An Audience with Princess Luna.
She knew something would help, an small private audience between her and the human in her own dream, it'll be enough to talk without the frantic nature of the nightmare and give him some breathe and while she would love to gallop there and hug him, telling him that it was just an nightmare but she refrained for his and her own sake as he needed said breathe and because she couldn't trust herself, she was sane for being an alicorn yes, but that sanity is a bit... fragile.

If she wants to do this, she would do this slow and controlled as possible.

Her own glows as she prepare the transition, only then the human got his bearings and noticed her with wide eyes, it was just then, she transported her and Equestria's guess onto her own dreamscape.

***

You had that nightmare again. You escaped from the mares that you thought to be your lovers only for the façade and be a mind control ploy and the worst part, they thought you were the responsable of it; their pleasured, friendly faces morphed into heartbreaking ones; confused, betrayed and scared visages that turned quickly into into anger, enraged, hateful faces, kind of heartwrenching to look at.

This... however, was far.. explicit than the previous ones.

It wasn't the first time you dreamed of being the center of those Witch Hunts; some began because you ate meat and be omnivorous, because you were human, weird looking, wielded magic or just by looking at them, ogling them, followed by an heartpounding chase but all tend to end very... messingly, its often start with an combination of all the mentioned but all related to ponies seeing something related to you that they didn't like. You knew that those dreams were product of your self-doubt upon entering this world, they started after you began to work on the internal parts of your home and it hadn't stopped ever since, it is one of the reason why you sealed off your dreamscape and mind so Luna didn't come to your mind and see your, rather, disturbing nightmares, hell, even some of your dreams involve things... not safe for royal eyes, you didn't wanted to be alienated and get onto their wrong foot or hoof with the rulers of this world.

So when you were surrounded by the mane six and the royal guard, you braced yourself for the inevitable end and wake up with sweat on your body and adrenaline on your system followed by an mild insomnia...

That until you heard an new voice, shouting with a strong volume that was almost... supernatural, commanding but you didn't looked, you yelped and waited for the end...

...

...

And the end didn't came..?

What?

You slowly but cautiously got up as you open your eyes and looked around and noticed something unusual; the small army, the princesses, the mares and the mane six, all of them were... gone, as if they were never there. Your cautious turned into confusion as the castle that was the world of your dreams began to morph and shrink, shifting onto something else..

But your eyes widen noticing one figure that didn't disappeared alongside the other ponies, tall and regal as the white alicorn that judged you, her dark blue coated with an ethereal starry mane, her expression was of pure concentration as her horn flared with strong dark blue color.

"Princess... Luna?" You stutter on pure surprise as you realized that that mare that come to your window and balcony wasn't an projection but the actual princess of the night but how? The charms that protected your mind from foreign intrusions were there, right...? oh no...

You forgot to cast them, you kind of focusing on a small nap that you did thought on doing the spell at all.

She saw all of that? Now that you think about it, she didn't turn immediately hostile.

You didn't had time to enter into an conversation as her horn shone in pure white, encompassing her and then your form for an brief second then it ceased immediately and upon noticing, you came to realized that you weren't anymore on the floating castle but rather on a night themed room.

Luna's room.

"At ease, human." You heard her talk in a evenly tone, her posture regal and composed, radiating elegance and royal air and yet her tone radiated warm, it was an welcoming sight. "My dream and yours are now connected, for here, no nightmares shall torture your psyche while we're here" She states proudly.

This... wasn't exactly how you wanted to meet with an Royal Alicorn upon visiting this world, in fact, you dreaded to think on how long she's been watching, you often thought of Luna as the more... martial and rigid between the two sisters and coming from an old time, she might completely disapprove on what you dreamed of and-

"You have nothing to fear, and yes I did saw it all from start of such sizable yet lovely dream of a herd in ongoing mating and it's regrettable break as it morphed into an nightmare that shouldnt ever be, such large yet quite healthy libido should be cultivated more and not tempered by previous experiences." W-what?

"...What?"

"It is there something on the matter?" The Dark Alicorn asked, tiling her head a bit on confusion.

"S-Sorry, your highness." You bowed a bit, luna rolled her eyes a bit but had this amused visage. "But I don't quite follow on what you meant."

"You hadn't the need to address me as Princess within this realm, Luna is quite fine." She says on a controlled yet levely tone and smile on her muzzle but it morphed into something else, curiosity as well... pity? "And while I had so many questions about you and your kind all in while formerly greeting you on to our lands in the proper Equestrian manner, your dream tells me something I quite don't understand, so I must know... what happened to you?"
