The Strings Of Life

Prologue- A Little Backstory Of Maestro

A pony by the name of Maestro has moved into Canterlot with his parents who had adopted him when he was very young, as both of them were Unicorns as well. He himself was a charming young stallion, and Earth Pony to be precise. He had gotten a few lessons to learn to play the Cello from within the recent town he lived in, but he wanted to continue his further lessons he needed in order to get better.

As for Maestro’s original parents, his father died in a house fire in order to keep him safe. His father rushed into the burning house as his mother tried to stop him. His father made it out, but the smoke inhalation got the best of him over time. He was diagnosed with lung cancer, and died somewhat painfully in his sleep. For his mother however, she decided to bring him over to their town’s orphanage, since she thought it would be the best thing for him she thought. She dropped him off there when he was just a little colt, and she never looked back. She looked back at him one last time before the orphanage doors closed, with a tear of hope and happiness, knowing a loving family would take him one day.

So the story now takes place within the great and bustling city of Canterlot, as he has to now set off to find himself a teacher. He hears whispers of somepony he thought would be an excellent teacher, but her popularity is down the drain within theis story. About the same age as he was though, her name was Octavia, and one of the finest Cello players in Canterlot, and possibly one of the best in all of Equestria. Certain things in his life will be yet sad, heartwarming, comical, and maybe at some point of something deeper than that?
