Principal Celestia nodded. "It was all too effective, I'm afraid. Gradually, she managed to break as many ties between the other students as possible, using such methods. Still, she won a second crown at last year's Fall Formal. Since then, there have been other, more blatant acts of cruelty against some of the other students, but I could never pin those on her. In the end, without physical proof, there was nothing I could do, other than advise those students who had been affected to see the guidance counselors."
