Celestia writes a letter to her imprisoned sister, remembering their time together.

It's short, but I really don't think anything else is necessary.

Note: This was written before season 2, so some of the details might have been de-canoned in the meantime.

Because first and foremost they are sisters, no matter what some think. Nicely done my friends, and thank you for sharing.

Believe me if it was not for spellchecker and a very patient daughter-in-law you would think

that I was translating from the original dragon. That out of the way you have a glitch in the next to last

paragraph. “ A lump began to form in her sprawled out beneath her. I think you got distracted and

skipped a few words. Been there done that. Good story keep up the good work.

Very simple, very direct, and I could easily accept this as canon. A pleasent and well written little read.

HNNNNNNG!
too bad we didn't see Luna's reaction.

Woops, it must have screwed up the formatting when I imported the text. Will fix. :derpytongue2:

Message received... in my heart. :heart:
My eyes must need a gasket job,
cause they've started leaking again.

578709 For a second, I thought the rearmost hind leg of your avatar was something else... :twilightoops:

580312 Now I will never not be able to see that for a millisecond, thank you :pinkiesad2: But no, its a lion's leg and and ram's leg.

I'd say this story was beautiful, touching, tragic, and heartwarming, all at once. :twilightsmile:

580787 I know, that's why I threw that "For a Second" in there. I'm so sorry! :twilightoops:
If it's any consolation, I read your story, and am intrigued. Go on... :moustache:

My gosh, man! If I could write well, all my thoughts, feelings, and tears would be merged into this Fan-fic.
It is SO nice to know, that there are some people in this world who disagree with the whole 'transformed into the Wicked Nightmare Moon' crapes.
I can't tell you how angry I've become when people say, "Nightmare moon was a spirit that overpowered Luna and controlled her'
But you, sir, are different. I hadn't even thought of Celestia being afraid of the dark. That was genius, man!
I love how you wrote about Celestia's feelings instead of Luna's, because I believe this was a hell of a lot harder for her. In fact, I think it would actually ruin the moment if you wrote about Luna's reaction.
You sir, have been Favorited.

I liked this.

:fluttershysad: Poor Celestia. We all make mistakes, neglect to say things we should, but... she has to remember hers for eternity. Even now that Luna is back, she'll always have that thousand years of regret hanging over her and coloring their relationship. She and Luna have a very sad story, really.

Anyway, I really like the idea of Celestia having been afraid of the dark. It makes sense, given that the night is everything she isn't. And Luna instantly curing it for her was adorable. It probably would be pretty hard to fear the night once you've met the baby that represents it. :rainbowlaugh:

I also like the idea of Achaicus. We never have seen how Celestia sends letters, have we? So she potentially might have a dragon assistant. Are you planning to use him in any other fics?

Wow, this is good. You have a wonderful talent of writing characters with realistic emotions. I could feel Celestia's sadness seeping through the letter. Made me :applecry: just a little.

Oh wow, people actually looked this one up. :raritystarry:
1474763 Yup, Achaicus was basically my headcanon on how she sends letters. I haven't decided whether I'll use him in other fics or not, mainly because I've written another story where it comes up. I certainly think there's a lot that could be done with the idea, but I just haven't had the opportunity to explore it.
1489124 Thanks. :twilightsmile: I don't write this kind of story very often, so I'm glad to hear that I captured Celestia's feelings well.

That was brilliant. You've captured the (possible but incredibly likely) emotions of Celestia very well. Also, the dragon assistant idea is cool :twilightsmile:

Very touching... Also, scarily plausible!

Beautiful...
There is much more I could say about this story, but to do so would muddle how I really feel, since I felt many emotions while reading this. So I feel the simple word of beautiful is sufficient.

I bow to you good sir :ajsleepy:

First thought at the end.

"Good night moon."

Turns around.

"Good night bed."

And thus her nightly ritual continues.

I'm willing to bet that scroll took 1,000 years to get to the moon, and Luna decided to leave once she got it.:rainbowlaugh:
