This story is a sequel to Incandescent


A mare reflects on her love for her sister.


This story is a spiritual sequel to Incandescent.
It is also a gift for Zontan for being an excellent writer, a great mate, and for not muting me as much as he probably should.
Thank you to the wonderful wishcometrue and the magnificent themoontonite for prereading and help.

Truly stunning stuff, Seer. I love your voicing and characterization of Luna here, and the reveal that the sister she is talking to is the moon, and not Celestia, is handled so deftly.

Don't really have anything to say except that this was good!

This was fantastic, and definitely better than Incandescent, and that is not because it was written for me and features Best Princess.

This is not at all what I was expecting when I gave you the prompt all those years ago in the Before Times, but I super enjoyed it anyway. How Luna speaks to the moon is fantastic, and I really like the distinction made between her and Celestia. Luna is more interesting and a more realized character precisely because she has to work for her status, work for her respect, work for her redemption. And building a fic around that is great.

Thanks so much for writing this. =)

You have a very abstract descriptive style I really, really admire. This and Incandescent really hooked me in, and I can’t believe I’ve only just got around to them.

A really beautiful piece that complements the first. Nice job, Seer.

Oh jeez, Seer. This one is just brimming with subtle sadness. There is still an element of unworthiness that Luna projects onto herself. And while both stories are about a kind of love, Luna's love for her art is one that she feels controls her instead of the other way around. Does she see the moon as a sister because of 'sister' being an archetype that she finds mirrored in her relationship with her actual sister? Celestia has Rarity, but Luna only has the moon.
