MLP Fanfic Reading: The Motion of the Stars, Part 2
https://www.fimfiction.net/story/240152/the-motion-of-the-stars
Spoilers below.
There are a few things I forgot about when I was recording the outro. Firstly the bandits made a mistake in explaining their plans in front of Sweetie. If they hadn't said they would kill Rarity, that might have lessened her resolve. After all, they wanted her alive, and that's hard to do if you straight up tell your victim that surrendering leads to a horrible fate and the death of your loved one.
Like I said, bandits are dumb.
Secondly, Rarity makes comments about joining her friends in death, but if the spell's lore is accurate, she never will. Her eternal end is stuck driving the heavens, neither Elysium nor Asphodel, nor any other part of the usual end.
(I'm using the Greek afterlife since they already borrow pieces of it, but regardless of which system they use she's separated for eternity.)
