8183859 This was one of those chapters that required a few top-to-bottom rewrites to get it right. Every book has one of those, and this was one of them.
Ooooh, what an unexpected and pleasant surprise! A new chapter. It's sad that the amount of attention each sequel gets gets lesser by each one. Seriously, you get a couple dozen thousand views for the first one, a couple thousand for the second one, and not even 200 for this; I mean, what's up with that? Anyway...
...wait, what do you mean Silverspeak hasn't seen Celestia still in the last 25 years?... What?!... F*ck!! Motherf*cker! Ugh, man this is bullsh*t! I mean maybe a few years of circumstances would be sensible but not seeing her for all this time after everything?! Come on man! Oh! Oh, oh, geez, and knowing you and your tragic spins, you're probably going to hold this off as long as possible. I bet the possibility of them meeting in Canterlot is going to be brushed off due to some conflict or entry of antagonist or whatnot! You're probably going to hold it off until the inevitable tragedy happens and the mood of the final plunge is going to ruin the expectations of it! Yeah, how f*cking twee of you! Stretch it out to keep us at the edge of our seats! How original! Look, I know this is just a fanfic and that I shouldn't get so worked up over something so trivial, but I got invested into this character, okay?! You gave Silverspeak years of happy marriage with Beakbreaker, how could this be too much to give?!
Calm down Double R, it's just a fanfic, the world doesn't revolve around you... other notes, after reading the chapter, I'm guessing the headaches are a sign that Silverspeak's days with that horn are running out.
Also, oh boy, Beakbreaker wants a baby! I wondered if that would finallly make headway... wait... the inevitable tragedy... the large-scale conflict that is to come... oh sh*t, you're going to kill Beakbreaker, and leave Silverspeak a single father (or leave the child an orphan to be raised by the princesses) aren't you?... Uuuugggghhhhhh... First I had to come to terms with Project Horizons and its tendency to kill off beloved characters, and now this too? Look, I know that having the reading feel passionately about your characters is a sign of good writing (which you pull off well), but that doesn't mean you should take a sadistic pleasure in pulling our heartstrings by making your characters' lives miserable and fraught with tragedy (even with a 25-year break).
Regardless, I cannot wait for the next installment. Keep up the good work! And while I may rant, it's only because I love your story.

My artificial stomach uses magic to send nutrients to my neck and head, while any waste products get vented or incinerated, much like excess energy from my fuel cells.
After the events of the prior story, i cannot say i am excited for this. And honestly the continuation of this technology aspect i find hard to digest. Dunno.
Silverspeak doesn't have a cyber willy after all those years!? No Wonder considering using his tongue is his talent but this is ridiculous...
I Wonder if he is just going to get one and Beak is just going to synthetize a few liters of sperm to put in him for funzies...
Wonder who the mysterious stranger had been. We have a few contestants from families of ponies Speak rook down. I personally think it's the mysterious stranger from Fallout but shh...
Ever eager to research some new project, Medicomp installed a state-of-the-art lab aboard the Eagle. It’s smaller than most, but still packed with advanced equipment and technicians, who are hard at work as the three of us enter. Spotting me, they eagerly indicate for me to lie on an examination table.
I'd really like to see either Beakbreaker join Silverspeak as a cyborg, or Silverspeak get an upgrade. If that did happen, it would put at least one of them through the wringer, and may do both.
Well, to be honest I too would be very angry with Silverspeak. Considering he chose to betray his country for the very unlikely chance that his love would not die.
A hoof with a magnet installed in it? I'm sure that won't be a Chekhov's gun that'll come in handy later down the line
>Silverspeak still hasn't met Celestia
Honestly, I'm guessing the narrative of the previous two stories and this being the last in a trilogy means that Silverspeak will only finally meet Celestia at the very end of this story. Still, I'm hopefully optimistic he'll actually meet her in Canterlot this time. Because if not...
Oh cool, I guess my comment from the previous story about the possibility of Beakbreaker using Silverspeak's DNA from his remaining organic material on his head to cultivate material for in vitro came true. Buuuut, since that's happening, it feels a little disconcerting that they've been married 25 years. Even assuming they married young and she's only 45, and I think she's older, that's still an age where most women aren't fertile at all anymore. But, eh, anthropomorphic ponies and zebras, so different lifespans. That, and it's Beakbreaker. I'm sure she has the medical knowhow if that was an issue.
Silverspeak's issue with headaches? Could be something sinister. I'm more inclined to believe either that his brain is rejecting his implants, or that he's simply getting old and it's affecting the one actually organic part of him left.

This is the end
Have patience and count to ten
Feel Equestria move and then
Hear my peace fail again
For this is the end
I've drowned and dreamt this moment
So overdue I owe them
Swept away, I'm stolen
Let the sun fall
When it burns out
We will stand tall
Face it all together
Let the sun fall
When it burns out
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At sunfall
That sunfall
sunfall is where we start
A thousand lies and truths apart
Where ideal's collide and days are damned
You may have my number, you can take my body
But you'll never have my soul
Let the sun fall (let the sun fall)
When it burns out (when it burns out)
We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
Face it all together
Let the sun fall (let the sun fall)
When it burns out (when it burns out)
We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
Face it all together
At sunfall
[x2:]
(Let the sun fall
When it burns out
We will stand tall)
Where you go I go
What you see I see
I know I'd never be me
Without the security
Of your loving hooves
Keeping me from insanity
Put your hoof on my hoof
And we'll stand
Let the sun fall (let the sun fall)
When it burns out (when it burns out)
We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
Face it all together
Let the sun fall (let the sun fall)
When it burns out (when it burns out)
We will stand tall (we will stand tall)
Face it all together
At sunfall
Let the sun fall
We will stand tall
At sunfall
Oh-s...
CYBORG FARTS!!!!
Had fun editing this chapter bro!
After the events of the prior story, i cannot say i am excited for this. And honestly the continuation of this technology aspect i find hard to digest. Dunno.
I wish ya good luck with it though.
Huh...well, I hadn't expected another part to this series, but I'll keep track of this one too.
Whew, Beabbreaker scared me twice in this chapter;
1. I thought she was dying.
2. I thought she was going to divorce him.
... But it's not going to be all gold and green forests for Silver, is there?

Good choice on the music there! I've updated the chapter to feature it.
I'd really like to see either Beakbreaker join Silverspeak as a cyborg, or Silverspeak get an upgrade. If that did happen, it would put at least one of them through the wringer, and may do both.
Okay. I'm now waiting for the hammer to drop.
Well, to be honest I too would be very angry with Silverspeak. Considering he chose to betray his country for the very unlikely chance that his love would not die.

Actually, both Beakbreaker and Silverspeak are 50 here.
