6. Sunset by Goldenarbiter

***

Celestia waited. Her sun was low on the horizon, waiting for the final push. Her strength ebbed.

She lay her head on her hooves, feeling the cold grass beneath her soft fur. The shadow of a willow tree was fading long into the distance as the sun set further. The tree held an ancient stone in it’s gnarled roots; a stone whose carvings had long since faded.

Celestia still remembered what the stone said. She had carved it, after all. “Here lay Twilight, The best that ponydom had to offer. Sister, Lover, Friend.”

She could feel the weight of the stone on her conscious still. Millenia had passed, yet she still felt the weight.

She lay there, contemplating their lives together. As the sun finally fell from the sky, Celestia closed her eyes, for the last time.
