As proud as she was of her royal duties, the nights in Canterlot often left Luna bored and lonely - remembering her troubled past as Night Mare Moon made it no easier. Determined to clear her head, the Princess of the Night decides to take a night-time stroll - making new friends and discovering things about herself in the process.

Even if they must ravage all of Ponyville, they WILL find a girl just right for their little Pippy.

(Please Note: This story was started before any season three information was available. All episodes in season three and later are non-canon for this story, which also means there's no Crystal Empire in this one. In addition, the promotional map released close to the beginning of season three was also not available and is not compatible with this story. While the OC tag is active because there are OCs in the story, they're really just supporting characters. The focus is on Twilight.)
