Rhyolite was so delighted and happy about everyone finally appreciating him, his work, and his dreamcatchers that he decided he and Cadence could move back to his hometown in the cold north predominantly run by Frostbitten. It was her late teenage years. He thought maybe he could introduce her to the culture that neglected him, without being scorned this time. And he wasn't scorned, not with Cadence by his side. They loved and adored her, but they adored him even more. The whole time, he had no idea that it was his daughter's *magical influence making them love her.
One week, Cadence fell extremely ill. She wasn't used to the cold, and her winter coat that was supposed to grow naturally like most Frostbitten was simply not thick enough to withstand these temperatures. During this time... his family began to scorn him and their temporary love was replaced by disgust. They even kicked him out of their home and into the streets, his village shunning him just like before. He was alarmed at the change, and didn't exactly make the connection. His father, however, would make the connection to call the police when he realized that Rhyolite had been a wanted stallion for years. The cops had previously come to investigate his hometown so many years ago, asking about his whereabouts, but Rhyolite hadn't been to visit ever since he ran away... But now that he was back, he could finally lock up his son for good.
She found out what her father did, and saw him get arrested. She tried to get the officers to let him go, but once they told her his crimes of kidnapping her, running away, leaving a horrid suicide note for her mother who he had raised her to hate... she couldn't believe it. She didn't WANT to believe it! All the hard work he'd been through, all the people she made like him...he was really just a monster the whole time? She wanted to go back to her mother, but...the shame and embarrassment of having supported Rhyolite this whole time was too much to bear. She screamed at him, telling him how nobody ever liked him; that she was just making them all love him so that he could finally catch a break in life.
"Everyone was always so cruel to you, but....you deserved it. You deserve everything bad that happens to you. The only person who loved you was me, but now...I HATE YOU!"
With that declaration, she ran away into the snowy northern realm that she didn't know, far away from anyone who could catch her and farther away from anyone willing to chase her. She didn't care if she died anymore. Her life thus far had been wasted on garbage. The life she deserved was stolen from her. She didn't care what happened... She found a cave where she passed out and hoped she would never wake again.
Unfortunately, she did wake again, but in the care of a different Frostbitten tribe: The Frios. They were nomads that searched for gems and then gave said gems to the tribe where Rhyolite came from so that they sort them and prepare them for delivery. In turn, Rhyolite's tribe provided any food or equipment they might need, and shared the profits of whatever the unicorns bought the uncut gems for. Cadence was lucky enough to run into the prince of the Frios, the wonderful Prince Sombra...It was practically love at first sight, for him anyway. He happily invited her into their family and traditions despite her odd pink appearance in the vast cold desert...He wanted nothing more than to help her. She was mostly unresponsive, but began to warm up to them and even helped them with their gem searching journeys. She revealed her abilities to create gems from her horn alone, and they couldn't help but stare in awe. It was basically free money. Who knows, maybe they would finally be able to establish a formal base of operations so that the young and old didn't have to tread along with them on their adventures into caves. They could also establish a proper hospital, as a serious injury basically meant death out here in the snowy sea of of nothingness.

(In the first picture is Rhyolite's father and stepmom, forgot to mention!)
*Cadence would do a daily all encompassing spell on her father so that whoever interacts with him is enamored. This wears off in a few hours, but they don't seem to notice. Or if they go back to meet him, the spell activates again.
