Princess Luna has mastered the ability to split herself into multiple body, allowing her to take breaks from her royal duties, all the while fullfilling said duty. One of her favorite activity as of recent years is to go enjoy a nice grilled cheese sandwich in an unassuming restaurant near the castle.

Tonight however, as Luna walks in, she finds the owner, Cheddar Wheel, in despair. It seems that the restaurant isn't as popular as it once was and he might have to close down if things don't rectify themselves in the next month. Luna would want nothing more than to help the kind pony and save his establishment, but how can she do so without breaking her disguise?

There is no other solution to garner word of mouth... her secret identity must get a job!

For almost a thousand years, the immortal Nightmare Moon has reigned over Equestria as Empress. To the average pony, Nightmare Moon is an overarching enigma whose rule is absolute and whose wrath is terrible. But to Twilight Sparkle, who as an orphan has never known her parents, the Empress is something else entirely. When the young unicorn is brought under the royal wing as an apprentice, she learns a great deal more about the supposed tyrant than she ever knew. But as Twilight is introduced to life with her new mentor, she is thrust into a world of political intrigue, conspiracies and secrets. Secrets that were never meant to be revealed. As allies and enemies plot against the very peace of the nation, will Twilight fall prey to the perils of her new position? Or will she prosper and find in Nightmare Moon the mother she never had?

============

My eternal gratitude to my editor, LordOfTheWrongs, without whom Night's Favoured Child would not be the story it is today.

Now with added TVtropes!

Featherweight has had a crush on Scootaloo for as long as he can remember, but he never did anything about it. That is, until the fateful day where he is given the challenge to kiss her before nightfall.

A thousand years after the banishment of Princess Luna to the moon along with all the Imperialists who swore allegiance to her, a complex lunar society has been built beneath the surface of Nightmare Moon's prison. In just a few decades, the despotic Empress of the Lunar Empire will have gained enough power to return to Earth and invade Equestria, transforming it into a dystopian realm of darkness. The only thing that stands in Nightmare Moon's way is the fulfillment of a prophecy, where the stars will aid in her escape so that the Elements of Harmony may exorcise her of her evil before she becomes dangerous enough to overcome her sister, Princess Celestia.

Enter Myrk, the former Captain of the Lunar Night Wraiths. Once the chief bodyguard to Nightmare Moon, he has since been branded an exile and traitor to the Empire. The Imperial Lunar Rune Guard hunt Myrk throughout the subterranean cityscapes of the moon, until he is forced to hide within the sarosian district of Tranquility deep below the outer laters.

Now, after having reunited with his half-sarosian lover, Choral, Myrk must embark upon a dangerous mission to deliver a captured piece of Princess Luna's magical essence to the lunar surface, in order to cast a beacon that will summon the stars and pave the path towards Nightmare Moon's righteous defeat.

This is an indirect prequel that takes place within the same universe as The End of Ponies.

This story is a sequel to Eljunbyro

A broken party of friends struggles to reunite.

Rainbow Dash continues to fly east.

The Shaper is a smith of unparalleled skill, her creations the most sought after in the fallen world. When a pony named Lyra comes to her with a unique commission she has to put all her skill to the test to craft a weapon of great power. For Lyra's goal is not an easy one, and it is not just any weapon that can kill a Dragon.

A story inspired by this and this image, as well as this challenge by CDRW (whose fic A Still More Glorious Dawn Awaits is quite good).
