Come Little Children...
Blink. Blink.
The droplets of water fell softly upon the stone paving, nothing stirring in the noiseless night; all was quiet over Canterlot, only the occasional fox rustling the far-off heather. Above, the darkness was not quite black, but a deep purple in colour, with stars peppering the abyss that was night.  Strangely, the air neither tasted nor smelt of anything. Shadows were guided towards the cobbles by the light of the street lamps. Luna's Moon shone full and bright onto the city below.
A slender mare  stepped from the shadows, her hoof making little noise on the facade of the balcony.
