Lost in the tranquil bliss of a crystal mud bath at the Crystal Empire's signature spa, you're suddenly sprung back to reality by the hurried clatter of hoofsteps on the hard floor. Curious, you rise from your bath and peek around the corner, spotting patrons leaving in droves, ushered out by the employees. Moments later, a familiar regal figure steps into the spa.

"You didn't have to be so insistent on the others leaving, you know! I love interacting with my fellow ponies."

Said the princess as she sat down on a nearby bench, using her magic to remove her golden crown, plates, and adornments. The spa workers swiftly attended to her items, promising to return with warm towels, creams, and lotions before exiting the room. Just then, the princess noticed you peering from around the corner. With a giggle, the pink mare spoke.

"Looks like they were in so much of a hurry that they forgot to kick somepony out! Who might you be?"
