Backstory: Hearthfire was raised in Canterlot by her artisan parents, Vesta and Vitreus. She learned the trade of metalsmithing from her mother, to whom she was apprenticed for four years, and who she works alongside in their shop, "The Silver Anvil." At nineteen she was commissioned to forge a set of shoes for the recently recently returned princess Luna. The royal farrier had just retired, yet to be replaced, and her work was highly praised by locals. When she was delivered the shoes, princess Luna was so impressed by the detail of such seemingly simple work that she immediately demanded to know who had made them. That day Hearthfire became the royal farrier, and since then she has crafted all of the metalwork worn by the princesses and other various royalty.<br />
