Thousands of years ago Princess Luna grew jealous of her sisters' popularity and transformed into the dark visage of Nightmare Moon, but is that all that happened?
Celestia may have been able to defeat Nightmare Moon with the power of the Elements of Harmony, but were rendered useless when turned on the Element of Magic herself, Midnight Sparkle. But in her grief-stricken mind Midnight fled to mourn the banishment of her fiancée. But now, almost 1000 years later with Nightmare Moon's return imminent, Midnight has a new plan.
It's been awhile since I've written anything, and this idea has been in my head since 2017, I just couldn't find the inspiration to but it to actual words. So, here it is, my attempt at a longer story with a premise I've wanted on this website for half a decade. I've read a lot of romance between Luna and Twilight but the ones where Twilight is born in a different time period usually have her as Luna's daughter. I wanted one where Twilight was the lover of Luna and willingly joined her in the fight against Celestia. It turns out I couldn't find one, so I decided to write it myself.
Like I said, I've not written seriously in awhile so stuff might look really weird, please point out typos, weird commas, or run-on sentences -- I tend to struggle with stuff like that a lot. Plus, there will be many chapters where I attempt to use Old English, if there are any glaring issues with my attempts at that, let me know.
Also, if anyone knows of a cover image that would be good for this story, let me know
This is a lovely concept. Looking forward to more
This is a neat take on having an AU relationship between Twilight and NMM, curious to see where it's going!
That was a interesting story goodluck with the rest of it.
Def. Looking forward to some more of this
That was a good chapter.
That was a good chapter.
Shining Armor and Cadance exist thousand years ago?
Isn’t Beatrix supposed to be meek foal that used Trixie as extrovert façade?
Started of with a harem?
I think it would be Better to keep midnight’s backstory a secret, ir she’s going to have the same one as cannon, only thousand years ago.
My head cannon was something along the line of “A battle mage from old magi orders of the long-collapsed Unicornia, who tried to go back to their glory days by bringing down newly formed equestrian government, with an artificial windigo. Twilight recognized the wrongness of allied but too late. So, she sacrificed herself by using forbidden magic that powered by force greater than any mortal can handle, stars. Harmony recognized her deeds and saved her life by gaining Alicorn hood.”
At least before this chapter.
It’s great to see you update this! Hopefully we can see more updates in the future!!
Great story so far
