Alicorns are not born the way they are today. They are either born a pegasi or a unicorn and later earn their horn or wings, and that includes Celestia. This is her story.

After an annual meeting discussion what should be done throughout Canterlot, Twilight senses something wrong with her mentor Celestia. This day is the day Celestia became an Alicorn, and every year this day brings great sadness to her.

Celestia's road from a regular pegasi filly to where is is today is filled with laughter, love, and of course great sadness along the way.

Prologue: The Royal Meeting

"We all agree that we should fix the water tower in Ponyville, correct?" asked Celestia.

Everypony in the room said shook their head in agreement.

Tonight was the yearly meeting of the royal advisors. The ponies that attended this were Celestia, Cadence, Luna, and new this year was Twilight. They were in Celestia's castle, the one where all the windows showing all the adventure Twilight and her friends went on.

"Now on another topic. How's the Crystal Empire Cadence?"

"It's good Celestia, thank you. One problem is the lack of sporty equipment we have. As you know the Games are coming next summer, and we just built that stadium, and you know those don't come cheap. We had to raise taxes, and that made a lot of the ponies mad. Celestia, are you even listing to me?"

Celestia was looking out the window showing Discord being defeated.
