WAHHH 5K VIEWS IN 1 DAY IS SO SO SO AMAZING... Thank you everyone so much!!!! i've gotten some comments wanting to know more about the au so here's a bit of info for u curious peeps... This au takes place about 1,200 years in the future. Twilight turned starlight into an alicorn so they could rule together (akin to celestia and luna) and they ruled in peace for over a millenia. the crystal that shows up (and shatters) in the vid is the unity crystal from g5... and i have a LOT of feelings about how g5 was written and the fact they tried making it canon to g4 while also REALLY messing with a lot of the pre-existing 9 SEASON LONG lore. most of my knowledge of the g5 show canon i learned from Star Strike's review vids (look him up, great mlp youtuber) but i recommend reading the comic instead of watching the show... anyway. twilight created the unity crystal, sucked all the magic from equestria (including beyond, like the dragonlands. wow!) due to queen opaline causing infighting and making the pony tribes split etc. So essentially princess twilight goes "Clearly this magic is causing ponies to hate each other.... so they shouldn't have magic if they're just gonna use it against each other. I'm gonna put all the magic in the WORLD in these three crystals and as long as they're together and everypony is happy they'll have magic! perfect plan!" and in the g5 canon. There was legit an episode where ponies started fighting... like... a normal unserious friendship-ending fight... and magic just DISAPPEARRED. So this means even a moderate amount of fighting is picked up by the crystal and it just takes away all the magic again. so in the au starlight thinks this is mad clearly, especially because magic is so dear to her and is literally her special talent and is SHOCKED because the same is true of twilight but unfortunately twilight is a jaded 1000 year old alicorn and is just like Well you and me know how to use our magic not to hurt ponies so we can still have it. and starlight is like BUT YOU JUST USED MAGIC TO HURT PONIES CANT YOU SEE??? anyway there was a bit of a fight but starlight hates fighting with twilight so she was just like.... sigh. fine i'll give it a chance . A hundred years pass and pony society is kind of really not doing good. The other societies they were connected with aren't banded together anymore because they see ponies as the cause of the loss of magic (though some friends still find ways to see eachother) and twilight still thinks it's the right thing to do. And starlight is unfortunately a rager and a fellow jaded 1000 year old alicorn and she thinks it's all a horrible idea and she knows twilight won't listen to her so she's been keeping it from twilight but one day she just snaps and kills her and the amv is like.. their last convo. and that's when twilight realizes what she's done to equestria and she sees nopony better fit to end her life than starlight. she doesn't even fight back (which makes starlight even angrier because twilight couldn't even stand with her decision in death) ...and literally 40 years after magic returned everything was pretty much back to normal. meaning all of that was for nothing. And sure . starlight didn't HAVE to kill twilight to make her realize the unity crystal was a bad idea especially since she understood once she saw the fury in starlight's eyes... But it's starlight man she doesn't have any friends left either. starlight and twilight are each other's only friends. So starlight had nothing to gain killing twilight. To her she lost everything but magic is back now so hooray! :D what happens after is up to interpretation i think. starlight could flee or she could help reform pony society by herself... so many options!!!! if y'all have cool ideas or thoughts on what i should do next i'd love to hear >:3 i know this is SUPER long so to whoever's reading this: you are awesome thank you so much for watching my video and appreciating my art

[@Cupid_thekitty]

From one artist too another. This is amazing! Your way to underated!

[@Bluebunny807]

Maybe I am wrong but I think that starlight as an alicorn would be more powerful than twilight cause check this out 1.) Starlight could easily defeat twilight in her unicorn form while twilight couldn't stop her even when she was an alicorn 2.) She is not only blessed with powerful magic but also she knows many spells, under twilight training her skills would polish into something powerful.

[@drumandbass69]

Ur definitely right and i've always thought the same too... starlight as a UNICORN was evenly matched with twilight. had twilight not made friends with her they really would have been trapped fighting for all eternity..... but when starlight becomes an alicorn too? (explosion)
