We don’t know how long harmony lasted under the unity crystals but 100 years is definitely short enough for languages to not drift; Gulliver’s Travels is older than all but three US states and yet we still mostly understand it today.

@Wiimeiser
Who knows?

@Wiimeiser
Not so far off huh? Celestia and Luna might be alive

So looking at the spoiler, 100 years, at least since Canterlot was abandoned.

On a unrelated note, I think it’s interesting that no one used this thread for 3/4 months.

@Wiimeiser
But, she’s still out there (possibly). So maybe, she taught the shadow alicorn.

@Background Pony #8652
That was purely setup for the Transformers crossover, but the pandemic fucked the release order

@Background Pony #82D3
That’s true.

@Wiimeiser
Honestly, I don’t think there’s any loose ends.
Unless you consider the Chrysalis statue cracking.

@CORDZ2000
So according to a spoiler, the harmony didn’t even last a single generation. Though that begs the question of how long it’s been. All three races could communicate easily so no more than 1000 years… And who is this shadowy alicorn? Surely it can’t be Flurry Heart… Are there any leftover loose ends in G4? Let me think… Ashlands timeline, Villain Trio, Svengallop, Season 10, Spur being dubiously canon, and that’s all I can really think of…

@Wiimeiser
all we got is shadowy alicorn lol

Do we know the name of the alicorn? And what did she do?

@Background Pony #8652
At least they’re giving us an answer for what happened instead of pulling a Cozy Glow and not telling us squat.

@Phoenixflambe
Yeah.

With some people saying bad things about Discord I can only imagine him singing Would I lie to you? by Charles & Eddie.

@cheezedoodle
While that is correct and understandable, that is not what happened with Generations.

@Background Pony #94D4
That apology felt more genuine than in Season 9.

@CORDZ2000
Yeah, though considering Hasbro broke ties with DHX… I think you know.

@Background Pony #94D4
thanks and wish s10 was in the show

@Hali the Emoji girl
except for the fact that discord planned on being a safety net like he said himself so the plan failed due to arrogance. And given his powers it makes sense he would not think anything can go wrong or if it did he could easily fix it. Discord saw it as fake danger and ultimately after beating unremorseful characters twilight would have the confidence to rule the kingdom.

@CORDZ2000
Agreed, here.

@Hali the Emoji girl
So, at least he succeeded, though not in the way he wanted it.

And while it did make discord a jerk, let’s be fair, he at least learned his lesson in season 10.

@Hali the Emoji girl
he didn’t know they got to the bell and if he did know it was real, didn’t know they could use it as we saw they had to break in and get a book on it. The bigger answer is because of discord’s arrogance its the same reason he didn’t think to destroy the elements or think the mane six could use them against him despite celestia and luna turning him once before. The plan failed due to arrogance not any malicious intent.
