Description

Tell me what you want, I'm in love with this drawing <3 It was really difficult but I DID IT La la la la Ahem.

Just like her elder sister, Luna has got marks on her body: to be more precise, two crescents, one on her back and one on her neck. She's obviously smaller than Celestia, but a little bigger than Twi and Cadance and definitely taller than another normal pony-Unicorn-Pegasus. She has thicker fur and longer tufts on her ankles and base of tail. It's possible to really see the night sky in her mane, feathers and tail, but they're untouchable. Her ears are a little bigger than normal because she still affects of her Nightmare Moon form. Speaking of which: the creation of the spell was incredibly long and difficult, and at the beginning, when Luna wasn't feeling hate in her heart yet, it was a form changing spell for animals and creatures, for example to turn a bunny into a tortoise or a Griffin into a Zebra. It was coming out perfectly well, thanks to the great diligence Luna put in her studies, but then the Alicorn started to gain conscience of what was happening and felt jealous. She said to Celestia that she didn't want her to take part in the project because it was a birthday surprise, and began to change her aim. Now she wanted to transform herself into a greater and more powerful creature than her sister, though she didn't know how the result could have been. But in fact, what happened was exactly what she was looking forward to. She had now the chance to obscure her sister just like she did with her, and felt effective for the first time. 
Performing the spell took her a lot of energy and might, because she knew it would have had side effects. The most dangerous was that, when she was in that dark form, she was no longer immortal. She could have failed, dying, or maybe she could have created another spell to kill the deathless with her new magic.
Though, those ambitions did nothing but fill her heart with more and more proud and rage at the same time, and a single moment was enough for Celestia to send the dark mare to the Moon. During those 1'000 years, Luna cried every day, at the beginning wishing to come back but take her revenge again, but then her tears started to be made of pure sorrow and guilt. How could she have done those things? What had she become? A monster, she always thought. She slowly changed her form again and after a few years she came back to normal, weaker than ever. She had cried all her tears now and she had shouted with all of her voice, all she could do was sighing and staring at the black sky, hoping that her beloved sister was looking at it, too. 
Then why did she behave so aggressively when she came back to Ponyville? Because she never had the opportunity to learn how to get along with others: when she was young, she didn't like socializing a lot. Since that day, Celestia took her under wing and became the big sister she should have always been. And now, Luna's dreams were no longer about fear and darkness, especially when the prior evening she was fighting playfully with her sister to see who was stronger. Naturally, the dark one always won.

I hope you like this one as well, and I want to thank everyone who appreciates my art <3
