One thousand years. This was the sentence of Princess Luna's banishment. For one thousand years she was exiled to the moon, everypony knows that. She was cast away from Equestria for trying to rule the land of her big sister. Had she won, I may not be out here today, but in Equestria where we would no longer lurk in the shadows we grew accustomed to. But that is not so, and for the better it isn't. We dwell out here peacefully, and that is the reason I am writing. I am calling out to earth ponies, pegasus, and unicorns alike, so they may hear the true story. The truth that wasn't written in the Equestrian history books. A truth that like a whisper, was swept away by the wind. This is the true story of Nightmare Moon, our Queen.
