    Zoat does Hephaestus have any children, aside from the one with Athena, in your story?

    Was reading some of the myths and I saw that he was married to Aglaea and had several daughters with her.

    Does Eris have children like in the myths, like Neikea, Algae, Ate, Makhai etc.?

    It's silly rather than pervy.

    Plus the fact that Spike was teen dragon-sized. A fully mature dragon is fuckoff huge. Remember Torch? His head was the size of a house.

    That would depend which Eris she is. The "Hera's daughter" one isn't known for having a dozen of horrible children. The "daughter of Primordial Night" one does.

    Actually that's twilight in her forties or fifties, since her friends are still alive and only have mild graying of their hair.

    Is not impossible for Twilight to grow in power that fast, considering Cadance was taller than her as an alicorn while only having like two decades at most over Twilight age.

    Just wondering with all these seperate different story snippets, are there a place where their collected and sorted or do you just have to go looking through all tge threads yourself.

    This... Must be how Chojin Patriarch feels looking at my posts.

    I have a word document for each episode on my computer at home, and a back up on a data stick. But I usually locate things I half-remember using Google advanced search on the story only thread.

    Celestia looked exactly the same now that she did when she banished Luna a 1000 ago and she wasn’t really older then Luna, it doesn’t look like all alicorn age up the same way, if you think Celestia appearance is how alicorne look when they are past 1000 years old then it would mean that at the very least Celestia is 2000 years old, (so Sunset would just have burned half her lifespan) furthermore Celestia and Luna aren’t dead in the future but decided to retire also it wouldn’t be a real problem with all the way to extend one lifespan in Dc Comics.

    Kind of already stated, but Twilight wasn't 1000 years old in that episode. It was only however long it took characters that were children in the rest of the series to reach adulthood.

    I think the Mane 6 were all in their 30s or something, and any signs of aging were just exaggerations on the animators' part. "See! They're older now!"

    The flashbacks in the episode were only about the events surrounding Twilight's coronation.

    So, tricky question, what would Sunset say if a filly asked if they could roast marshmallows using her aura? :)

    Starlight already is a Princess in an alternate timeline and is apparently gathering and uplifting an army of herselves to alicornhood to combat some threat...or..possibly just to troll Twilight.


    I don't care if it's not canon. ForgaLorga is awesome.

    I haven't heard it stated in any canon source that alicorns are Immortal/Ageless or Mortal either way. So its up to authorial interpretation. Personally I lean toward the Immortal/Ageless side myself. Seems more interesting that way.

    Now it could theoretically be a good bit of time into the future as we don't know pony lifespans really. And it was said Granny Smith was their at the founding of Ponyville which was according to winter wrap up hundreds of years ago. So...eh?

    Also....how do ponies measure time? I remember this snippet from Alicornundrum

    The next stop was the great clock. It was a gigantic thing, a massive clockwork of glass and gilding and gears the size of a two-story building, that sat in the middle of the palace right where everypony passed by on their work day. Nyx had found the doorway into the inner workings on her first day and had marveled at the massive cogs and levers and gears working away, measuring out the day.. That stop off was a little disappointing; the enormous clockwork was being dismantled and maintenanced, and workponies were climbing in and out, hauling parts and shouting at one another, so there wasn't even a chance to sneak inside and look around. "No worries, though," the forepony said to the children cheerfully. "We'll have her back together in just a few hours and running the castle schedule right as rain."

    Gossamer hovered in front of the stilled clock face. She had the look of somepony thinking very, very hard. One could almost see the smoke rolling out of her ears. "How do you know?" she finally said.
    The forepony looked up at her. "Pardon?"


    "How do you know that it'll be right?" she said. "The right time, I mean?"

    The forepony scratched his mane under his hard hat. "I don't follow," he said, confused.

    Gossamer fluttered down to hover in front of his face. "Okay, you said everypony in the castle sets their clocks by this one, right?" she said. "So how do you set this one?"

    The forepony grinned, back on familiar ground. "We use the sun dial out in the courtyard, little lady," he said.

    "But that's the thing," Gossamer said. "The sun comes up whenever Princess Celestia says it does! It reaches high noon whenever she says it does, too! She could sleep in late one day or something..."
    "No, no, she gets up at the crack of dawn--" Nyx started to say. Then her brow furrowed. "Wait a minute...."


    "Yeah, but dawn only cracks when she says it does," Killdeer pointed out. He looked at Adder and grinned. "Dude. That would be awesome. We could sleep in as long as we want!"

    "Oh, she'd never do that," the forepony protested. "Princess Celestia is much too devoted to her duty to do that. Besides, her steward sets her alarm clock every day."

    "And he sets it by what, again?" Gossamer said, pointing at the enormous, inert clock behind them. Brows furrowed, eyes went wide as realization set in. "Uh huh, you see? You see? Nopony knows what time it is! Nopony!" Gossamer threw her tiny forehooves wide. "It could be yesterday, or tomorrow, or tea time last Tuesday, right now, and nopony would ever know it!"

    Nyx looked at Doubloon. "I think I wanna stop thinking about this," she said. Doubloon nodded. Fervent agreement went up from all the children. "Excuse us, Mister, we're gonna go... um... someplace else," Nyx said to the forepony. "Thank you for talking with us..." They all hastily trundled off, leaving the forepony there to dwell on his growing existential horror.

    I’ve assumed that Alicorn can transform / shapeshift at will. As shown by them having evil super-Saiyan modes. Explains why Luna can be small. Just because Twilight was tall in that pic, it doesn’t mean she was old.

    I may have missed it if you've started calling the Renegade Grayven for the sake of convenience, unless this is a crucial hint to how the confrontation with actual Grayven-16 will go.

    So, how did they even manage to do the ritual while using the magic system from another universe considering that it's MLP canon that magc doesnt work the same in the human world?
