An era of peace was brought to Equestria. Creatures from the whole world now reside within the kingdom's borders.
But as a new era came, its heroes and legends are destined to succumb to time.
One unique creature living in the diverse town of Ponyville despised this destiny. A draconequus, an immortal being of pure chaotic magic.
Never accounted for death to be a part of his endless lifetime. And when it did, confusion swirled his mind into an endless abyss of misery. But as time moved on, a part of him began to heal and decided to visit her grave one last time.

I really like this one, you managed to pull at the heartstrings in a way that felt sincere and and grounded. I do admit that I am not especially partial to the idea of committing suicide over the death of a loved one and I think that this particular plot point, which has been welcomed in earnest by writers ever since the finale and even before never sat right with me. That being said, you did a very good job with it. I found this genuinely touching, and despite everything I could kind of see it, disagreements aside. The pacing was perfect, I never felt you were going any faster or slower than you needed to, the style was clean and precise, and the conclusion was a well earned tragedy, specially for Twilight, for whom the future looks particularly grim, IMO. Either way, I really liked this one, you should be proud of yourself.
Funnily enough seeing the title of this story inspired the one I just recently submitted, but I haven't read the actual fic until just now. It's amusing how there is a bit of an overlap despite these circumstances.
But putting that to the side, there is a lot I really-really like about this story. The way Discord doesn't understand death and considers it a nuisance at best is great. His growth as a person as he goes from ignorant, to understanding, to deeply worried knowing it will happen to everyone around him was very well conveyed.
Personally I kind of dislike the idea that Celestia and Luna would eventually choose to die, but I understand why it was necessary for the story. And any annoyance this may have given, the ending more than made up for it. Easy upvote, I hope many will appreciate the story.
Amazing story. I loved it.... and I didn't need my heart any ways.
This was a very good one-shot.
Reminds me of a similar story
