Description
A crackle of magic radiates through the air and the tour guide’s eyes widen in horror as the surrounding ponies are turned to stone. Before she can make sense of what has happened, she’s approached by a white unicorn with golden eyes. The tour guide’s eyes dart to the strange armor the unicorn is wearing before her attention is redirected towards the firey wings that suddenly burst forth. “I’m curious,” the unicorn starts, “do you know who I am? Or has Celestia managed to erase that too?”
“I-I don’t– I don’t know. I’m sorry. Please,” the panicked tour guide sputters.
“Shhhh. It’s alright. I know it’s not your fault, sweet child,” the unicorn says in a soothing and yet somehow mocking tone. “It’s
Celestia’s fault. Everything is Celestia’s fault and I am going to make sure that she pays for it. But one step at a time. For now, little one, I need your help.”
“M-my help?”
“Yes, darling. You’re going to fill me in on everything I’ve missed while I was in exile. I don’t want any surprises getting in my way when I make my move to conquer Equestria.”
The shuddering pony manages to still herself and muster up some courage. “N-no. No, I won’t help you.”
“Oh, sweetie,” the unicorn chuckles, “it wasn’t a request.” The aqua colored gem on the unicorn’s armor glows and the tour guide feels a powerful surge of magic take hold of her body, binding her to the spot. It starts at her hooves and shoots upward until it reaches her head. Then, the pony’s mind goes blank, any sense of free will overwritten. The unicorn smirks to herself and then leans in and whisper’s in the pony’s ear. “Remember this well, pet, I am Solar Eclipse, I will remove all of these so called princesses, and I will rule over all of Equestria.” The unicorn pulls back just enough to meet the tour guide pony’s distant gaze before adding, “now, you will tell me what I want to know.”
A hollow voice emanates from the tour guide pony, “yes.”

The tour guide pony blinks and slowly comes to the realization that the museum’s patrons are staring at her expectantly. She quickly looks around the room for… What was it? Her memory seemed foggy all of a sudden. Their was a nagging feeling at the back of her head that she was forgetting something very important, but the only thing she could recall was the words solar eclipse.
“Ms. Tour Guide,” a sweet filly pipes up, “is everything alright?”
“Y-yes, of course. Sorry about that,” she replied, brushing her thoughts aside. “Let’s move on to the next exhibit, shall we?”
“I-I don’t– I don’t know. I’m sorry. Please,” the panicked tour guide sputters.
“Shhhh. It’s alright. I know it’s not your fault, sweet child,” the unicorn says in a soothing and yet somehow mocking tone. “It’s
Celestia’s fault. Everything is Celestia’s fault and I am going to make sure that she pays for it. But one step at a time. For now, little one, I need your help.”

So, what you’ve hopefully learned if you’ve read the blurb:
Solar Eclipse does not like Celestia. They clearly have some history.
Solar Eclipse has been in exile up to this point.
Solar Eclipse wants to take over and rule Equestria. (Not exactly the most original of motives, but who doesn’t want to be a princess? Follow your dreams, Eclipse! )
