Shadows of My Past
How does one become a force of darkness? How does another become orphaned without their knowledge? How do two know of the kingdom of the north? And why is this city of one an called an empire?
In the time before Equestria and the two princesses, before Nightmare Moon, before Discord, or even before Tirek, there was already a villain of darkness. He brought terror and fear down upon the ponies of the city of the frozen north. But, where did he come from? Why is he evil? And where did our beloved pink Alicorn come from?
(This is a head cannon story about King Sombra and Cadence.)
