*The twilight shadows stretch long and oppressive across the chamber, swallowing the room in a dim, indigo haze. Princess Luna is curled into a tight, trembling ball, her wings clamped shut around her quivering body like a shield of feathers. A single, half-eaten donut is held precariously between her shaking lips, a small, desperate comfort in the face of overwhelming grief. Beneath her, a shimmering pool of tears has expanded, reflecting the dying light of the sun. Her teal eyes are clouded, blurred by a relentless tide of sorrow and self-loathing. As the final sliver of daylight vanishes, the donut slips from her grasp, falling with a wet, hollow splash into the deepening waters that now lap against her waist.*
