Everything has a beginning and the heavens are no exception.
The Heavens were originally filled with blacksmiths, considering the heavens had to be created somehow. Many weapons, homes and other important buildings needed to be built there, so it would only make sense for the first gods and goddesses of the soon-to-be upcoming Equestria would be blacksmiths. Well, Blacksmiths and Carpenters.
Which has proven very necessary and worthy for the heavens. The blacksmiths were needed to make pots, pans, tools, hammers, nails, axes, sewing needles and many more. The Carpenters were no exception because they were needed to build and furnish buildings, not to mention installing insulation and architecting. Many of the blacksmiths and carpenters knew exactly how powerful they were and if they combined their talents together they would be unstoppable, some has good intent and some has bad intent with combining their strengths and abilities.
The head of the blacksmiths' Horseshoer, was a well-respected leader of steel and other very important metals, he along with his blacksmiths was the first to discover what would soon be called the heavens. Horseshoer's personality is very reserved, prideful and very serious, but he's also extremely loyal to his inner circle, he was also known to be friendly and cooperative but most of all very patient and a strong loving fatherly figure. Despite always having a dead serious stone look on his face, Horseshoer was still known to show other emotions especially if something caught him off-guard or he became distraught. Horseshoer also has some other hidden traits about him, such as being able to see a creature's aura and knowing many different types of fighting styles and combining them all into one.
One day in the developing heavens, Horseshoer received word that the crops that they have planted were starting to die, and if something wasn't figured out there would be no food left. But because he's an earth pony surely he wouldn't have trouble with figuring something out for the plant life and other food supply, but alas it wasn't the case. Horseshoer may be an earth pony but he is no garner or farmer, honestly he has to study plants in order to understand them considering he doesn't have that type of earthly connection. Horseshoer became saddened and angered by the constant daily plant life and food struggle, it was just one of those rare times when he felt lost and at this point even scared. He didn't want anypony and or creature to go hungry under his watch, and yet...it was happening and there was nothing he could do...at least, so he thought. While Horseshoer was in deep thought his best friend and top captain of the blacksmiths Thundersnow who happen to be a well-known pegasus in his group came into his quarters to inform him that there were some surprising visitors there, Horseshoer wasted no time and quickly headed out to see who these visitors were.
Hestia, the leader of the carpenters was very compassionate and a motherly figure, Hestia was known for being an architect, earth connection and care of kin. She was indeed an interesting carpenter unicorn because just like Horseshoer there is more to her than meets the eye, Hestia was extremely compassionate, very loyal and had an amazing sense of humor.
She did share something in common with Horseshoer, Hestia also had an aura ability that could help her since or tune into any creature that had some kind of bad feeling or even a good feeling. Hestia and her group of carpenters were drawn to what would soon be called the “heavens” later on down the line, as hestia and her group drew closer she could sense there was a grave disturbance and despair, as for somepony who always wore her heart on her sleeve she couldn't help but feel saddened and concern.
Horseshoer: “Who goes there?”
Horseshoer’s voice rained-out snapping Hestia out of her deep thought.
Hestia: “Please forgive our trespassing, it's just that we've been drawn here and winter is coming up…may we please stay here until next spring?”
Hestia: “I just wish for my inner circle here to be nice and warm, without having to worry about freezing or catching a cold.”
Hestia was not wrong, fall was quickly approaching and very soon it would be winter. Horseshoer knew the right thing to do was to let them stay for as long as they needed, after all this group met no harm so who would he be to turn them away so suddenly without any reasoning?
Horseshoer: *nods* “Yes, of course you may stay…in fact, stay as long as you may want.”
Hestia smiled warmly and thankfully at him.
Hestia: “Oh, thank you so much kind sir.” *does a curtsy* “I'm eternally grateful to your compassion and kindness.”
Horseshoer returned the bow and welcomed her and her group with open hooves, but then Thundersnow quickly reminding him that there's barely enough food as is.
Thundersnow: “Horseshoer, Sir…there's barely enough food now as is, how could we support our own group and her’s at the same time?”
Horseshoer: *remembered the issue and let it out a somewhat saddened tired sigh* “I am fully well aware captain, but we can't just turn them away without any good reasoning…it…wouldn't be right.”
Thundersnow: “I completely understand sir, I will help them get situated immediately and help with The Grand Tour.”
Horseshoer: “Thank you Thundersnow, I appreciate it.”
The two then shared a warm gentle smile before turning and heading back to base camp to get things situated with their new company.
