Artemis immediately shot back in surprise. Luna had become very confused. Had he been lying about loving her?
"Is this possible? You love me?" Artemis asked, in total shock.
"I have tried to ignore that feeling. But it was impossible. And I was mad when you told me you loved because... because I... I wished I would go home. And my admiration for you was the only thing that set me back." answered Luna guiltily.
"So you love me?"
"Enough to move here."
"You are going to move here?"
"If it does not work out with my sister. But we shall have to talk to the Clave about the matters with my sister. Though I wish to do something with you tonight for I constantly feel lonely in this dimension."
"How about the soul spell?"
"The soul spell? But isn't it dangerous?"
"If you love me as much as I love you then we will be fine."
"Fine." answered Luna as they both took off, flying in unison towards the Night Wing.
**********************************************************************************************************
The Night Wing was at its finest. This darker wing of the castle belonged in the orders by the night alicorns, therefore Lunar guards guarded every room in this wing. As the two alicorns strutted the halls towards the main balcony, the Lunar guards bowed as a sign of respect. Reaching the main balcony, the two alicorns stepped outside in the cold air, igniting their horns, touching as the nature around them, once undisturbed, started moving vigorously. As the spell took its course, stones and golden sparkles surrounded the alicorns as their manes whipped around them, their eyes closed. Minutes later the spell had finished leaving the alicorns the feeling that they carried another soul just as their souls were knit together. Smiling, both alicorns went into Luna's room taking off their peytrals, crown and helmet, they lay on the bed, their eyes closed as they dreamed  of starlight.
