More royal pony sisters, please!
Luna has never thought she really deserved her subjects' or her sister's forgiveness. Often, she questioned it, though she kept these thoughts to herself. When the pain of her past and her guilt continually eat away at her, she feels she deserves the pain, but she can only live with it for so long. Luna doesn't believe she should be in Equestria, let alone remain a princess. However, somepony else thinks very differently. If only Luna could see what she sees.

I've never understood Luna's guilt to be honest. We know she was Nightmare Moon for like three minutes with Celestia being the only witness to it which is probably why her existence and what she tried to do was thought to be made up until 1000 years later. Overall good read.

This.
8689121
Um, what?
8689128
I'm agreeing with you.

Oh, OK thanks.

First, thank you for the comment.
Second, I actually agree with you. Even if you count Nightmare Moon's actions in the pilot episode, her guilt is still overblown. I just theorize it's more about her failure to control herself and what she could've done that causes the guilt, or she actually doesn't remember that well and assumes she hurt a lot of ponies that night.
I don't think it's weird her existence and what she attempted would've been thought to be made up, however. A thousand years later, any ponies who would've been alive during that time would be long gone and the history would definitely be skewed a lot by that time.
Why oh why couldn't they have done something like this in the show? I mean, they made a decent attempt, but the situation is so much heavier than how they portrayed it.
Did you mean "moon"?
Overall, very nice story.

Yes, I did! Thank you. I've corrected it.
I'm guessing because of the show's target audience, they don't want to show the real effects of mental illness. Even the episode where the tantabus is featured is more about how Luna's guilt almost hurt other ponies instead of focusing on how she shouldn't hurt herself because she doesn't deserve it. That they omitted Celestia from that episode is absurd. Of all ponies, the one pony who was really hurt the most, and the one who grieved the loss of Luna for a millennium, absolutely needed to be present. Really, the whole concept was enough to have been a two-part finale and give both sisters some well-written closure, but Starlight Glimmer was favored over that.
Amazing!
