The ponies of Equestria prepare for their first Friendship Festival, overseen by Princess Twilight Sparkle in Canterlot. The festivities are interrupted by the army of an evil conqueror called the Storm King, led by his second-in-command, a unicorn named Tempest Shadow, who is under orders to capture Equestria's princesses for him to harness their magic in exchange for restoring her broken horn. Twilight escapes being petrified by Tempest's magical orbs after Princess Celestia gives Princess Luna incomplete instructions to seek help from "the queen of the hippo" beyond Equestria. Joined by her five pony friends – Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Applejack, and Fluttershy – and her assistant dragon Spike, Twilight sets out to find the "hippos".
