Princess Celestia hosted Equestria's 1000th Royal Gala, welcoming all kinds of species, Griffons, Dragons, all kinds. During this she met many interesting people, ponies, and other species, but lacked a date, a stallion to be with, and was looked down upon by the royals. A princess without a date? This was unusual.

... until she met him. One of few humans in existence, she fell in love with him quickly and asked him to stay in Equestria, rather than returning home beyond the Great Unknown. He didn't need her. He didn't need anyone, for that matter. It was only when she was ready to give her life to him did he realize that he wanted her.

He would come to need her, just as she needed him... and on the night of their year anniversary of being together, he was wrongly taken, his love and memories destroyed and was sent back to the human world without any hardships, so as he would have no want to stay in Equestria, even if he did return, somehow.

But how long can he keep himself apart from his memories of her? And why does her sister act the way she does?
