Prolouge 1 - The First Mare on the Moon
The man woke up with a start, gasping for breath as his eyes darted around the unfamiliar surroundings. He quickly sat up, only to realize that something was horribly wrong. He couldn't feel his fingers; they were numb without any sensation. Slowly, he opened his eyes and looked down at his hands, only to find black stumps at the end of his arms. They were no longer hands at all - they were hooves.
Panic surged through him as he scrambled to his feet, his heart racing with fear. He felt foreign energy coursing through his body, and as he tried to take a step forward, he realized with shock that he had wings and a horn.
He tried to calm himself down, but it was difficult. The fear and confusion that gripped him were overwhelming. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, focusing on the sound of his own breathing.
As he opened his eyes again, he noticed something else about his new form. His coat was black as the night sky, and his mane was a flowing, starry cascade that moved without the wind. He couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder at the beauty of his new appearance, even as he struggled to accept it.
He took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down, and looked around once more. It was then that he realized where he was - he was on the moon.
As he tried to make sense of his surroundings, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, as if someone was trying to force their way into his mind. He groaned and clutched his head, trying to fend off the invading presence - a strange sensation in his mind, like a jumble of fragmented memories that didn't belong to him.
He heard painful groaned of a husky female voice as the memories threatened to overwhelm him. He realized with horror that they were the memories of the real Nightmare Moon, broken fragments of her mind that had somehow found their way into his own.
When the pain finally subsided, he shuddered as he recalled the Nightmare Moon's descent into madness, terrible things she had done before she was sealed away on the moon, terrible things SHE had done to reach that breaking point, and what she had done to herself years of isolation on the moon.
He shuddered as he realized that he had scars on his body from self-inflicted wounds hidden under his soft fur.
He gritted his teeth, trying to push the memories out of his mind, and focused instead on his new abilities. He spread his wings and kick the ground, soaring above the barren landscape of the moon with help of muscle memory.
He tentatively flapped his wings, feeling the rush of air beneath them. The sensation was both exhilarating and terrifying, as he struggled to come to terms with his new reality. He had so many questions - how had he ended up in this body? What had happend to his body? Was he really a human, or was he some sort mental illness conjured by dying mind of Nightmare Moon?
The times he and his friends had spent lost in fantasy worlds, playing role-playing games and reading isekai novels. It had always been a way to forget about their problems, to escape from the real world for a little while. Maybe the immortal goddess of night also yearned for something similar, he could understand why someone like Nightmare Moon would want to escape to such a place like earth, a world without world ending threats and unpredictable magical mishaps.
He felt a twinge of sadness as he realized that he might never see his friends and family again. He didn't even know if they were real or just part of Nightmare Moon's imagination. But he refused to let himself be consumed by grief. He must keep going.
Those things don't matter, he cannot do anything to change what already happened. For now, he knows that he had to keep his sanity intact if he had any hope of making it off the moon. He tried to push the memories out of his mind, focusing instead on his new surroundings as he slowly descends onto the surface.
He winced as he landed roughly on the surface of the moon. He was still getting used to his new form, and he had a feeling that he was going to be stumbling around like a newborn foal for a while.
He then looked up at the stars, marveling at their beauty, and felt a strange sense of peace wash over him. He knew they will help him escape but know that it is still not the time. For now he must bid his time, find ways to occupy his mind, to keep his sanity intact for as long as possible.
He glanced down at his foreleg, at the scars that marred his his skin under his otherwise flawless coat. He promised to himself to not give in to madness like the real Nightmare Moon had. He had to stay focused, to keep his mind sharp and clear.
He knew that he was facing an uncertain future, but he was determined to make the most of it. He was the Mare of the moon now, whether he liked it or not, and he was going to do everything in his power to ensure that he didn't suffer the same fate as the original one.
He spread his wings and took off into the air again, feeling the rush of adrenaline as he soared higher and higher. He was the Mare of the moon, and he was going to make the most of it.
He will lived a happy life. That's the promise he, no, she made to herself. and maybe back to the world she had come from if it exists.
"THE FUN HAS BEEN DOUBLED!"
Ah, the royal canterlot voice. Cannot helped with that one, really.
The Mare of the moon flew on, her wings beating a steady rhythm against the endless expanse of the stars.

Good beginning, i await the next chapter with impatience.
only problem, a repetition in one of your sentence:
it should probably be :
What exactly is a faithful night and is it different from a fateful night?
That's a really good start! Can't wait to see where this is going to go and where Luna is going to fit in all of this.
11550123
im gonna guess nightmare and luna were one and the same in this story seeing how nightmare seems to have killed herself from isolation. I am interested to see how things will progress on both sides when the main story starts as on one side we will have twilight sent to ponyville only for nothing of note to happen and on the other side is whatever new nightmare gets up to.
Can't wait to see where you take this.
Looks interesting but needs a grammar check
Love to see more human turned into Nightmare Moon fic’s! Good start can’t wait to see more!
This seems like it'll be interesting. Human turned Nightmare Moon stories are some of my favourites.
11550553
man that story description alone is such a word salad that I can't even bring myself to try and read the first chapter
11549847
Thank you very much
11549873
faithful is mean determined in advance by fate
fateful mean loyal
both of them are actual words and pass firefox's spelling check
i changed it to fateful because that fit better.
11550553
i think the best option i have is to left them as is. grammarly always change up my word placement to fits its preset writing style.
Yes the fun has indeed been doubled!

Lets see where you go with this.
I won't criticize your writing skill. The story starts fine. So NMM decided she would swap bod with a rando, huh? Not bad, I like. Missing the guy gradually rationalizing and accepting the situation, but the conclusion has to be enough, I guess. Let's see if this is the 10,368,748th HiE isekai(?) I will dislike or not.
Ah, so it's another Earth then.
Actually, it's the lack of mental stimulation, and not necessarily the lack of social contact. One particular thief spent 27 years alone in a forest playing with his Gameboy and stealing stuff from houses. After he was caught, he was still sane.
Its decent so far
I'll give it a try, I've read most of the fics on this platform with respect to my tastes, it may have a chapter but some that I like don't usually have more than 5 or 6 chapters
It usually ends in me liking the fic, asking for more and waiting.
I'll go with the flow and say that it's between decent and good, it feels nice how it starts, not like the sometimes used "I appeared and got the memories of the previous inhabitant, let's see what I do with this information" which is usually quite boring

Fillies & gentlecolts, please offer a warm welcome to the Dunning-Kruger Effect. (It'll be here all week.)
11550801
Well, sure.
But our world is more like frog in water that is slowly heating up, so boring that most people ignore it. Very much different than exiting dramatic events that happend in equestria.
And that doesn't count, NPCs in gameboy are people too. I know someone who's more shallow than random trainers from pokemon.

Is this what you mean?

Just here to say the synopsis is wrong you wrote Become instead Of Becomes.
the moon has an atmosphere? :badam boom:
Hmm, so after reading the first chapter I have to wonder... What happened to the original Luna? In canon, NMM was essentially a possessed Luna. Did NMM killing herself (I assume that's what happened anyways) cause Luna's death as well? Or is Luna trapped in our MC's head now? Or is she alive but elsewhere?
How will Celestia react to all this?
11570032
im guessing that sunsets and lunas possessions are kinda similer where it was less about a diffrent entity possessing them and more of a case of them being in a kinda magic drunk state where the elements brought them back around to themselves. In other words nightmare was luna but just twisted. maby if luna was less willing to give into her emotions she would have had a similer situation to the pony of shadows and stigion but both sunset and luna got lost in the power and emotions.
Im interested in knowing if the nightmare we have now is the rencarnation of luna/nightmare moon. We kinda have to admit that the elements are weird and have odd effects so if the MC is the rencarnation of luna then we can maby assume that while the seal was in place then any time luna died she would have been brought back after another life due to the whole "nightmare moon seal" needing nightmare moon present.If it turns out the MC was not luna in the past then im interested to find out how someone ended up in nightmare moons body

Query: Does moon in this universe has air of sufficient density to support flying, if at all?
Query: Does moon in this universe has high gravity levels, to support fall damage, as opposed to 1/6 of Earth's gravity for Earth's moon?
interesting story so far

I have long held the belief that the reference "the stars" refered to Twilight's Cutie Mark & the "her escape" referred to Luna.
11603909
Per the comics, yes. The show doesn't get into that
11569912
11603909
Based on the comics, yes. The show doesn't specify how NMM survived.
Doubled
Canon not Cannot
11629700
Fixed the first one(thank), the second is short for "I cannot"
11550801
how does it charge the game boy battery?
"Prologue"

Might not be technically correct, but it was like this because I used numbers to keep track of chapters. Chapter names are laways changing and most chapters didn't get their finalized name until the very moment before publish.
No water, no food, no air but most importantly:
NO HOPE
Luna/Nightmare Moon never know that there was a timelimit to the Banishment.
And after 999 years every hope would be dead anyway.
Luna died a long long time ago... Let's see what this version of Nightmare Moon can make of what remains

Theoretically, their brain could die, if they had not sleep for several centuries or no with to live.
