Subjects of Equestria! We are pleased to kick off the Nightmare Night Festivities and the 14th anniversary of the return of our beloved Princess Luna! Join us in celebration!
Yeah. Too bad her ‘tragic backstory’ was questionable at best.
In a way, yes up until she redeemed herself. The path she was willing to tread was worse than all the villains in the whole series combined.
Agreed. Also, nice reference to Ray Arnold from Jurassic Park.

Performing forbidden time travel? I won’t argue with that.

^ THIS TIMES 10!
The Byzantines used more rounded archways, if I remember right. Look at the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, or St. Basil’s cathedral in Moscow. Pointed arches needed a different kind of structural support, and seem to be more of a Gothic style, like Notre Dame, or Westminster Abbey. I’d like to think there’s a huge vaulted ceiling over the throne room here.
Canterlot, from the outside, looks like it’s been rebuilt and added onto several times, merging different styles. It’s got onion domes like in a lot of Eastern European and Middle Eastern places. It also has Gothic spires and a large number of turrets with “witch hats” on them. Oriel bay windows are a Renaissance thing. The city proper has a few Tudor styled buildings. It’s a lovely mishmash really.
Sorry if I’m rambling. I’m rereading some Ken Follet books about cathedral construction, and I find it all fascinating.
Whatever happens, hold on to your butts.
One word: Armageddon. If Celestia does fall to the Dark Side and become Nightmare Star, no one is safe as the two Royal Sisters, now evil, either choose to rule Equestria together like how their parallel selves tore the parallel Equestria apart, or vie for control.
Again, time will tell.
Maybe a little bit of Byzantine?
Elements of Greco-Roman and Moroccan?
Maybe some Moorish architecture? I know Duo Cartoonist got some inspiration from old cities surrounding Andalusia for Canterlot in the “Children of the Night” animation.
Hmm, then what happens to Equestria when they have two Nightmares running around?
Still, since all we see is Nightmare Moon on the throne and Celestia leading the Royal Guards to apparently attack the Crystal Empire, now back under Sombra’s tyrannical rule, there is a chance that Celestia will be forced to use the Dark Side of magic, and thus be corrupted and turned into Nightmare Star.
Time will tell…
People went overboard saying the promo spoiled the finale, myself included but I think it’s more along the lines of spoiling part 1 partially, part 2 is probabily going to be unknown to us.
At this point, we still don’t know if NMS is even going to be in the finale. Likely she is. Just that Discovery seems to be handling spoilers more easy than Hub did.
You’re a bit slow on the draw there, /mlp/ has been speculating Nightmare Star for several months in the fianle.

But still kickass looking.
Pick the balance spec and make it easy on yourself.
If the ruins of the Castle of Two Sisters didn’t seem like the ruins of the Chaos Shrine at the beginning of the first FF, I don’t know what is. The NMM confrontation back in season 1 felt like an intro boss fight.
But my loyalty is ultimately with the Sun.
FIGHT!!
On one hand, the doors have definitely that almond shape typical of Arabian/ North African architecture.
On theo ther hand, the columns look like Doric-styled columns with an elongated plinth.
Mmm… there would be something similar in Sicilian architecture, but I do not remember if it does have a proper name.
