Prologue

And as she ran, she fought herself, time and time again, attempting to resist to take a mere glimpse of what she had left behind. Of what she had worked on for so long, and so hard on. Yet despite her wishes to go back and make a new with all of those who she had taken so many precious memories and opportunities away from, she continued to run.

Ordinary filly that was indeed not convinced that she was like all the other fillies. This is because she was in fact not. Starlight Glimmer was not like the other fillies. Although she enjoyed many things the other fillies liked like playing tag, ice cream, and magic, Starlight Glimmer did not grow up like the other fillies, for the other fillies had loving, hopeful homes to live in, with friendly, kind parents.
