"Fiara Spark, you are never to find out what's in this locked book. Ever! If you even try to find out why we're your adopted parents, or who your real parents are, there will be dire consequences. Am I making myself clear?"
"Yes, ma'am."
Those were one of the last words before Fiara lost her freedom forever when she was very young… She had a reputation, and it was her duty to maintain it. She didn't know very well of her parents, but her cousin, Princess Cadence, adopted her and decided to train her to become a proper ruler, since Cadence and Shining Armor's new daughter was still too young, she'd need a young and lovable role model until she became a princess as well. Fiara Spark would become a ruler of an empire, possibly choose a suitor, and maybe even have fittings for gowns and a crown. She'd be a princess, the dream of little foals all over Equestria. The only problem was… She didn't want to.
