''All things have a memory, and the planet is no different. The Gaia Memory contains knowledge of everything that has ever existed in the land of Equestria. If knowledge is power, then the power of the Gaia Memory is a great and terrible indeed.''

Cloudsdale is experiencing a crime wave like no other. Criminals armed with fragments of the planet's memory become rampaging monsters. A mysterious syndicate's corrupting influence threatens to consume the floating city. The city cries out. And a two-in-one detective must arise to dry its tears.

This is the story a young pegasus named Akiko has found herself in. Caught up in a conflict between her father's apprentice and superpowered criminals named Dopants, Akiko must find her place in this web.
