In the magical land of Equestria, ponies speak of great heroes and greater adventures, of foes overcome, and of hardships bravely faced. This is not one of those stories.

Sometimes, a mare is just a mare. Yet, just sometimes, even an unremarkable footnote of history might be worth listening to. Princess Luna loves her little ponies, be they old or young -- and on the night before the new year's dawn, she takes the time to visit a jaded old mare.

Because even a pony in the twilight of her days deserves help, whether she will admit it or not.

It's a nice, sweet story. Heartwarming, just like the holiday it's set during. Well done!

¡Carol has the job SnowDrop invented over a thousand years ago!

Who's Snowdrop?

Aww, that was beautiful man, many feels were felt. :raritycry:

What a beautiful little tale.

Nice story.

This chapter at least could use horizontal lines between scenes. There is a button for that.

Also, this may be the fault of my tiredness, but in the first chapter I mistook to meanings of the letters "tear". I thought it was a water drop from her eye leaving a spot on the photo, rather than a rip in the photo.

We never get to SEE her caring for him. The closest we get is the kiss. That she was anything but bitter inside after her childhood has to be inferred more than seems ideal. Then again that might have made the story too long.

“Well, the (they) are… they are rather lovely, aren’t they?”
