Prey can hardly catch a break. He’s barely eaten, drank, or slept in the past 48 hours. He is covered in splinters, grime, and dried blood. He only narrowly escaped the storm, the traitors, and the sham trial. Crimson was injured, Gloom was gone, and Strange Happenstance had a smug smile on his face. And now, worst of all, Prey finds himself in the clutches of his most feared enemy. The Sun Wolf.

(To be clear I accept the cannon ending. This is just a one-shot alternate timeline where Prey is a bit luckier.)

i was not ready for an au where strange happenstance develops cancer. nothing could have prepared me.
great job on this!! i hope to possibly see more from you in the future :)
A nice bit of wish fulfillment. Of course this is utterly impossible because Prey... Well Prey wasn't born lucky, nor was he even lucky enough to be born. No, it was bad luck that Prey was made at all.
A nice entertaining thought of "what if".
Though I like how the original ends, this version, that Celestia simply... didn't know, if done well and expanded upon, could be simultaneously a bone thrown by the universe for Prey and a swift kick to the teeth.
And hey, even if the story was lackluster, Lamb Words are Lamb Words. Though I'm happy to say it was a nice and light "before bed" read.
i like the concept but feels weird to flip prey motivations, at the start he mentions "He had tried to be a better person. Tried to be loyal. Tried to be a good friend" and talks about mssing being with crimson but this is set before his death so idk in the og he distrustful, bitter, and is always planning never enjoying or think about enjoying anything and even up till the end it was mostly true only in death did he get of those traits.
This. I too wish for Prey to continue on and become a better boy.
Although, I fail to imagine somepony staying in the position of power for as long as Celestia has, and not becoming aware of the basics.
Like, your underlings may become corrupt and hide things from you. But that’s me nitpicking. Great work.
Do you think this could be developed into a fork of PaaL? I mean, you can write, come on.
That was pretty funny, I really love "shock jokes".

Continuing this story would be a challenge. My New Year's resolution is to write more and this was really a first step for me. My next PaaL project will probably be an another small or medium sized what if story. Hopefully ambition will come with practice.
I wish I lived in an alternate universe where this was canon 😭 Great job on the story! ❤
Also, Prey getting adopted by Crimson is now part of my headcanon. Thank you for the idea, I have no idea how didn't I think of it before.

Prey needs more family. In my headcanon he comes to see Lemon as his daughter.
FINALLY! Amazed no one mistook that as his name in the original.

Yeah, me too. Have there been any notable attempts at describing pony religions on this website?
