Equestria 1000 years before the current events

Far up into the Northern Mountains of Equestria, further then anypony would even think about going, There stood Princess Celestia, princess of the sun and now sole ruler of her nation. With her stood fifty guard ponies of the Equestrian Royal Guard, what had brought them here was chained on its knees before them. It was not a pony or even anything native to Equus, it.... He was completely bald save for a full head of black thick hair and a beard and mustache around his chin and mouth for he was not of Equus but of the world of Unilarith. Not much was else was known to Celestia of this human other that in his world he was a well renowned warrior and adept magic weilder to the kingdom of Ailirwen, yet by chance some one Summer eight years ago he had come to Equus, due to a magical accident that not even he was able to explain. In time he would serve Celestia's mother Faust first as a soldier, then knight before achieving the rank of Lord Commander of the Equestrian military.

Yet fate had other plans, in the same time He fell in love with Faust's younger daughter Luna, princess of the moon and night, and they were happy together. Yet pity took hold of Faust's heart, not wanting to Luna to suffer the passing of her first love, she granted the human the same immortality she and her daughters had so that he and Luna, could always be together. Yet the days of happiness grew short, and the nights even shorter, for bad things were written by fate to happen. Now here stood Celestia alone, after having to banish her only sister to the moon, no longer was she able to seek comfort or counsel from her mother, for Faust had used so much of her magic and power to destroy the demon Yngol. To save herself she traveled to a place only she knew and one other, the human or as he had introduced himself as Ulfric Stormwolf.

"Ulfric please I'm ....I'm so sorry I had no choice what could I have done" Celestial said yet Ulfric remained silent and motionless, he did even acknowledge her.

"Please Ulfric I had no choice but to banish Luna" before she could finish Ulfric lunged at her being stopped a few inches in front of her from the chains wrapped around his arms and waist.

"YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SAY HER NAME, OR EVEN CALL HER YOUR SISTER YOU HEARTLESS WHORE" he yelled his rage boiling over, and the his other worldly magic flaring.

"P-please Ulfric I h-had no choice " Celestia choked over her forming tears, this was not what she had wanted,but she had no choice .
"NO CHOICE NO CHOICE DID I NOT TELL YOU SHE FELT UNAPPRECIATED DID I NOT TELL YOU SHE FELT UNLOVED BY EVERYONE DID I NOT TELL YOU Ulfric yelled, trying to struggle closer to Celestia his hand desperately trying to claw at her face and muzzle that was only a few inches away. Celestia jumped a bit for she was scared, scared that the enchanted chains would break, scared that Ulfric lost in his rage would try to kill her and plunge Equestria into chaos. After a few moments Ulfric ceased his attempts.

"All you ever cared about was how much attention you could get, how much praise and love you could have while shoving your own sibling aside leaving her in to stand in your shadow, if your mother were her, I would hope that she would see that you are unfit to rule even a small village" Ulfric said and he slumped to his knees letting his head hang. Celestia knew he was right, and here she was alone, her sister banished and the one person who may have become her brother in-law now being forced to be locked away in this tomb, the magic spells would keep him here, but for how long she did not know she only hoped it would be long enough for the thousand year banishment of Luna to pass and for her to find a way to free Luna from the Nightmare.

"I'm so sorry Ulfric ...I w-wish there were another way but this is w-were you must stay" She said over more tears, with a solemn nod the door to the tomb slowly closed, but not before Ulfric had one final say.

"Be warned Celestia, you should watch your back, for when I am free I'm coming for you" Ulfric said before the tomb locked with a heavy thud and all was still, Celestia no longer having to keep a stoic face buried her face in her hands and wept for a long time.

"Princess come let us leave this place" A young guard said, they began the long trek down the mountain to the carriages that waited for them, but Celestia would now always have a deep hidden fear, always afraid and waiting for when Ulfric came to fulfill his promise.
