Talk:Princess Cadance/@comment-69.196.132.194-20120721142955

My 100% speculative pet theory:

Cadance is the is the product of intermarriage between the Equestrian and Crystal Kingdom royal families. (Maybe she has an Equestrian mother and a Crystal Kingdom father.) This makes her princess of both realms, and the original plan was for her to have a role in ruling Equestria (hence why she was raised there), but with the Crystal Kingdom in need of a ruler, she has to take over its government.
