#LINE ART OF ILLUSION MLP SERIES#
And considering she was allegedly "very involved" with the creation of Cadence, but was herself surprised when she heard about the new pony becoming an alicorn, I'd say they're probably superseding the rules she laid out for the series at this point. And I hate to fall back on Word of Faust again, since she isn't even in charge of the show anymore, but she previously said that Celestia and Luna were the only alicorns. I just mean to say that no matter what the circumstances, alicorns are clearly pretty uncommon and special, and to introduce a new one to the series must be done with extreme care. Reply Deleteĭerpy Hands Februat 3:32 wloff I actually subscribe to that second theory myself (that a powerful pony may become an alicorn, and Celestia is actually grooming Twilight to replace her).Īnyway, I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes here (or hooves, if that's your thing). Plus, a "demi-god" isn't a god, it's just a being so powerful that some may refer to it as such. or magic-proof in that universe, I guess), we already know that they're incredibly long-lived, and very powerful. But even if they're not (and really, a politician living that long has to be bullet-proof. But that aside, they may NOT be immortal.
Well, I believe Faust also said that Celestia can't really stand having guards or something like that, meaning she may not even need them.
Just look how many real world phrases with the word "God" in them have been replaced with "Celestia" on the show, such as "With Celestia as my witness."Īs far as the princesses having guards. Plus, it's been explicitly stated on the show that she is exceptionally powerful, and even Twilight Sparkle, who may be interpreted as the living embodiment of the Element of Magic (since the Element was shaped like her cutie mark even 1000 years ago, when all the other Elements were shaped differently), fears her wrath.įinally, as for them not being treated as religious deities in Equestria. BUT, it was implied that it took the entire unicorn race to do this, whereas Celestia has been doing it by herself for centuries. Now, of course, we already know that Celestia and Luna are each at least 1000 years old.Īs for the point about unicorns raising the celestial bodies, that is true. To top it all off, Word of Faust (or was it Thiessen? I don't remember, but it was one of them) says that ponies have slightly longer lifespans than real horses, at about 50 years. Furthermore, in the flashback, Granny Smith was young, but Celestia still looked exactly the same. or presumably ponies, tend to not pass on a family business until they are very, very old and incapable of continuing to work). This doesn't mean that he's dead, but we do see that her father now runs the business, implying that her elders have at least aged to the point of having to pass on the business (and extremely wealthy people. For one, Granny Smith herself pretty much established that most ponies likely do not live as long as she does, by saying that she originally did business with Diamond Tiara's great-grandfather. I think the Granny Smith example works against you there. Reply Deleteĭerpy Hands Februat 2:29 Annoying Wloff Unless you have proof otherwise, we are done here. Also, they aren't revered as such because of buildings or the like so that further supports my suspicions. The fact that they require active guards at almost all times means they are not immortal, and not demi-gods. They could be respected as royalty just because of those two facts.
They have not used anything else besides that making me believe that they have a very specilised magic and that because they can raise and lower the sun and moon easily, it brought them fame among the unicorns and their wisdom from being so old brought them respect from the other races. The ONLY magic they have used is the magic of raising and lowering their respective celestial objects and using magical tools such as a door or the Elements of Harmony. It has also NOT been established that they are immortal or have very strong magic. Annoying Conservative Februat 1:53 KaijyuuIt has been established that unicorns can raise and lower the sun.
