sombra x luna x fleur

i will have a fleur piece done next i PROMISE KSAJDH

but here for now i was testing some brushes, this piece was also inspired by OrphicSwanart 's luna piece, go check it out over here !! but for some context on this drawing, it was actually originally meant to be a joke,,,and then it escalated. so DSKJHKA ANYWAYS

my headcanon design for sombra has a ruby horn as all umbrums have crystal horns, some even aquiring a feature known as the "creeping crystal" when the crystal on the horn begins to spread. it often stops and doesn't hinder the umbru's life at all ! it's just a natural part of them, and when the crystal breaks it regrows slowly.

sombra had been a king of the crystal empire briefly, technically entitled to the throne, he was able to gain legitamacy. but the disdain and spite of his people who rejected him had brought weakness to the crystal heart, so in order to protect the empire, sombra would fight off the wendigos himself. during his short reign, luna was sent to visit him. the stressed ruler had no intention of finding a partner, but somehow, it seemed the night queen had a strange effect on his guarded heart.

for so many years he'd been alone, yet suddenly, he found himself pining after this goddess in mortal body. luna at the time herself was actually avoiding equestria and used this trip as an excuse to escape her sister's overbaring rule of most citzens of equestria. she was sent to check on status of the crystal empire, as the new ruler was undoubtly seen as intimidating, as many a pony would speak poorly of him and luna the curious to see if that was truly the case.

surprise to her, she found herself intruiged by him. he was not the tyrant the "escapees" claimed him to be, he was not the destroyer, cruel, uncaring conqueror of lands. he was an emperor protecting his people, powering the heart merely with his own love for the ponies who rejected him at every turn.

on some nights, luna would stay with the royal and speak casually with him. and over time, the two fell in love. luna returned to equestrial but would leave easily, hardly with any notice from anypony, and spend days with sombra.

unfortunately, rumors spread about how the king had gone too far with his power. he'd used the crystal heart to entice the queen into loving him, and that he must be stopped. an uprise began, and luna was forced to flee the kingdom, unable to bring her lover with him. begging celestia to save sombra, convince the citzens to stop and to bring peace again.

celestia, protective as she was, hadn't listened. she believed her ponies and had banished sombra, who also unluckily at the time was busy fighting wendigo spirits, with the sudden appearences of an equestrian army, sombra was unable to handle all. and a wendigo had possessed him. corrupting his physical form, celestia was forced to banish sombra to the frozen abyss. with that, in sombra's last stitch effort to save his ponies, he'd tried to reinforce the protection spell. but his corrupted state caused him to vanish the empire completely.

the sun queen, dispaired, returned home, and announced the loss of the empire. and the loss of the shadow king. luna was devestated, heartbroken and began to resent her sister for not listening. she didn't care, she hardly even tried to hear reason. and that was what began the madness of the night queen.
