Here you go Wild 19. https://www.fimfiction.net/story/454388/luster-dawn-friendship-successor

I made this as a midquel to my story Passing On Together. Unlike most fanfic writers I've chosen to honor Megan McCarthy's statement that Twilight will not outlive her friends. This midquel is still far from complete but the one where she gives up the power of the sun and moon she got from Celestia and Luna (at least that's what Miller said they did when they fused the crowns, and I made that the source of their immortality for my headcanon).

It wouldn't make sense in my mind if alicorns are immortal or going to live for thousands of years for Cadence to retire. Unless its just a break for a while since Shining Armor is getting old and she wants to spend as much time with him as possible. But if my theory about the sun and moon power being the real source of longevity for Celestia and Luna is correct than Cadence would be aging normally. Hope you like it!
