@Smv18,

No-one ever asked her opinion on ascending. It's as simple as that. She got what was decided for her destiny, fate, Magic or whatever it was that gave her this 'gflt'.

FWIW, there is increasing evidence to suggest that ponies are much longer-lived than humans, perhaps by an order of two or three multiples (Granny Smith claims to have been around at the founding of Ponyville several centuries back; Doctor Whooves spent 'centuries' researching the science of time-travel). So, the assumption that Celestia and Luna are immortal based on the fact Celestia is more than a millennium old may be founded on a massively flawed misunderstanding of the underlying framework of the MLP universe.
