Starswirl created magic that bent the wills of the sun, the moon, and even time itself, but when the fate of the land was on the line, he had failed. Equestria's last mighty hero has fallen.

Like everypony before him, he lies in waiting for the Plague to take him. Quietly, he begins chanting his secret, unfinished masterpiece, even though he knows it will not help.
