"All it really took to unseat the queen was to bring in a Countess."

Rara had been taught that anypony who could outshine her could ruin her dream in an instant, so she kept to herself, never thinking once about her competitors. Not even Sapphire Shores, the mare who inspired her more than anypony else. But when she's left without the resources Svengallop was willing to give her, a single question is on her mind.

Is Sapphire really her rival? Or could they create something better together?
