"It's been three weeks. Three weeks, but it may as well have been three years, a lifetime, an eternity."

When her oldest and dearest friend falls ill, Twilight is forced to cope and reckon with the guilt and heartache that comes with the dwindling life of her favorite little dragon.

There comes a time when the light must go out; but how do you know if you've burned brightly enough?

Despite her appearance, behavior and unfriendly ways, Gilda isn't that bad. She proves this to Fluttershy when she attempts to redeem herself for the sins she made.

Friendship lasts forever.

Right?

Three years ago, Gilda and Rainbow Dash became fast friends at Junior Speedsters' Flight Camp. Time took its toll, though, and the pair drifted apart.

When Gilda tries to reconnect with her not-so-long lost friend, she'll discover that things can change a pony after three years: a new home, new job, and new friends.

This story continues in Summer Days
