Talk:Sunset Shimmer/@comment-11497996-20130703035048

Food for thought: Luna said the mirror into the Equestria Girl Universe opens every "30 moons" that's about two and a half years. Each season could be counted as a full year with the exception of season three (could be counted as half since it was about half of the normal episode length). What if what happened during the very first episode of MLP to air, Princess Celestia overlooked Twilight's warning about Nightmare Moon's return since she was dealing with Sunset Shimmer at the time? It could be right around that same time period since, "Celestia reveals that Sunset was a former student of hers, who began her studies not long before Twilight did. However, when she did not get the things she desired as quickly as she'd liked, she turned cruel and dishonest, eventually deciding to abandon her studies and pursue her own path."
