Wondering if (Spoiler) will be in "it isn't the mane thing about you"

[Unlikeable Pony 2,698]

Kind of thinking that mistmane might be in "It isn't the mane thing about you" and not campfire tales. Specifically, we're expecting only 3 legends to be used in campfire tales, right? (One for each of the CMC). At the same time, we're also expecting the other 2 legends to be used during this season, with most people speculating on Meadowbrook showing up in a health of information.

So, Rockhoof and magnus feel like solid guesses for Applebloom and Scoots, leaving somnambula and Mistmane for the remaining characters. Now, What do we know about Somnambula and mistmane? Well, Mistmane gives up her youth to save equestria, helped a bunch of Animals by getting luna to change The castle of the two sisterCanterlot's design, looked asian and fought Pony Fu-manchu, and Somnambula looks like an egyptian, has a bunch of gemstones on the cover of her Comic cover, and goes into a snake's stomach to save it.

Now, think about mistmane and what she did as her biggest act, sacrificing her youth (and her looks with it) to save equestria, and then what other episodes we have coming down the line: It isn't the mane thing about you is about Rarity losing her Hair in an accident, and most probably will be her finding out/realizing that her beauty is only a small bit of why everyone loves and respects her. So mistmane would actually work incredibly well as a character to be brought up in that episode, being a beautiful pony who sacrified her age and beauty (Generosity) to help others and was even more beloved for that than her looks-- MistMANE, it isn't the MANE thing about you, ect. ect. ect.

On the other hand, having a hard time figuring out where somnambula might factor into other episodes: not really seeing any episode in which she'd really fit in (though I could possibly see flash being used in Triple threat with ember), though there is Number 24 uncommon bond.

 

 

 

Just by a matter of elimination, I think it makes more sense that we'll see somnambula and not mistmane in campfire tales.

If that's the case than It Isn't the Mane Thing About You sounds like it could be a lot more interesting than I imagined it could have been.

Plus if this means we are getting multiple episodes through out the season focusing on an arc about these legendary ponies that would culminate in the finale, then I am all for it.

We haven't really had anything like this outside of the keys in season 4, which were one of my favorite aspects of said season.

It does make it sound more interesting, but chances are it'll most likely be "shenanigans the Episode"

True, though it's weird said arc is introduced at the latter half of the season  . Hell, the fact that an arc really exist it's kinda out of the blue  . I mean, the Shadowlock arc, and the Legends of Magic tying with the season made us wonder how exactly they are tied. Glad we have an answer

Also, Somnambula, by elimination, should have a connection with Pinks, and I don't think her intruding the camp to tell Somnambula's tale is beyond her, as I don't see where else she may fit  . The only episodes, apart of the finale, that seems like they have a connection with the heroes, is the Mane Thing About You, now that you mention it, A Health of Information, and presumably, the recently revealed Uncommon Bond, which I guess Starswirl and Twi share said bond

Uncommon bond could also be another geneology episode, with pinkie finding out she's related to somnambula or meadowbrook.

  Doubtful, since there are no characters in FIM by those names.

Who? the pony heroes? They appeared in a new IDW pony comics series, and they will appear in the show soon

Could be a nice callback to Pinkie Apple Pie
