      Creepy plus an eclipse? Sounds like my idea for a comic.

      This should be a fun read.

      Gasp. Again, GASP! Evil Luna has returned? What does this foretell, I wonder?
      Also, I like how the library was still there, just rotted. I was wondering what a tree would be doing, being hollow naturally.

      @JeanSplice

      Somepony mentioned me by name like I was important? whaaaa? :P

      To everyone reading who might be confused, the Grimdark tag is there because eventually there will be quite a bit that falls under its jurisdiction. For now, it's mostly going to be a normal fic (with maybe a bit of implied stuff, such as what was in the first chapter), and I will mark the first chapter that is clearly Grimdark (violence, etc) appropriately in the document.

      @JeanSplice

      Someone remembered me by name like I'm important, what? :P

      As an explanation for the Grimdark tag, I am planning on having themes fitting it directly later on in the story. For now though, it will mostly be a normal fic, and I will label it as Grimdark in the Chapter when the time comes. So if you don't like gory, feel free to read for the plot for now.

      Randomly self bumping own fic for the win.

      I'm going to try and keep updates weekly, assuming I don't get bogged down with work. You know, to anyone that's actually reading it, which is like 2 people.

      I think there is a small problem with Chapther 4s end.

      Nightmare Moon wouldn´t do stuff like that if she didn´t think it was right to do so in the first place. And considering her position it is obvious that she does have the Right to do so.

      For me that last part in chapter 4 simply doesn´t make a lot of sense.

      It's not completely dark yet, but it'll get there, I promise.

      On a side note, I'm about halfway done with my next chapter, so expect something in a day or two (I like good updates, and fast ones, when that's possible)

      Just finished speed-reading the whole thing. Beautiful. Looking forward to the next update.

      The only thing that has me confused is what spell Twilight was attempting to cast in the first place.

      Well well well, I'm actually rather enjoying this one.

      Do update again soon. I"m curious as to where this is heading and aha, I figured that the only one with enough magic, within the canon cast, to be Nightmare Moon's apprentice would be Trixie. Good job. This is well written, I cannot wait to see more.

      Your pacing gets atrocious in later chapters, but this has a giant potential to become something legendary. I'll be watching.

      Anyone who's getting back into this story, I recommend you check out some of the earlier chapters again. With some gentle (and not-so-gentle) nudging from me, Flashgen really cleaned this story up and made it shine. Chapter 7, in particular, has been drastically improved.

      It was good before, and now it's great.
