Don't ignore the sad, tragedy and dark tags!
Many years before Equestria as we know it, there was a battalion of night ponies sent to the Griffon Lands. These were special ones and were taken hostage by a group of griffons. Luna has to make a difficult decision. Little did she know, but Equestrian folklore would know that moment forever.

Cover not owned by me. I am nowhere near that talented. If the artist wishes for me to take it down I will. My first oneshot. May not be my last.
