Phoebe was a pegasus who lost her wings in a magical mishap. Her life spiraled out of control, landing her in a conservative earth pony community as one of three wives to a polygamous stallion. Her only foal, Conway, was the only real hope she had left. She made it her goal to make sure he was happy, and he unintentionally did the same for her in return.

One of her favorite secrets was a little hill outside of town. There, one could catch glimpses of the Wonderbolts practicing in the mountains during cloudy days.

This is one of the young colt's earliest memories, and would be a profound inspiration.
