| 1 | * Falcon Punch's death. Ceymi (as Thermal Soar) shoots at (and misses) him twice before Falcon realizes that his charge is actually his enemy. He is then mortally wounded, gets to see Ceymi's true form (and hear her [[ApologeticAttacker apology]] for having to kill him) and then released to plummet over a mile toward the Everfree Forest. His last despairing thought is of his [[OneTrueLove wife]] [[ProneToTears Strawberry]], whom he knows will be lost without her. He never has even a clue why he is being killed. |
| 2 | * Thermal Soar's death - and Ceymi's reaction to that death. Chrysalis [[CruelAndUnusualDeath cruelly]] slays him right before Princess Ceymi's eyes, simply to test her loyalty. At least Thermal Soar only suffers for a moment; Ceymi has to live the rest of her life with the memory of her favorite Pony -- whom she can't fully admit to herself was also her OneTrueLove -- being literally destroyed in front of her. What's worse, the lesson she learns from this is ''not'' that she can't trust Chrysalis -- she's too loyal to even think that -- instead she learns never to get too emotionally-attached to her prey. |
