"Long ago and far to the south of Equestria, Somnambula’s village was menaced by an evil sphinx who demanded the ponies give her most of the crops they toiled over. When the pharaoh’s son Prince Hisan challenged the sphinx, he was captured. Somnambula took matters into her own hooves. She accepted the sphinx’s final challenge to walk across a narrow bridge blindfolded, with the promise the monster would leave the village forever if Somnambula reached the other side of the bridge. Somnambula’s bravery and faith led her to safety, saving both Hisan and the village.
Somnambula’s virtue is Hope."

Somnambula is a very popular Pillar apparently. I don't really know why that is. Then again, she is beautiful in her Egyptian style. Whatever the reason, I guess she's my favorite; either my second or third. Not to mention the hope she would bring to others reminds us of Pinkie Pie and the levity she brings even in the darkest of times. On thing is for certain, it's a good thing Somnambula was around. She managed to deliver her fellow Egyptian ponies to the promised life before defeating the evil sphinx.

I'll admit finding the correct background was no easy feat. Fortunately, it did not end with overwhelming stress as it did with Rockhoof and Flash Magnus. I thought that this background of the pyramids would fit. I would've gone with a glowpaz background (using a background of green gems), but I thought it would make us forget of Somnambula's Egyptian heritage.

One more Pillar to go.
