to worse when the Chrysalis gang started to form.

A gang not driven by anything except anarchy and violence. No real goal and their violent attacks have no pattern or purpose except to instill fear into us. And the worst part of all: it was actually working. Citizens of Ponyville would never go out at night and at times even during the day. The streets of Ponyville became a war zone, a war zone with no real winner, only plenty dead, mostly innocent ponies.

People looked to Mare-Do-Well as a sign of hope, a sign that one Pony in a mask can make a difference, that one Pony can turn the tide, that one Pony can instill fear into the heart of the enemy and hope in the heart of the innocent.

This is the story of that one Pony and his never ending battle with war on crime and that no matter how much time has passed one fact will always stay the same: hero's do not die, they only come back when the time is right. This is the story of how The Good Knight Returned to take back her home.
