    I suppose there's worse worlds to go to, and be transformed to fit... Like, Power Ring World, where humans are unintelligent unless they're wearing one of the (large population) of many-coloured power rings... If you go there, I'd guess you become a power ring, puppeting a human body...

    (Disclaimer: Power Ring World invented (as far as I know) for the purpose of this post. :) )

    ((Further Disclaimer: DC Writers have done some really weird stuff over the years, so I might be remembering...))

    (((I guess I'd better forget ideas of power ring reproduction, and human ranches, and rustling...)))

    Good thing is they cannot hit him with the Elements Of Harmony without Twilight Sparkle.

    Bad news, he might end fighting Celestia and Luna and his powers do feel evil.

    Wait, don't we know that Paulragon goes to Wilson and handles the return of Nightmare Moon? Was that actual future vision or just an illusionary segment?

    Any chance Mother Box detects Agent Orange spending three days on the moon while Grayven is visiting Canterlot?

    And I assume the guards were actual guards, not kids in costumes.

    I'm sure this is obvious to most people, or, I've missing something in the story, but...

    Is Grayven going to Pony Land on the First of April relevant in some way?

    Just checking...

    It's exactly a year after Sunset appeared. And it's a bit of an odd one.

    Oh, and there was that time Fizzletop Berrytwist look out Celestia, Luna and Cadance.

    As I see it, there are two possibilities: either Celestia is powerful but not superpowerful and she's doing the best she can with the resources at her disposal, or she's superpowerful and an incompetent.

    For example, even after Chrysalis attacks and conquers Canterlot, Equestria fails to develop any sort of changeling detection spell or ability. Pre-reformation Thorax was just walking around and they had no clue how to find him. The Bearers were replaced and only Starlight spotted it. If Celestia has an amulet which allows her to use changeling magic then she had plenty of time to work on a counter and to teach other ponies. If she didn't, then either she doesn't have the amulet... Or she made a really stupid decision and just left it in the loft for however long.

    Whenever I see a fanfiction where Celestia complains about the Canterlot ruling class, I find myself thinking: you had a thousand years as an autocrat. If you don't like how the country looks, then the problem is you.

    We're on an internet forum. As such, a Flamer is always an option.

    Fifty? :p
    Or she's powerful but not superpowerful, but she's not doing the best she could with the resources at her disposal. Incompetence is more of a spectrum than an absolute.

    Or she’s very aware of how the ponies she rules generally think and behave and since she can’t drink too much she just screams into the pillows every night.

    I am kinda surprised that Motherbox wasn't transformed into a pony, she is a living being after all.

    She is an enchanted sentient artifact, she may have sentience and a spiritual presence, but she doesn't qualify as actually being alive.

    Shrug she was able to lead a nation for over a thousand years in at least moderate prosperity. Don't think she is incompetent frankly given what we have seen of her at the Gala's she might just be so mind numbingly bored out of her skull that she craves an escape. Might explain why she pushed Twilight to take over so fast. She is sick of being ruler she see her escape from her responsibilities in Twilight especially post ascension which is why she is willing to take more dangerous if faster methods probably against what she knows is her better judgement.

    Just speculation at this point.

    Bug Queen is pretty scary.

    Chrysalis overpowers Celestia, which surprises even herself. Later on, in a surgical strike, Chrysalis manages to defeat and capture the Elements and all the Princesses.

    One of the craziest things was that her throne generated an anti-magic field with a huge area of effect. An anti-magic field that no-selled any and all magic that wasn't Changeling magic. Not even Discord's magic could overcome it.

    It got destroyed by a shitty deus ex machina that cursed us with skittle bugs, but then we later find out the pieces of her shattered throne still have that anti-magic effect. The area they cover is smaller, sure, but imagine if they'd known that was an option and just, like, crafted weapons and armor out of it.

    And later still? The only reason the villains lost in the finale is because Chrysalis is a gloater. The other villains just wanted to kill the heroines and be done with it, but she wanted to brag and watch them suffer.

    What I'm trying to say is . . . Who cares about Celestia and Equestria? Grayven should recruit the Queen when he's done blasting the Anti-Life with the Elements.

    Hmm, okay you win this round.

    Probably one in German. They have a word for just about everything.

    They can't use the elements anyhow. If Twilight is still living in Canterlot, then she hasn't met the other five bearers yet, Luna is still banished, Discord is still stone, and pretty much everything we saw in the show aside from the rainboom hasn't happened yet.

    That reminds me, there's a Forever People story in which the Forever People's motherbox got destroyed.

    She reincarnated as Beautiful Dreamer's child, Maya.

    Now I'm picturing Fatherbox coming back to claim vengeance on Gravy....
