//------------------------------// // Prologue // Story: Life of Slice // by Twiface //------------------------------// Once upon a time, in the magical land of Bakequestria, there were two regal sisters who ruled together and provided the food supply for all the land. To do this, Yeastrise, the eldest, used her baking powders to raise the yeast at dawn; and Pancake, the younger, brought out the batter and poured it in the pan. Thus, the two sisters satisfied the hunger of their subjects, all the different types of ponies. But as time went on, the younger sister became resentful. The ponies relished and enjoyed the bread her elder sister brought forth all day, but they would not serve the younger’s pancakes after 11 AM. One fateful morning, the younger sister refused to clean up the kitchen to make way for lunch. The elder sister tried to reason with her, but the bitterness in the young one’s heart had transformed her into a wicked mare of breakfast: Bacon Pancake. She vowed that she would shroud the land in eternal breakfast. Reluctantly, the elder sister harnessed the most powerful magic known to ponydom: the Elements of Bakery. Using the magic of the Elements of Bakery, she defeated her younger sister, and banished her permanently to the fridge. The elder sister took on responsibility for both breakfast and lunch, and harmony has been maintained in Bakequestria for generations ever sense. “Hmmm...” said a light fuchsiaish gray alicorn with pale, light grayish magenta eyes and a mane consisting of stripes of light cerulean, light turquoise, very light cobalt blue, and pale heliotrope, with a slice of cake for a cutie mark. “Elements of Bakery. I know I’ve heard of those before… but where?”
