It seemed as if Shining Meadow and Twinkle would have been two of the happiest ponies in Equestria. They had a profitable farm, friends that cared for them, a beautiful field in their own backyard. If only it was that easy for them. Twinkle, Shining Meadow's younger sister, had been dealing with awful depression from losing her parents just a year ago. And it was a pain for Shining Meadow to take care of the entire farm AND try to take care of her younger sibling all by herself.
