.... why do I think this may be more canon in some way? Like... People say that’s Sakuya could die in the future because she’s a human, but why if it wasn’t like that, and maybe almost all the members of the mansion could have died before her, leaving her alone? (Alone, with some “useless” fairy maids of course)... as well, this also mentions that Marisa died and that’s Reimu’s got a grand daughter (just like in The end of the maiden's illusion) ), making it like, the author also got inspiration to make this like- semi-canon or the author of Maiden's Illusion got inspired to make it canon with it...?

Author's idea may base on canon information about Sakuya but modified in extremely way. It mention in PMiSS, Sakuya possible live for hundred years but still appear as young woman and may related with her time manipulation that it possible to imply Sakuya can stop or slow her age.

I am crying a river now. Having Osana Reimu's OST playing in the background did not help

As heart-breaking and tragic it is, this is the best "Tragedy of Long Life" I've ever read.

Remember the first rule of storytelling, folks; any rule can be broken if it makes for a good story.

In lighter news: Flan in Chucks and striped socks like she's Avril Lavigne works surprisingly well.

As far as I understand it, Flandre probably used her power on herself to make sure it was permanent. And so much time has passed that even Remilia's vampiric 'immortality' ran out.

Notice that in Flan's last few panels she looks more adult (or at least taller) compared to the start of the comic.

The epitome of a clock:

It repeats itself everyday with no end nor beginning. It is something which my culture calls "The Devil's Circle". Basically, its an unending circle where there is no end nor beginning in a circle shape.

Is that Marisa in the grave next to Patchouli's?

The stone says "Kirisame," so it must be.

The only question then is who went first.

That means Flandre can't kill herself, and the Luna Dial can go bonkers on Remilia, and she still won't age/die of old age.

I'm pretty sure slashing one's throat will do the trick on a vampire.

Also, it seems like the Luna Dial drains life itself, which, vampire or not, seems to shorten their time regardless.

As far as I understand it, Flandre probably used her power on herself to make sure it was permanent. And so much time has passed that even Remilia's vampiric 'immortality' ran out. From this artist's understanding, I guess Remilia had 'effective immortality' while Sakuya had 'true immortality'. And while, to us, Remilia is more or less immortal, to a 'true immortal' like Sakuya, she'd age away and die all the same as everyone else. We might be a drop in the bucket compared to Remilia, but she's a bucket compared to Sakuya's ocean. Or something like that.

Erm... read the story. Flandre kills herself to be with Meiling and Remilia was artificially aged due to Sakuya's Luna Dial.

Also, there's theories that Sakuya is Lunarian (where you can die, but not by natural methods) or the Luna Dial keeps her young.

From dictionary.com:
Immortal, adjective:
1: not mortal; not liable or subject to death; undying: our immortal souls.
2: remembered or celebrated through all time: the immortal words of Lincoln.
3: not liable to perish or decay; imperishable; everlasting.
4: perpetual; lasting; constant: an immortal enemy.

ageless, adjective
1: not aging or appearing to age.
2: lasting forever; eternal; undying: the ageless beauty of Greek sculpture.

That means Flandre can't kill herself, and the Luna Dial can go bonkers on Remilia, and she still won't age/die of old age.

This was really amazing. There's nothing else I can say. An original dark twist, a very touhou-like tragedy.

I don't know who's worse off: Sakuya, for not aging a single day and watching her friends die, or Mokou, for not aging her single day and watching her friends die, without even the possibility of killing herself to see them on the other side.

Nice to see something else. Even though it's just the other way around.
