De'mah 'Tokam. Aristocrat. Prodigy. Wanderer. Bound by the blood-honor of the Sangheili and eager to prove the strength of his name he travels the glory of the cosmos in search of worlds graced by the Forerunners.

Celestia. Princess. Wise. Kind. Bound by the tenets of Harmony and peace between all races, rules with her sister in benevolence over the world of Equestria as they rebuild in the wake of Discord's chaos.

Two beings, so very unlike each other, whose fates became entwined through their actions, and all that came with them. Neither had ever suspected what their futures might've held for them, but it is not long after they meet that the two face things that will test the nature of their characters.

For De'mah, it is an adventure he believes will be his rite of passage. A journey of coming of age. A chance to prove his strength and honor. For Celestia, it is a struggle to be the guiding light of her species as they stare down the face of extinction.

And though they may survive in being, they may not survive in spirit.
