Update

I wanted to send out a message to those of you who enjoyed Before the Dawn. First of all, I've received questions about whether people can make fan art for the story. I would be happy for you to make art, and I intend to attach it at the end of the story so that other people can see it and enjoy your creativity. All I ask is that you give me credit for writing the story.

Secondly, for those of you asking, I do intend to make a sequel to Before the Dawn called Shadow of the Moon. I've been working on an outline, and I have the first chapter written, but I may not post it for a while. This second book is going to take a lot more work than the first, so I may not post it for quite some time, but rest assured that I am working on ideas for it. I didn't want to leave you all hanging.

So, without further ado, here's the first fanart I received:

Sorry for taking so long on it. There was just a lot that I had to consider before deciding if I wanted to write it. I have another short story I need to throw up before the next book can happen, but that shouldn't take too long to write.

I'm glad that I managed to make that come across successfully. I was really aiming for that. :twilightsmile:

I apologize for the late reply. Thank you so very much for your kind words. I'm glad that you found the story so enticing, though I am sorry that it kept you up so late :raritywink: The story "In Your Dreams: Luna's Farewell" is also sad, but it does give them a better ending than "Before the Dawn." They actually have the chance to say goodbye. Thanks again for reading!!

"In Your Dreams: Luna's Farewell" is actually set during the time Twilight helps defeat Sombra. It's the last chance Luna and Sombra have to say goodbye to each other. There is another sequel after this book called "Shadow of the Moon," but that one is still in the works.
