Rainbow Hearthswarming Feast is a 2,2k Dark Horror Mistery. In it, Rainbow Dash learns about the decadence of aristocracy.
Princess Luna is on vacation, so Dash has been having some pretty bad dreams. In them, she has a service job. The horror! Oh, and she's serving pony flesh to the patrons. She's understandably disturbed, so she goes to Zecora for help. Perhaps hoping she can hook her up with drugs or something.
Instead, Dash thinks the best course of action is to Canterlot to prove that the rich ponies totally aren't eating ponies in their high society parties. You have one guess as to how this plays out.
There's also this little twist at the end about how Dash knew about this and actually partook in the murder of foals and their consumption so she could keep her spot in the Wonderbolts. I imagine it was meant as commentary of sorts about the things people have to do to enter the circles of the elites. If the author gets suicided soon, we'll know for sure.
Anyway, the story started somewhat promising, but it rushed through all the events. A real shame.
