Actually, this was one of the thoughts I had while working on this... Like, he instigated a type of racism between the three equine species, creating a rift between all of them.
DISCORD.

Wonder if he was responsible for the genocide of the seaponies (why else do you think they're never mentioned?)

Well if he was the reason the hippocampus never come up, it would explain just how horrid his 'reign' was.

Wow, this part is making me not like him. I can understand the feeling spiteful and vengeful after being rejected by Celesta, but I personally abhor blatant sadism and find it hard to empathize with highly sadistic characters.

Still great art though.

It was never my intention to imply that the reason for his evil is romantic rejection, but I know some may see it that way, and that's fine.
Rather, I am attempting to emphasize that he was always evil, that he was always corrupt. Spite and vengeance are poor motives for a great villain... A great villain needs depth and complexity because a great villain is both hated and adored.

Basically, in my "headcanon"... He is capable of great evil, but also of falling in love.

I suppose that makes sense. But sadism is just so repulsive. I'm fine with villains committing evil acts as long as it's for a goal, which can include to spite/hurt someone, rather than just for shits and giggles.

Hmmm...
Of course I can't see the whole picture you have had in mind, but yet I do see the points where connections was cut and how original concept changed its course. First part didn't appeal to me, but part II and III quite close to my own headcanon.
