Ponyville Ranch was known through Kodo as one of the largest and most beautiful on the island. It was home to the largest herd of Rapidash and Ponyta on the island, and was famous for its exquisite breeding program. From prowess in battle to the elegant designer coloration that deviated from the breed's standard colors.
The stretches of archers covered sweeping hills and plains with lush wind swept grass where the herd spent their day playing and grazing. At the far north of the property was the barn, a bright red structure that met guests and tours as they approached.
A large portion of the ranch was fenced off, mostly to indicate to the Rapidsh and Ponyta where the property boarders were, not that the fence could stop any of them from leaving if they really wanted too, not that many wished to with as wonderful a home as they had here.
Among the individuals of the herd, were the Rance's prized mares, a couple of sisters in fact. The youngest was a Ponyta colored like the early night sky, and the younger, a Rapidash with the colors of a bright day.
Luna, and Celestia.
Celestia was a wide, patient and compassionate Rapidash, and through this had gained the love and respect from the other horses in the herd. She was always willing to help when there was a problem, or when someone just needed to be heard. She gave good advice, and was always a kind and loving Rapidash. The others saw her as something of a leader to the herd because of this, and they loved her as deeply as she cared for all of them.
It was in the middle of the day, and a tour of school children had just finished filing into the bus that would take them back to school. While they were here, the herd had been busy with the excited children, giving the young humans affection and accepting treats that the ranch owner had laid out for the children to give.
Celestia, one that was always very gentle with the younger visitors was brought out so that the children could meet her, and learn a few things about Rapidash, and how to care for one.
It had been nice seeing the little ones, but after such a long day, Celestia was grateful to be able to relax in the fields and spend her late afternoon grazing with her sister.

While Celestia had been specifically brought out to meet the children, Luna had obviously come too, although she wasn't as popular with the children. Oh, of course a very few of them preferred her, but that was probably mostly because she wasn't anywhere near as big as her elder sister just yet, as she was still a slender Ponyta. It was the same with the other herd members too, she couldn't help but notice. While they did like her - or at least, she assumed they did - they loved Celestia more and always went to her with their troubles, their concerns, their gifts, their everything. If they just wanted to talk, they went to Celestia. They only went to Luna to ask if she thought her older sister would listen to their plight or to tell her how lucky she was to have the beautiful Rapidash as a sister. While she always agreed, it wasn't nearly as heartfelt as it used to be. Something more bitter had taken root in her heart, and it was slowly blooming into a displeased resentment.
Despite the growing bitterness in her heart, deep down she still loved her sister, and had quickly acquiesced when Celestia had asked her to join for an early afternoon graze after the children had left. She plucked at the blades of grass half-heartedly for a while, eyes narrowed in thought for a while before she finally gave up with a frustrated sigh. She kicked a small hoof at the dirt before she looked at her elder sister. Suddenly all the words she'd planned to say disappeared from her thoughts, leaving her at a loss for words to stumble through. "Why do.." She frowned. "Sister, why does everyone love you most?"
