I was a young filly that used to fear the darkness, like everypony else. Until Princess Luna showed me the stars. And then I became a Child of the Night.
This story is set in an AU Equestria, shortly before Luna’s 1000-year banishment.
Inspired by the music video Children of the Night. Gari is a fanmade character and does not belong to me.
Thanks to my professor for beta reading.
I love this.
Luna is best pony
When I read the title I thought Luna was gonna adopt her or something.
This is one of my new favorite stories about how Nightmare Moon came to be.
Woah. I just.
I’m taking an astronomy class this semester and light pollution is one of the topics we research in detail. Brilliant idea to use fiction to demonstrate the issues regarding light pollution, trespass, glare, and the affects on people (or ponies). Nicely done!
