Twilight Sparkle is dying and Celestia is near a shell of her former self. Her biggest regret is having been unable to say goodbye, so she asked that Luna deliver a message for her. When Luna tries to do so, she finds something much different than what either sister could have ever imagined.

This story is a tribute to DemonFyre who passed away this past week.
The world was not meant for one as beautiful as you. - HudsonHawk.

Though I never knew you and I now never will, know that you hold a special place in my heart. Let sweet oblivion ease your aches and sorrows.
Sleep well, little one. - Swiss Alien Narwhal.

I don't know who you were, but you were clearly a great inspiration. I hope you made your life worth living, and that you know that thanks to stories like this one, there will always be a way for people to remember you. - Leonexus.

Octavia knows she is dying, and, rather than dwell on how young she still is, she chooses to think back on her life. Chooses to remember and reflect on all that she can; the bad, as well as the good. A single realization comes to mind as she does so. As hard as it might be to believe, is it truly the time we live that matters most? Or is it the quality of whatever time we had with those who touched our hearts the most?

Dedicated to DemonFyre. We'll all be here for you, I promise. We love you.
