I like the subject matter, and so far, I like what I see. I just started writing fanfics myself, so good luck, fellow noob!
Let Luna be happy Celestia!!!!!
Have you ever considered submitting this story to Equestria Daily? You can find out how to do so here.
I actually had a friend who read the entire story suggest that I submit it to Equestria Daily. I take that as a big compliment, thank you! I may try to do that. I've been posting the story here to get people's opinions on it. I wanted to be able to spruce it up if I had weaknesses in the story, but I may consider it. Thank you for the link!
Ooh, I think I know where this is going.
Thank you very much! I wish I could get more people to view it, but I'm happy to at least have a few followers and people who find the story interesting. It's a bit disappointing when people 'dislike' the story but don't tell you why. Is it the subject matter? Is it the writing? I want to grow as a writer, but I can't do that if I don't know what's wrong, hah. Ah well, with as many stories as there are on this site, I shouldn't be too surprised. Thank you for taking the time to read it!
In my opinion, to dislike a story plainly because of the subject is stupid. If you don't like the subject, don't read it. Simple, it's a shame some idiots can't understand that.
This is a bit off from the topic, just wanted to say it's nice that you update very often.
Oh, that's fine! You're welcome. I like it when authors update frequently; it makes it easier to remember what happens from chapter to chapter. I still hope to continue posting 2-3 times a week. I hope you're enjoying it.
I'm glad you are enjoying it! I should be posting the new chapter on Sunday.
I can't wait to read what happens next!!!
Now the stories getting really good. Keep up the good work.
1 down (Sombra), 1 to go (Luna).
If certain actions on the site were allowed e.g. making alt accounts. I would sit here and make a decent amount of them, unfortunately though, I can't do this as its breaking site rules. However, to get this story the views it up most deserves in fact I'm going to advertise this story in a blog post right now. If I can help in any other ways to get you more views, let me know. This story is deserving of my help.
That's so sweet of you! I'm very glad that you like it that much.
Your comment gave me the biggest smile tonight. Thank you! To be honest, I was very much while I was writing that chapter. Actually, I wanted to shake him out of it during the Transformation chapter too.
Yeah, he's having a rough time right now.
Ooo this is getting good!
Long Live the King indeed.
Luna is going to be mad as a hornet, I would guess.
The heat has been turned up.
Oh and finally catching up!
First off, I love this chapter.
Btw, have a release on the next chapter?
I've actually looked on some boards where people have discussed what Celestia's "evil" name would be. Luna was changed to Nightmare Moon, so I wanted to think of a good name for Celestia. Solar Flare seemed too...well..."bright" so Solar Nightflare worked a bit better since the Nightmist/Nightmare Forces seem to bring out the darkness in the ponies, so to speak. Also, a combination of Solar and Flare seemed to work the best for her (in my opinion). Or were you referring to the attack "solar flare"? In that case...yeah, don't know lol. I went with what sounded right.
The next chapter should be released tomorrow 10/1, and the Epilogue will come out hopefully on the weekend.
I'm so sad for them all!
And I know it will only get worse!
Such a good story! I'm sad that it's going to end.
Maybe you can make a mini series, where it's in sombra's point of view.
THAT WOULD BE EPICALLY AWESOME!!!!!!
I've really liked this story, probably the story I've been most interested in awhile. I'm glad I could see this story come together, and I would love to see your other ideas, stated in the authors note be made.
Thank you very much I'm very glad that you stuck with it to the end. I'm hoping to write "Birth of the Moon" soon, but with NaNo coming up, I may not be able to get to the other ones for some time.
But then those upvotes would be completely hollow and meaningless.
Kind of realise that now. I said that back then. But now, I just think EQD is the best way forward for this story. Either that or a sequel.
I have quite enjoyed this story, thank you for the good work.
