…Celestia spotted a number of ponies garbed in black and all carrying blue lamps, all walking slowly along a stone pathway leading to a secluded mausoleum. Near the front of the formation was a large ornate coffin, levitated with magic, accompanied on all sides by royal guards. At the front was Magnus, whose expression was equally dark and sullen. His image was of a stallion who had given up, the life gone from his once brightened eyes.

A re-creation of an old art piece titled Rent by Sorrow, showing the Aurum and Solar Emperor Magnus leading a eulogy for his queen, lost in battle.
