It has been said that Night Sky Equines will never die. Well, this is true, and also the opposite, on two levels. First, it is true because Crow'sia, me. I have no intentions of ever deleting NSE even though I may let her sit to rot. This make the statement true. However activity, is something entirely different, and when activity dies, so does NSE, but our histories and characters still live on.
Many sites attempt resurrection and die again within a month entirely. We came out of a hiatus at the beginning of last year and managed to stay strong with silly influxes until September where we began to fizzle out. So did many sites though, as school for many started once more. I myself became prey to this, as well as some unexpected personal issues every human will someday face. It is now, on the eve of our third birthday that I wish for NSE to live again, to be the good old haven for horse roleplayers everywhere we always have been. This is different from last time however. This time we are not coming out of a hiatus that was induced, we will be climbing out of the gutters from something we created, something which is not artificial. Bu I believe we can do it, and keep on the legacy that has touched (and sometimes enraged) every person who has passed through the world of Night Sky Equines.
Like a cockroach, we're not going to be crushed that easy.

Phew, now that that's done with let's get into the more gritty stuff. Assuming that people do make a slow return we need to address two important things and a few smaller. The first is simple and involves only the staff Any staff members, you know who you are, if you still want to be on staff then message me with whatever contact info and such you'd like to share. If you'd like to know why, you can view the 'Meet the Staff' page in Game Information.
Now, if there are any welcome backs to be had, and I hope so, we currently have a plot under way. I have thought about it and decided that freezing the seasons and time is not in me, things have gone on as usual. So for a minute, I will be taking control of characters. It is summer of the next year, this is reasonable to assume, we left off on summer and it's been four months since September. Which I'm hoping was summer even though I did freeze that season. The foals who disappeared, have somehow reappeared. They will tell you the story of how Cigarette and Duna vanished in the previous season. No one knows why or how but those two, who, pending Meg and Phoenix's return, may work it out among themselves. Does this mean the end of the Foal Plot? Well, maybe... who knows! But, anyways, it was kind of fermenting long before NSE became in active, so this was a reasonable solution. I only wish it had continued as we'd planned, but that doesn't mean there's no hope, original ideas will just have to be modified.
Anyone looking for an old character profile check the Character Archives, you'll find them under Applications. There's no need to rejoin old characters. If you'd like to kill them off, feel free to post in the Graveyard. Also, the territories are leaderless and memberless. For some reason everyone disbanded. Probably the Gaia striking again. If you were one of the four leads and someone new has taken your territory, don't whine, challenge them for it; if you loose, wait a bit, and try again. I know we have some complex stories with them, the Sandy Shores has a bloodline for instance. (By the way, ya'll can make up your own ranks.)
Anyone with a Studio (aka, a sub-board in Graphic Request) must message me if you want to keep it. You will be given the title Studio Manager so that you can take care of posts in your board.
If I've missed anything, well, I'll mention it somewhere.

Finally, I'd like to welcome anyone new to NSE. And thanks also to anyone who returns. You all keep us going!
