Although Equestria and the Crystal Empire have remained peaceful for years, the tales of Twilight Sparkle and her friends' adventures saving the world from evil are still at the forefront of many creatures' minds. Princess Flurry Heart, by way of her parents, has knowledge of her aunt's other escapades that never reached the news. Of course, as a young filly, she wants to emulate her heroic aunt. As her supporting father, Shining has actively encouraged her by rarely interfering in her attempts at mimicking Twilight. Even if her current interest might involve ending the world if it goes poorly.
Sometimes, Cadance wished he'd be less blasé.
Late (but not quite late) entry for the Shining Armor is a Terrible Dad competition.
