Both are very cool, one more carefully composed than the other.  I voted for that other: Lunar Sea, a fantastic track with all sorts of different moods and some of Lattimer's most fierce guitar playing.  Barden's keyboard solo is one of my favorites ever.

Choosing between these two is like choosing between my testicles.

Lunar Sea is an excellent progressive track,but the Nimrodel suite is one of the most sublime and special pieces of music I've ever heard.My vote goes to the Nimrodel/The Procession/The White Rider .

The White Rider for me, though I also like Lunar Sea (and I like it even better on it's live version with Mel Collins on Sax).

Lunar Sea is my least favorite from Moonmadness, as I don't connect with the guitar solo.  So I went with that Mirage suite
