Description
My latest artwork involving my “Spike sacrifices himself” idea, and my first ever MLP drawing. I think I did pretty well, all things considering.
Ember: Spike? She runs up to her fallen predecessor. Tears start to form in her eyes Hey– Spike? Can you hear me? It’s Ember. Hey. We won, Spike– We won, Spike. We won. You did it, Dragon Lord. You did it. She kneels
Spike is unresponsive. Ember breaks down and hugs him.
Ember: I’m sorry– Spike–
Ember is gently led aside to grieve. Twilight Sparkle sits in front of the fading dragon.
Twilight Sparkle: Hey.
Spike is barely able to move his head, but manages to look Twilight in the eyes
Spike: quietly Hey, Twi…
Twilight rests her hoof on Spike’s hand and he grips it, the two smile at each other, Spike smiles with tears in his eyes
Spike: I’m sorry I won’t be there to see you rule Equestria
Twilight Sparkle: Spike. Look at me. She makes sure Spike gets a long look at her smiling face We’re gonna be okay. You can rest now.
With that acknowledgment, the light leaves Spike’s eyes and his grip on Twilight Sparkle’s hoof loosens, She can no longer contain her grief, holds his dead body close to her chest then starts crying, Spike, the Hero of the Crystal Empire, former Dragon Lord and No 1. Assistant has died. Everyone on the battlefield gathers and kneels in honour of Spike
