The reason why Princess Luna turned into Nightmare Moon has been alluded to, theorized, and dramatized. But all of the reasons why have been grandiose and very often external in nature. But all that is really needed to turn someone from a being of good to a being of darkness is but a simple whisper and time. A whisper given by a force of hatred and fear.

Chapters (4)
So here is chapter one. If someone finds an interest in it I may continue the other chapters with more focus and drive but if not then I will probably just finish them as I finish them. Please give positive and constructive criticism. Celestia knows I am not a perfect writer.

Thanks I will fix that. You are correct. Alluded is more of a term of reference not avoidance. Thanks for the fave and the criticism!
AAAAAAWWWWEEESOOOOOME!
2824286 Thanks. Trying to get Chapter 3 going but I seem to be having an issue with the pacing in it. Either its rushed or WAY too damn slow. Hopefully I should have it out by the end of this weekend.

I rpefer slow.
2824403 The big thing at the moment is I don't want to get into things that don't need a lot of time. For example we all knew Discord was defeated I could have regaled the entire thing but decided that would be too much for what I want this story to accomplish. I also don't want the whole trip and then fight with Sombra as it will bog down the goal of the story but this fight is a bit more important to the main story. I have to at least toss in the last part of the fight but I don't know if I should do that or just kind of hint at it in this mysterious way. One tends to make the story rushed the other makes the story feel like its moving at a snails pace. I knew there were going to be some rather large time jumps in the story but I am having trouble with where I should put them.

Hint!
I feel like this chapter could have been a little longer, but it was good.
4908896 Thanks. It was going to continue with a bit about the transformation but after the show aired that exact moment and then that awesome Fan made animation came out I lost all desire to continue. But I wanted to finish the story at least.
