He had watched from afar, hoping, and dreaming, but never expecting them to come true. When they did finally meet, his life turned for the better...and for the worse.

Their relationship budded, collapsed, and then blossomed. The world was at peace until Nightmare Moon's banishment. It was only then that his anger and greed consumed him, resulting in his demise.

This is a rough draft. My objective is to use this story to add to Equestria's possible history, and follow the show's canon.

Please leave comments, especially about loopholes, lame scenes, logic flaws, and canon flaws.
*I must note that I am only using the show as canon.
