Hey everyone!

Here's my participation to the new Ponies at Dawn album, Eternal. This song is called Tsuki no Hangyaku (Lunar Rebellion) and it's sang in Japanese (because why not? :p)

This track is also part of my big project currently named "IE", which is going to be a series of songs, narration and stories. Considering the show will end soon, I thought about telling my own fictional story, some sort of musical MLP fanfic I guess.

Speaking of this project, there are two songs (already released) which are part of the IE project: Sun of the Night & Night Queen. "Lunar Rebellion" is, chronologically speaking, between those two.

Here's a quick "synopsis" (if we can call this like that):
So, this is about two sisters, Celestia and Luna, who're both princesses who rules their country together. Both of her are Alicorns, powerful creatures who hold a darkness deep inside them.
One day, due to a reason unknow to Luna, her sister let her darkness "eat" her and became Daybreaker, the Solar Empress, who want eternal day and rules on a land of fire.
Soon enough, with the manipulative words of Daybreaker, the country were divided in two sides: those who worshiped the sun goddess and devoted their live to the Solar Empire, and those who didn't want to be controled by this tyran and joined Luna in the Lunar Republic.
Luna quickly gathered courageous and skilled fighters and formed the Lunar Rebellion - This is where the story of this song begins...

I want to thank Satomi a lot for the incredible lyrics and vocals she made, as well as the amazing topline melody which fits the song very well! She was really nice to work with and I will surely work with her again! :D
She doesn't really have any links for me to put here, she just wanted me to credit her. But then again, big thank you to Satomi! :D

I also want to thank GashibokA for those three wonderful artworks! As always an impeccable work! :)

Hope you'll like the song! And stay tuned for "Legion EP" and more information about the big "IE project"! ;)

Lyrics & translation by Satomi
(I only put the english translation, as YouTube got some length restriction when it comes to description, apparently)

With this moon light
We have nothing to fear
So it’s time to fight
We can’t go back anymore

Devote your everything to this darkness of the night and the moon
Swear to bring the eternal night, the night without a dawn
Now it’s time

For our future, make up your mind and fight until the end
This is the lunar rebellion against the sun with our pride and nobility

Keep going to win
With the moonlight
Seize the freedom
Even though you have to sacrifice yourself

Keep going to win
With the starlight
Seize the freedom
Even though your body gets broken
We have to keep going and win
Burn your soul like a shining star in the sky

She landed on this ground with burning wings
She has no smile like before
And my voice can’t reach to her

The promise we made and the days we spent together
They all disappeared in the light
And even a little hope can’t be realized

They all fade away

Now they are broken down
All my comrades
They are burning to death
Covered with the sunlight

Now they are broken down
No one is left
They are burning to death
With the sunlight
The dawn is getting close
The darkness is fading away
Even shining stars fell from the sky
And now I’m alone

"Luna... luna... listen to my voice...
Luna... you can hear me don’t you?
Now it’s time to use my power
Stand up, you have to win don’t you?
Leave it all to me
Accepte me and get my power, and awaken the true power
There’s no way but this to beat the sun
There’s only way left
Leave your old name and accept your new name “Nightmare Moon”..."
