Chapter One: Traditions

Where is that music coming from you ask? Well that's Octavia, the violinist on the roof! Why do we have a violinist on the roof you ask? Well, that's one of our many traditions in ponyville. Here our traditions are sacred. We always wear hats or scarves to cover our manes. Papa makes the decisions in the house. Mama cleans. The sons wait for a bride. The daughter wait for the matchmaker to make them a match. I for one, have five daughters. My oldest, Twilight Sparkle. Then Rainbow Dash. Next is my dear Fluttershy. Then there's Applejack, then the youngest, Pinkie Pie. My name is Shining Armor and I live with my beautiful daughters and my beautiful wife Cadence in our beautiful town, Ponyville! We each have our duties and jobs, mine is delivering milk. Now sit back and relax as you hear our tale of changes.
