I'm sure this has already been asked at some point or another so sorry for bringing this up, but I was wondering something about Twilight - she's not immortal, right? And neither are Cadence and Flurry? Or is Flurry immortal because she was born an alicorn? And how did Cadence become an alicorn and why is she Celestia's niece? I also don't undestand - If Equestria has never before seen the birth of an alicorn, then how did Celestia/Luna come into existence and why are they immortal while the others aren't? If someone could explain these things about alicorns, I'd be very grateful. Thanks.
