Rant about NMM:
Listen to the Episode 1 intro - Luna shut herself out, and became NMM voluntarily. NMM was not a seperate entity. About this Art: ![]() |

@gill Tell me about it. I like Celestia and she gets a crap deal while the fans extol Luna's purity. |

@ artist:
Please do not take this wrong- I have nothing but respect for your beautiful art. This is awesome. Now for a general comment: I think i am seriously burned-out on Crying Luna as a general concept. |

My interpretation is that when Celestia first used the Elements on Nightmare Moon, Luna _refused_ to give up the Nightmare. The Elements were unable to purify her without destroying her in the process, and so Celestia was forced to banish her instead (this is also why the Elements didn't purify Discord, there has to be a desire to change for them to work.) So, the time Nighmare Moon/Luna spent on the moon was necessary. It forced her to live with what she'd become long enough that when she returned there was a seed of loneliness that the Elements could work with this time around. |
