RAOn my previous pony post, we introduced the young alicorns of Equestria. Prince Sonder, Prince Oberon, and Princess “Mira” Flurry Heart.
In today’s glimpse of palace life, we find Equestrian royalty discussing Sonder’s social life. Joining us is Princess Twilight Sparkle and her three heirs; Atlas, Vi, and Eliza.
💫 In Equestria, alicorns had a special link to the domain that they were destined to rule. However, this link can be severed in the absence of control. Many years into her reign, Princess Twilight discovered that stars had stopped moving, with the sun and moon sure to follow. This was the consequence of Celestia and Luna retiring. The royal sisters had children, but neither inherited their mother’s image ability to move celestial bodies. Sonder’s magic was tied to shadows and Oberon’s to dreams. The only way to restore balance was creating new bodies to wield the royal sisters’ magic, for a pony had to be born with this power to properly control it.
🌗 Thus, with the blessing of her mentors and Equestria’s other rulers, Princess Twilight cast a powerful spell on the only artifact capable of embodying the royal sisters’ magic. The Elements of Harmony. After this spell was cast, the six elements were rebuilt as living ponies, new souls that were scattered across the land with different pieces of this magic. Only two of the elements manifested directly in the castle upon creation; Prince Violet Moon and Prince Atlas Sun, named after the celestial bodies they’d inherit. Twilight would take the two colts and raise them as her own. Many years later, she would also adopt a young Princess Eliza Magpie, the third element and embodiment of ancient crystal magic. Twilight suspects the royal sisters got this from Princess Amore, the Crystal Empire’s first ruler.
🔮 When will the rest of the elements be found? Why does Twilight fear that the royal sisters’ history will be repeated by her own sons? Only time will tell…
Thank you @zac_an1 for bringing this animation to life! He worked with me for MONTHS to incorporate all my notes, it turned out amazing :>
