Description
A re-imagining of Nightmare Moon. The idea came to me after I saw DuoCartoonist's music video 'Choices' and the trailers for the Dark Fantasy Card game, Armello, and the disease that afflicted the King of that land, the Rot. Somehow it just rang a few bells and I figured I could apply that to a re-imagining of an afflicted Nightmare Moon and the Tantabus as a mental disease that affects beings of great power that wander the realm of dreams, basically acting in the same way as the Ring, feeding of that persons fears, desires and even loves and twisting them into a corrupted shadow, a wraith, of their former selves. A disease that would normally kill the host, but thanks to Discord manipulating Celestia into unwittingly turning herself and her sister into Alicorns, thus making them immortal, the disease continued to slowly consume Luna's mind, until she becomes Nightmare Moon.

"My family made this Kingdom, and I can break it! Where where you, dear sister, when I was made Queen in your stead? Where were you when the people threw me on a pedestal I wasn't ready for? And now you return, after decades of searching for you, to claim my crown!? You dare to usurp me? You dare to betray ME!?"

"No, I...I'm trying to save you! I've always tried to save you...."

"Too little too late, Celestia. Equestria will always be MINE!"
