There are many things one of advanced years wishes for: Peace and quiet, family, and especially to enjoy the successes of one's life being just a few examples.

Unfortunately for Mirage, it seems he will be forfeit of all of these. With the death of his wife, and a untimely and emotional flight to Equestria, he will have to start from the ground up once again as he plants himself in a new country, city and culture. Landing in the mountain city of Canterlot, he prepares to spend the remainder of his days like his younger ones: working to the brink of exhaustion to survive as he tries to forget his past.

After a run in with our favorite grey colored Pegasus, it seems any plans he has are going to go a bit haywire.

This story (if it continues like I planned) will start much earlier than the main episodes cover but will continue onwards. I don't plan on making this an AU but I'm also not very well versed in the lore.

*NOTE: this is my first MLP fanfiction. I've written previous fictions on FanFiction.net but alas, this is my first foray here. Comments, wisecracks and ideas are appreciated. I also do not promise any regular updates to this or any story I make. I'm also not a master of the French language, so any mistakes are left to my poor understanding and Google Translate.
