All life must end one day, even if you're an element of harmony. Unless you've become an alicorn, a princess. And in that case, you have to see the lives of others go out slowly, while enduring immortality. Which is not easy, especially when you're the princess of friendship.
THIS IS A TRANSLATION OF A FRENCH WORK BY A FRENCH PERSON. I'm sorry if there's too many mistakes.
This fiction is a rewriting of two of my first one-shot (so, 2013 & 2014). The first chapter was my first MLP fiction ever, and one of my first real writing work. The sixth chapter was another one of my early one-shot.
Even though the style of it wasn't what I write anymore already at the time (doing sad for the sake of sad, meh), I still had an interest in trying to finish this concept, especialy for the last chapter. It took 5 years to complete and was finished in August 2018.
There are actually two translations in spanish for this story. This one and this one.

Rumor has it that Megan was there as well and hugged Twilight so that she can fill a little bit better as Rainbow Dash's death as she too gave her condolences to that blue pegasus.

Dang author your pulling my heart strings
Ahh my heart.

Glad you're experiencing the intended feelings ^^
11501249
Yeah. But dang it I think even the sons of Vulcan would cry at this.
11485537
Oh Luna, repressed feelings surfacing up.
11501249
By the way did you do this art or what?
11501828
The picture? No, normally there's a link to the original when you clic on it. If you're talking about the writing, yeah, done it myself ^^
11501841
Can you link it to the original cover art?
11502860
If you look at the source (hover your mouse above the picture) there's a link to derpibooru.
Here it is anyway : https://derpibooru.org/images/294728
And the original deviantart post was deleted, sadly
Everyone twenty one gun and canon salute
*raises sword* and fire!
Spike next isn’t he.

As Rarity used to say : NO SPOILERS
I knew it was spike, but looks like we see a decline in equestria to what we know as currently.
Dang it author why do you have to pull my heart strings.
Well thats not a happy ending
11521810
I rarely do pure happy endings. Most of the time I go for bitter sweet ones.
But this story, yeah, it's tragic. I might have new ideas for "and after?" that could be a bit happier. But the original tone of this one has always been despair and the inevitability of the end coming to all things. The burden of immortality, and so on. Nihilism, a bit.
Glad you stayed until the end ^^
11521815
Wait so there’s a sequel after this?
And did Luna, celestia and cadence set off a nuke on the moon.
Also you think twilight would invest in security for the tree since it’s the only thing protecting them from the forest taking over.
Like teacher like student
11521872
Not yet I'd say. I always had ideas of what could come after but never got around to write it.
11521886
Ah understandable but yet you think twilight would actually put security around the tree but apparently no.
That was... one of, if not the most tragic story I've ever read.
No sense of hope, or acceptance or anything else.
Just pure desolation.
I have no words.
Even still, I enjoyed this story. It was very different from the usual 'Twilight is Immortal' stories, so kudos for originality. The writing was top notch, the emotions were real, and I could feel the despair.
Excuse me while I go find a corner to sit in.

Thank you for reading it all. I'm glad that the feelings I intended touched you (which is a bit weird when I put it like that... "I want to make you feel despair")
There was hope. Twilight kept hope. But time took the better of it, and it was the point of the story.
Thanks again.
"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
