Transition is never easy. And the past can be difficult to handle alone, especially as the mind wanders before sleep. But for the first time in a millennium, Luna is no longer alone.

Nightmare moon was defeated a few weeks ago. Luna has finally gotten back into her nightly routine. Everything seems fine. That is, until one night when Celestia is unable to fall asleep due to some pent-up emotions. This is the story of how Luna helps Celestia find closure.

As a Royal Princess, it is Luna's responsibility to watch over the subjects in her kingdom. One of the ways she helps the common pony is to inhabit their nightmares, helping them to overcome their fears and anxieties in order to live stronger the next day. However, one night Luna steps into the dreams of a young filly and finds out that the pony is dying. With nopony else able to help the child, the Royal Princess realizes that she has no other choice but to help. Can Luna save the filly walking the line between life and death?

This story will tell about princess Luna's state, after she was saved by the Elements of Harmony, and how she would spend her time with her big sister in the castle durning the day and night with a bit of twist and turns here and there.

Note: I made this story duo to never being able to see in the tv series the relationship of the two princess sisters so i wanted to write this that has some elements of the series and some of my own.

Snowdrop has led a happy life as a mother, teacher and snow maker for Equestria. But now at the ripe old age of ninety seven, a retired Snowdrop takes a trip to Canterlot at the invitation of a school teacher who wishes for the old blind mare to talk about her life being blind and creating the beautiful stars of winter.

Nearing the end of her days, Snowdrop takes the time to be with her family and friends, visiting Princess Celestia, returning to her old school and lamenting the loss of her best friend. Accompanied by her granddaughter, Snowdrop makes the best of what she can with the little time she has left.

1,000 years of banishment can really force a pony to rethink her life's choices. Now that she has returned, Princess Luna is starting to realize everything that she has missed since her departure, including the death of her beloved friend Snowdrop. As Luna and Celestia release Snowdrop's very first, and last, snowflake, Luna yearns to say goodbye to her beloved friend.

But doing so may prove to be more dangerous than Luna imagined.

Celestia finally sits down and has a little chat with Luna.

MASSIVE shout out to Silent Tortoise who proofread the story and offered so many helpful suggestions. See those comments down below? That's him helping me. See how methodical he is? Doesn't that just make you jealous? I recommend him, he is a brilliant person!

It's the night of the third day following Luna's return. Celestia invites Luna to her room and finally has a chance to tell Luna something she's shared with no other pony, not even her faithful student, Twilight. She explains to her sister how she spent those days during the thousand years, by revealing her most heartbreaking memories and showing Luna a room that no other pony has ever seen before.

Note:
This story is something I've had in the works for over two years now. The cover image and the song "Lullaby for a Princess" had strongly inspired me, along with a number of other images involving Celestia and Luna's sorrow. While I had the concept and a rough outline, I was never quite sure how I wanted to do the delivery. I wanted to do something that would tug at the reader's heartstrings, but until a few weeks ago, I didn't have the inspiration or the confidence to follow through. But now, whether this story succeeds or fails, I'm glad I found the inspiration to write this. I'm happy with how it turned out and hope you will enjoy it as well.

I know there are a number of other similar stories out there, but this is just my thoughts on how Luna and Celestia's reconciliation took place beyond what we saw in the series pilot.

If anyone knows the artist that did the cover image, please let me know so I can post a link and give them credit for such an inspirational work or art!
