Fine, then. You win. Exposition time (here's what I inferred from it).
K, so there's this town in the Everfree forest full of blank flanks. And in this town, they held this huge party for the entire town. However, one of the ponies, Roneo, lost a present for his girlfriend, Starlet. This trinket, a red gem, was found by one of the town's ponies, Ruby. Unfortunately for her, that act caused her to realize that she enjoyed finding lost things, causing her cutie mark to appear. Now, this town, being isolated from the rest of pony culture, and never interacting with other ponies, thought that the cutie mark was an evil curse. This probably happened out in the open, right in the middle of the party. The crowd got angry, and began to think of her as a threat. So she fled to (her?) house in the woods, but the crowd followed her, managed to find a way into the house (perhaps by finding the key she had thrown into the well after locking the door?), and threw her into the fireplace, where she burned to death. Her ghost then haunted the town for the rest of their lives (they may have even been killed by Ruby's ghost, but I doubt it...), and when they died, every year, on the day when they killed Ruby, they re-enact that fateful day, only with a random civilian in Ruby's place. Applebloom was one so unfortunate, and, well... you know what happens next...
[HUGE STRETCH WARNING]...perhaps because Applebloom did not have a cutie mark, she didn't fit the re-enactment, so the ghosts decided not to throw her into the fire as per usual, and once Applebloom uncovered the town's dark secret, the ghosts became unsure of whether to kill Applebloom or embrace her as one of their own, causing the massive rift in reality as all hell broke loose... leave it to Applebloom to make reality itself BSoD...
