While visiting Griffinstone with Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and AK Yearling (Daring Do), Megan is told by Gilda and Gabby about the Idol of Boreas and how it was lost. Megan gathers the ponies and tells them they are going to get the idol and bring back their hope and pride. They hang-glided down using the winds in the abyss, only to discover that Ahuizotl and his cats are there too. Monsters called the Aramaspi take both the heroes and the villains by surprise, leaving Megan, Daring Do, and Fluttershy trapped in a cave with Ahuizotl and his cats. While they wait for Rainbow Dash to get help, Ahuizotl decides to tell how he became the villain he is and how his father was involved.
