* TheChessmaster: We see the origin of how Cozy got her cutie mark. She had to manipulate some other students for them to be her friends by hiding a Daring Doo book that one of them left out and giving it back to said student when they get into a fight with another thinking that they stole it.

Almost half a year after beginning of their retirement Celestia and Luna receive mail from Princess Twilight Sparkle. She informs them that she sees herself not worthy of the throne and restore the sisters' status of ruling monarchs of Equestria. Fearing for Twilight's wellbeing, they rush into Canterlot.

What they find in Twilight's secret laboratory shocks them to the core. She has been having nightmares about the Legion of Doom. They accuse her of being no better then they are as she never tried to help them like the other villains. Eventually, the dreams became too much and she attempted to release them, but it went wrong and she got turned to stone. And now the rest of Mane 6 follow Twilight in her quest to fix the failure which started her reign.

But can they really fix such broken individuals? Or will their statue became the symbol of their greatest failure of Friendship forever?
