As a filly Celestia was not destined for great things. She was a slow learner and mischevious. Her younger sister Luna however, she was destined to rule and one day become a god. The traditional offering of one Allicorn foal to the Star of Stars was about to happen. When Celestia is put in Luna's place by mistake the star takes Celestia on a journey to godhood. Now hundreds of years have passed. The Alicorns are gone and there are no suitable offerings to give to the star. Celestia must choose from her subjects which pony is to be given to the star and take the place of their benevolent ruler.
