Description

...What, you don't think Nightmare Moon was the only one that snapped on that fateful day? Legends tell of a dark tale that overcame both princesses when they went to war with one another. They would say that after the great battle Princess Celestia's lamented only grew worse the longer her sister remained on the moon. All the pleasurable company in the land could not console her. She would sit on her throne and gaze off into a corner of the room. Whenever food was offered she would not even bat an eye towards the lustrous platters of exotic dishes before her. It was almost as if the glow of the moon was her last ray of sunshine.

As days passed her hair slowly lost its luminousity, and more and more strands were noticably out-of-place from discontinued brushing; her guards saw a lost version of what was once a great ruler of their proud land. Her behaviour continued to worsen and a temporary senate had to form to govern the land. She stayed in her quarters most of the time; and the last time anyone has heard her spoke was when she ordered her guards to prevent anyone from disturbing her in her own chambers. She needed help and nobody knew what to do.

About 15 days several staff in the palace have noticed their leader walking around the palace grounds... aimlessly. She would stop to look at blank walls... *flip flip flip* Wait... seriously? They literally threw kittens, puppies, and baby ponies at her until she cheered up a little. This is the worst ending ever- what a cop-out! THEY RUINED THE FANDOM!

[*Dumps a box full of kittens onto Sunset Shimmer*]

Hey! What the heck are you- awww who's a good kitteee?! Who's a good kittey?! Snuggie snuggie snuggie snuggie snuggie snuggie snuggie!

I prove my point. Now, if I can get these kittens back to Fluttershy I would- OH CELESTIA; THAT KITTY HAS A BOW on its head!

I wasn't sure how to respond to Princess Celestia banishing her sister being met with a single tear in the season 4 opener. Apparently in my head, spending 21 hours over 3 days working on a single comic strip that tried to make that impact hit harder was the ideal solution... I'm not really sure what my brain was thinking in forcing me into an all-nighter. ****.

I also wanted to stretch my boundaries in comic-making once again; there's a few new tricks I threw into the cogs this time around to make this happen. This would have been impossible to produce using MS Paint alone.
