It's a sunny day outside when Cadance goes on a stroll through the streets of the Crystal Empire. As she walks through the streets, she peers down the alleys and sees nothing but tiny heads popping out from old boxes and raggy blankets. "How sad? Why are there so many orphans here? I should set up an orphanage." Says Cadance to herself as she walks back to the castle. Once back at the palace, Cadance calls a meeting in the main hall of the castle.
"Why are we here, princess?" Asks one of the Crystal Empire council members.
"We're going to found an orphanage for all the orphans who live on the streets and alleys of our empire," replies Cadence.
"Okay," responds the council mare. "Where do you want it built, Princess?"
"In the plot up the road from my castle," responds Cadence with a smile. "And I plan on overseeing everything."
"Sure thing, Princess," responds the council mare.
A few days later, they begin building on the orphanage out of the finest crystal and other building supplies. As she promised, Cadance oversees every single part of it. "Good, good, keep it up everypony!" Says Cadance with a smile. "We need close to two hundred bunks across all the rooms. There are a lot of orphans in this empire after all!"
"Yes, Princess, we know," responds the crystal builder pony somewhat annoyed. Cadance, seeing him displeased with her, slips back off to the castle to watch the royal guard training for the day under her husband.
After several hours, Cadance returns to the worksite and checks up on the progress one last time before dinner. As she looks at the progress, she can't help but smile. She remembers when she used to be an orphan and knows she's doing them a great service. Soon, they'll be in a building and no longer on the dangerous streets of the empire. Soon, they'll be able to sleep warmly at night. Soon, they'll never go hungry again. For Cadance, that's the most exciting feeling in the world right now.
