Just got old, felt she was at the end of her days.

Today was a day she had marked on her calendar more than a decade earlier, when she was younger and in better health.

So, she’s been planning this sunset she was younger?

She wasn’t sure, they were too minute from this altitude to clearly identify.

Too far?

She felt her mane and tail whipping wildly behind her as she remained sedate. Gold and grey intermingled but did not blend, the chilled air produced tiny bits of ice on her coat, but she paid this no mind. It was too wonderful to move so high, she dared not interfere. She had waited too long for this.

I think intermingled and blend are the same thing.

Stunning. :fluttercry:

I was expecting her to be falling and this was her life flashing. Instead I am treated to her taking her life in her own hands on her own terms. Her last moments as she takes her life in one last time and faces the end with serenity.

She's been planning this flight since she was a young adult, at the least.

Yes, too far away.

Maybe. I'll look 'em up.

Intermingling means freely associating, almost as one
While blending means mixing smoothly and inseparably together.

My intention was to indicate that while the mane was blown wildly around, the colors didn't combine into another color, but remained distinct from each other.

So, what happened? Did she freeze to death or something?

That seems weird. If it's only been 17 years or so since the events of Season 1, it's maybe 27-30 years since the rainboom. Unless she was already middle-aged then, Cherry just shouldn't be old enough for euthanasia yet.

17 years or so since the events of Season 9, actually. Is what I was thinking.

Didn't you say it was 12 years since the castle popped out of the ground?

This story deserves some more views.

You know how the universe is a hologram and reality an illusion? Good cause you got reviewed!

What did you do? No, seriously, what did you do?! This bittersweet story is now pulling at my heartstrings so hard that I'm going to have to give you a follow.

Thank you, it's nice to hear things like that. Some day, I'll write again.
