History
As head of the Equestria Games, Ms. Harshwhinny was invited to the Crystal Empire to evaluate it as a host for the next occurrence of that competition. The Mane Six were tasked by with greeting her at the Crystal Empire train station and showing her around the Empire. Unfortunately, they mistook Ms. Peachbottom for the games inspector, and thus proceeded to give her the tour they had planned for Harshwhinny. Left ungreeted and forced to make her own way, she eventually came to the Crystal Empire spa, where she inadvertently ran into the Mane Six, Cadance, and Ms. Peachbottom. Though greatly annoyed at the case of mistaken identity, she was greatly pleased by Ms. Peachbottom's report of the attention she had been given in Harshwhinny's stead, and thus announced that the Crystal Empire would host the next games.

However, she later got a taste of her own medicine after responding with awe to the performance of the Cutie Mark Crusaders. During the games, Ms. Harshwhinny gave instructions regarding his role in lighting the torch during the opening ceremonies. She grew impatient when he hesitated, but was surprised when the torch lit due to the unseen intervention of.
