A handsome stallion and a shy mare may finally take a big step. A big step into each other's life. Perhaps this could be a hoof in the right direction for both ponies, perhaps to spend their lives with each other.
The two's hearts throb for one another ,but shyness has kept the wall between them firm. Will this night finally tear it down and allow the bud of love blossom?

Novalis has progressed far. Once a mere admirer of Princess Luna, he is now her ambassador on errands she cannot handle herself, and her personal student, studying the stars and sky when his dreaming is not interfering.

A sequel to Nocturnality, Novalis will now begin exploring the world, and his relationship with the Lunar Princess.

My name is Artemis, I was sworn in as Princess Celestia's personal guard quite some time ago. I've watched her for so many years and silently stood by her side during all the recent ups and downs of her reign. Now I'm going to tell her how I feel. I know it would never work, we're just too different. But sometimes, there are things in a stallion's life he just has to do, and things he has to get off his chest.

What happens tonight will be anypony's guess, but one thing is for certain... it will be a night to remember.
