The night reigns eternal.
Nightmare Moon sits the Equestrian throne from her castle in the City of Everfree. From there, her rule is undisputed and unshakable. Ponies tremble beneath her, both for her wrath and necessity, her magic all that is keeping the tidally locked world alive. With one side facing away from her sister's hated sun, and the other obscured in a veil of shadow blocking almost all light, by her grace alone does enough warmth peek through that Equus and its peoples might yet live.
It is a reign of terror. Of fear. Absolute and unmoved.
Until she met the foal. Then Princess Luna began to find something she had been missing for far too long...

good story
I wonder what role the changelings in this story are to play
I'm looking forward
Wat... Did someone really go here to randomly dislike comments? Hmm, 10 bits someone will probably do that to this comment.

I wonder if that tag was a mistake. I don't see it currently.

The story is in changeling groups, no tag though since you can only have five...
10487033
Ah, didn't notice that. Doesn't show up when looking at the chapter page.
Well, this took my interest. Tracking.
Great start. Looking forward to seeing more!
Ooooohh this looks interesting 👀 definitely adding to my tracking list
Thank you all so much for your support and I hope you wonderful people enjoy the rest of the story once it's complete.
I love alternative stories with a gray morality. I will definitely be tracking this story.
Good to see another "what if" story from you.
I think the Story is Dead.....

Um, what? I started just less than two weeks ago. I merely have more than one project to juggle, so there may be some time between each update.

And thats the Reason why so much Storys are here Cancelled ore in hitarus for over 6-8 Years....i have See too much Work here broken up just because the Autors have no Time to finish the Story.....i hope YOU are NOT one of this People....eh?
10508761
My Point is just: Dont even begin a Project if you are not 100%Percent sure if you have really Time and the calm Nerves for it! Example: i wanted to make a Crossover-Comic (not MLP) Back in 2013. It should be a Crossover from my own Figures with Chucky, Freddy Krueger, Belladonna (adgth) and many more Cameros.After i had began two Panels,i had more,and more,AND MORE Ideas whitch i wanted to Pack in the Story.Plus Work......then some Day i just gave up......i hated it......i don't wanted it anymore.I don't Had a clean Head and no more Freetime,and in the end i Cancelled the Project

I love Princess Luna, I wonder what surprises you have in store for me this time?
Story’s a NM rule are always fascinating to see how the author takes it. So can’t wait for this one
Tom117z,
Hey buddy love your work and try not to let our rather inpatient nature as fans get you down. We are hooked, so we need our fix, and we tend to forget our ability to remain cordial to the updates of your works in progress. Keep it going, or put it the story to bed it is up to you, but you are certainly are under no obligation to keep us up to date if you so choose. Your fans will be here when and if you are able to continue.
With regard to the fan who thinks the story is dead this not meant to call you out, or antagonize you in anyway. I too have felt the sting of having read a great incomplete story that I needed to know what happened next. I have reached out to those authors with no response nor updates to blogs, sometimes for years. This does suck, but we must remember the lives of these authors are a mystery to we the fans. Obligations in their lives may keep them away, or they lose the spark to create. Whatever it may be we should try to remember that this is free and we get what we get . Would it be great to get updates or constant feed back from authors? It would be nice, but again the motivations behind the lack of communication and updates to stories shouldn’t have us scare, or even pester the author away. I am certainly not saying that the fan had this intention, as I understand their feelings on this matter. Tomz117 has kept us apprised in the past and has updated stories fairly regularly as well, so perhaps cutting him some slack would be in our best interests as fans. We may never know the Tom’s reasons and we should have the decency to either walk away and find a new story until he posts, or to simply be patient.
This is your choice of course on how to act and it is not my place to judge you either way in the matter.

I do still intend to update, but the problem child of years that was the previous sapped a lot of my energy and motivation, not to mention time, but even when moments did open up and I sat down to write very little came to me. I DO still intend to complete ALL these fics, those incomplete tags bother me.
Later today, as a matter of fact, I'm posting a new one that I'm collaborating on with another author, Skijarama, like in Little Changes. I find it easier to work with him along for the ride, so at least I'll be updating something. Though I'm mainly hoping this project, plus the Gen 5 reveal soon, can get my arse moving in regards to the other fics I got going.
Hang in there.

Tom,
It’s all good brother. I was just tying to let that certain fan that posted a little down the page to kind of lay off you in a way that wouldn’t result in a comment war. The fan that commented he thought the story was dead. I really hate that some readers/fans of certain works let the wait time in updates give justifications to leave snide comments to authors. Now the fan in question could have been just joking but judging on the back and forth between you two, he was either vastly out his depth on the comedic level, or he was borderline harassing you. To me antagonizing the artist won’t get you the result you want, unless his goal was to never have new chapters written ever.
Thanks for the update and the new callab project Skijarama /toneshift it is much appreciated. I do hope you don’t think I was pressuring you for updates; I’m grateful for whatever I get from you guys.
Regarding Gen 5 I’m waiting cautiously but not too optimistic. I do understand it is the same world as Gen4 but sometime has passed ( centuries I think I heard), so if done well could be like a Star Trek to Star Trek TNG thing going on or fizzle out in one season. (I’m going off what Dr. wolf had posted on series)
OooooOh, good story idea for you, since we didn’t get Chrysalis redemption story in Gen 4, which was your theory for series finale from a jibber jabber episode. You could craft a story in Gen 5 or you could still use Gen 4 if you want for a chrysalis redemption story. Love that bug 🕷!
I think you or Skijarama tend to capture Chrysie rather well, so it would be a great read.
Keep up the good work brother, and I’ll be there to read it.
