Part 1: Sunburst shares his discovery of Star Swirl the Bearded's journal with Twilight and her friends, which reveals how the sorcerer and Equestria's other legendary heroes, known as the Pillars of Old Equestria, sacrificed themselves to defeat the Pony of Shadows a thousand years ago. While researching the six heroes' disappearance, Twilight and the group deduce that the Pillars are still alive in limbo, where they have imprisoned themselves alongside the Pony of Shadows for the past millennium. Against Starlight's reservations, Twilight is convinced that freeing Star Swirl would benefit Equestria with his knowledge. To do this, each of Twilight's friends obtains one of the Pillars' artifacts scattered across the land and gathers them to the site of the sealing ritual. Although they succeed in releasing the Pillars, doing so inadvertently brings the Pony of Shadows back as well.

Part 2: With his newfound freedom, the Pony of Shadows retreats to the darkest corners of Equestria to recover his lost strength. Scolded by Star Swirl for breaking his spell, Twilight resolves to redeem herself by helping him and the Pillars return the Pony of Shadows to limbo, this time by sacrificing the Elements of Harmony in their place. The map directs them to the monster's location in the Hollow Shades, but Starlight believes this is a friendship problem and learns from the Pillars that the Pony of Shadows was once their friend named Stygian, whom they cast out for attempting to steal their artifacts. When the group arrives at the Hollow Shades, they use the Elements on the Pony of Shadows, but Twilight and Starlight see Stygian and reach out to him, learning that his supposed betrayal was actually an attempt to help the Pillars protect Equestria. The Pillars realize their mistake and help Twilight and her friends use the Elements to separate Stygian from the shadow entity, which is reimprisoned. Star Swirl apologises for all the trouble he caused with his arrogance. With their friendship restored, Stygian and the Pillars remain in the present era to explore Equestria.
