If I recall ee was added for service to the Covenant which once the schism happened was dropped. So Thel Vademee became Thel Vadam once more.

Mmm, you might be right. Most I could find was that it was for military service, but it IS true most Sangheili dropped their suffixes post-schism, but that could be because they were no longer in any military. If I can find anything that says definitively that -ee was for Covenant service I'll change it,

Thank you for dropping by and leaving a comment. Hope you enjoy the story!

I mean Arbiter dropped the EE after the schism and that guy is still military and Rtas dropped it and he's a shipmaster.

Good point. I've updated chapter one's author's note. Thanks again, appreciate it!

Uhmm Ponyville doesn’t exist yet since it was founded after Luna’s banishment. So you gotta did that

I was afraid of the timeline getting screwy, since both series' lore goes back thousands of years(and since MLP is a children's show they never really took it all that seriously), so certain things were never going to line up with regards to each. I could change the town's name, but it'd functionally be the same thing.

Can I say that I like this story way better than the story this is a prequel to? Like what happened to Twilight wasn't very good writing and the original story well wasn't that well written in my opinion. This story though is much better written and seems better planned.

Thank you, I'm glad that you've been enjoying the story! I'd say that's a fair assessment, too. Looking back on Sins Never Die there's a lot of poor pacing and chapters that should've been longer, and some key events that didn't play out very well. If I were to write that story today, it'd be quite different.

Yeah this story seems like you planned it out. Yeah, Sins Never died should have ended with Equestria being glassed since the Covenant always won the space battles which were the battles that truly mattered.

I might actually agree with that. It would've fit the theme of Celestia's past sins having doomed her planet, even a thousand years after she committed them(and because it's a monumental stretch that even a specially-modified destroyer could've stood up to a Covenant battlecruiser).

Even better would have been for Celestia, Luna and the Mane 6 b able to escape with the UNSC only to see their world be glassed making Celestia realize that she should have killed her opponent in a fair battle.

Honestly that part wouldn't have made much of a difference either way. The dragons still would've split away from the Equestians in SND because of the perceived unfairness of their loss to the humans, and because the Sangheili had returned. Celestia only revealed the truth about De'mah to Twilight and Luna anyway. Celestia would've had to actually have faced her opponent in fair combat with dragons to bear witness to prevent them from continuing to worship De'mah, which would've prevented them from splitting away to join the Covenant in SND. They might've stayed neutral, but easily could've been persuaded to come back to the Equestrians once they realized the full threat of the Covenant.

There is a sequel, Sins Never Die! Though it was written many years before this story.

Nothing could further from the truth, Celestia knew.

Caught a typo near the beginning of the story

Fixed. Thanks for letting me know!

Were it so easy Celestia thought.

Sometime in the future, elsewhere in the Galaxy, a Sangheili warrior by the name of Thel ‘Vadamee sneezes.
