  1. Hey, I just woke up this morning from a really weird dream, it was about being in an apocalypse with zombies that were all cartoon-like in appearance. Honestly I couldn't really care that much about that part of the dream because there was something much stranger about it, in my dream I had wings, I couldn't fly but if I flapped them really hard when I jumped I could lift myself just a little bit higher. I know that sounds pretty ordinary to most of you but I haven't gotten to the strange part, I could feel them, just as well as I can feel my arms when I am awake, I could move them and I could feel them move and everything just as if they were real. I can still feel them a little bit right now actually, like people do with ghost limbs if a limb gets cut off they can still feel it. But what I don't get is that I could feel something in a dream that I have never experienced in real life, my wings felt like real wings and now I miss them...
  2. The following is a history of equestria following major events from the founding of Equestria to the present. After Equestria was founded there was a time of peace, for the first time Earth Ponies, Pegasus Ponies and Unicorns truly lived in harmony. Shortly after the peace was established the great city of Canterlot began construction, it was to be a city for all three pony races, a symbol of the harmony that had finally been achieved. While the city was under construction a pair of ponies were born who were unlike any others, these ponies possessed unicorn horns and Pegasus wings and held powers beyond those of any other pony, even as fillies they were able to perform magic far beyond the ability of other unicorns. The sisters quickly became famous and well known to all the citizens of Equestria and it wasn't long before they were revealed to have the ability to raise the sun and the moon single handed, a feat that would normally require the power of all the unicorns in Equestria. The sisters were declared as symbols of the new harmony between the three pony races and a castle was built in the new city of Canterlot, the sisters were named Celestia and Luna for their abilities to raise the sun and the moon respectively. When the sisters were still young a creature of great power appeared calling himself Discord, this being, a Draconiquus spread chaos throughout all of Equestria and seemed far too powerful to be stopped. When all seemed lost, the two sisters Celestia and Luna brought all of the ponies in Equestria together, in spite of the chaos that Discord was creating. When the ponies came together, brought by the call of the sisters that symbolized they're harmony, a great burst of magic came from not only the unicorns but from all of the ponies and the Elements of Harmony were created. Taking the chance to defeat Discord the sisters wielded the Elements, using their power to vanquish Discord, turning him to stone. In gratitude for saving all of Equestria, the sisters were declared princesses and would come to rule the land when they came of adult age. Many years later when the sisters had grown to adult age and were ruling all of Equestria a black fog began to spread across the land, corrupting it with hatred and evil. Investigating this strange occurrence a Kingdom of Crystal ponies were discovered, however the kingdom was corrupted and held by a dark and evil unicorn called King Sombra. King Sombra had enslaved the Crystal Ponies and his evil was spreading across all of Equestria, combining their magic, Luna and Celestia were able of overcome Sombra whose power was greatly bolstered by the kingdom he ruled, Sombra was destroyed, however he survived as a shadow of hatred and greed and used what magic he had left to make the Crystal Kingdom vanish. The shadow of Sombra was banished to the ice and sealed away by Celestia and Luna, and Equestria returned to peace once more, but as time went on the younger sister grew restless and unhappy, after the hatred of King Sombra had darkened their land, many ponies now feared the dark and therefore no longer enjoyed but rather feared the night that Luna created. One night Luna, driven by her jealousy and sorrow, refused to lower the moon and declared the the night would stay until all pony learned to love and appreciate it as they once had. Celestia pleaded with her sister, asking her to lower the moon and return home, but Luna had closed her heart and so Celestia was forced to use the Elements of Harmony once more to banish her sister to the moon. With her sister in the moon, Celestia could use Luna's power to lower and raise the moon and her own to lower and raise the sun, however Celestia longed only for her sister to return to her. However the harmony between the sisters was broken and they she could no longer control the Elements and so she cast a spell that would allow her sister to escape her captivity in 1000 years so that she could search for another with the magical ability and kindness to control the Elements and hopefully return her sister to her. Over 900 years later a new Winged Unicorn was born and named Cadence, upon hearing of this pony's ability to spread love and happiness to those around her, Celestia believed that it could be possible that this was the pony who could control the Elements and protect Equestria. Celestia took Cadence under her wing, teaching her how to control her magic, when the day came that Cadence earned her Cutie Mark, a Crystal Heart. Upon seeing the Crystal Heart, Celestia was reminded of the Crystal Kingdom and the Crystal Heart that was meant to protect their Kingdom, in that moment Celestia realized that Cadence was not destined to control the Elements and return her sister to her but rather that she was destined to rule the Crystal Kingdom, she declared Cadence a princess and continued her search. A few years later, Celestia discovered a young filly by the name of Twilight Sparkle who, while not a Winged Unicorn displayed raw power far beyond that of any ordinary unicorn she had encountered in her long life. Celestia hoped that this unicorn would be the one who could control the Elements and so she took the young filly under her wing and taught her how to control her magic in the hopes that she would be able to return her sister to her and protect Equestria. The rest of the story we already know. The End (This is merely my own idea of Equestria's history) Bonus Theory: Alicorns (Winged Unicorns) My theory about Alicorns is simple, Alicorns are born when they are needed for something important such as Luna and Celestia to raise the Sun and Moon and Cadence to rule and protect the Crystal Kingdom. However, Alicorns can only be born when there is harmony between all three pony races (which is why Luna and Celestia were the first Alicorns to be born), Alicorns can be born at any time and to any pony of any of the three races but only when they are needed.
  3. So, I loved this episode, but my question is, did anyone else catch Derpy in this one?
  4. While I wouldn't mind being a Pegasus, in the end I had to go with Unicorn, I like the idea of being able to fly whenever I want, to have that kind of freedom would be cool but I am just much more like a Unicorn, not extremely athletic but really, really smart and that just really fits with magic. Plus I think magic is really cool, maybe I could work on an easier to use flying spell!
  5. Well, from a purely political standpoint, yes Equestria is a Monarchy since the leaders of the land are female. However I am quite sure the actual question is much more relating to whether Equestria is a social monarchy rather than asking the obvious about it's political status. Socially speaking, it really is hard to say based on the small portion of Equestria we get to see through the show but from what I can tell it seems to be relatively equal, both mares and stallions appear to have equal opportunity and consideration for their lives. An interesting thing to note is that Equestria is actually what would be considered an egalitarian society mostly due to the existence of cutie marks, because ponies know what they are going to do in their lives and everypony is aware that other ponies were born to do what their cutie mark indicates, no one is looked down upon (well not in general at least) and are treated equally in the eyes of society. As for the distinct lack of stallions in Ponyville, all I can say is that it is a show targeted towards young girls and young girls generally will relate to female characters more easily.
