Letter to the Princess (Epilogue)

I slowly put the last letter down and was quickly lost in thought. I could not help but feel like I was invading Twilight's privacy by reading the letters despite the fact that she had asked me to. Her last request was for them to be sent to the princess, as Celestia should know what to do with them. I had no clue what the princess would do with these notes to a long dead pony, but I decided to simply fulfill the request. I retrieved some parchment and began to write a letter of my own.


Dearest Princess,

I deeply regret to inform you that your student and apprentice, Twilight Sparkle, has passed away from a brain hemorrhage. As you are well aware, not much is known about the relation of a unicorn's magic and their mental well being; while the cause of death was the hemorrhage, the cause of the hemorrhage is unkown. With your permission, as well as the deceased's parents, we would like to take a few samples from her body in order to further research in this field. The more we know the more lives we can save.

As per the request of the deceased, I have enclosed 26 letters which she claimed you had a purpose for. I would also like you to know that Twilight passed away with a warm smile, the kind you'd give an old friend. Despite her mental state, she died both peacefully and happily.

If you have any concerns, don't hesitate to contact me.

My Condolences,

Ponyville Chief of Medicine

Author's Note:

It is done. If you expected a miraculous or mystical ending, my apologies. This is how this story of two lovers really should end: death. Once they were in love, they were in love to the end.

Geez that was melodramatic, but hey, it's more or less my feelings on the project. Thank you ver much for reading.

-Tavi

"Hemorrhage."

I don't like stories without happy end
But this one truely deserves a place within my favorites.
