Why don't I ever see anyone mention his ethereal, flowing mane and tail? Even if he wasn't an Alicorn, he still wielded enough power that his body expressed such energy. Who else have we seen with these capabilities? Celestia and Luna. That alone shows that his magic - even if he was just a unicorn - was on par with Alicorns' magic. I definitely believe Sombra was going to become an Alicorn. :)
Or when he comes back he will have his wings back then he can get the Alicorn Amulet I also think he might be part Changeling like some sort type of changeling sort of like maybe it's called a shadow Changeling and he is the king of the Shadow changelings but all his shadow changelings are in hiding
Oh, if only the writing staff hadn't confirmed in official statements that King Sombra was officially dead... Regardless, this theory is brilliant! GO, FANFICTION WRITERS! TO THINE KEYBOARDS!
Sunlight Blaze That can't be right, because the comic (though they contradict this somewhat) blatantly imply that Sombra's return is a possibility. And they definitely go through Hasbro before getting published. Besides, the writers have definitely been known to say some half-truths before, haha
One of the new ones- Fiendship is magic, although they are semi-independent of the show. So maybe the show writers just meant that they don't plan to do anything with him anymore
Ah. Haven't read any of the comics past Zen and the Art of Gazebo Repair with Big Mac and the Mane Six Microseries. Shame they don't plan on doing anything more with Sombra. Then again, if they showed his full potential as a villain, it wouldn't exactly be safe for their target demographic. Amazing when they create a villain so evil they can't show his full power. Oh well, there's still fanfictions!
Chuck Lee I like King Sombra he's my favorite My Little Pony villain he's got a badass voice and a really cool unique appearance I really hope we'll finally see him return in Season 8 and I would love to see The Alicorn Amulet return in Season 8 too and I would love to see The Alicorn Amulet latch itself onto Twilight's neck and turn her evil and I got a good plot idea for it too Twilight Sparkle can turn evil because she's still bitter about the incidents in Lesson Zero and A Canterlot Wedding It's the perfect plot for a Twilight turns evil Season 8 Episode
Blood Unicorn Twilight Sparkle: I'm crossing over to the dark side (points at a dark part of the Crystal Empire) Celestia: (shrugs) Why should I waste bits lighting the Empire? King Sombra: appears out of the shadows Did somepony say Evil? Spike and the Mane Five: Holy Oil spill it's King Sombra Twilight: (smirks) Nighty night you old Princess
When Zacora said "it only respons to alicorn magic" twilight didnt use alicorn magic, it was dark magic. There are three tipes of magic. Normal magic, that all unicorns use. Dark magic, that Sombra and in some points Twilight and Celestia use. And the third, alicorn magic. In all other cases that Celestia and Twilight use their magic as alicorns, there seems to be no signs of black-purple-green cercuals. Those two tipes of magic (alicorn - dark) are very diferent. P.S. sorry baut my english
There is a point in your video, Sombra's Cloak is torn away and he starts to turn to smoke/shadow. It looks like he is growing wings. Wing Wraiths? Corrupted Ponies, Black, shadowy, with dark powers related to Sombra's own - like say they feed on emotions even as he twists them? As in, the Changelings?
Mina Karadzic Perhaps, in using it herself, Celestia somehow corrupted or "darkened" Alicorn magic? Considering how long she has been an Alicorn, she would have a stronger connection than most to this kind of magic, and in using Dark Magic, perhaps mixed them, even if it was only a minute amount. In mixing the two magicks, perhaps one may be confused with the other, since both have parts of the same makeup.
4:00 Sombra was Celestia's student at one point, but he was a Pegasus and was studying magic. He found a book containing... um... idk... black magic spells...? anyways... so he tried to do one of those spells, and he grew a red, crooked horn from it. so... he's an Alicorn
Actually, the MLP comic spin-off series 'FIENDship is Magic' explains Sombra's origins... as well as showing that he DID 'survive' his defeat in the show.
First great video CP, not only does this conspiracy sound plossible, but frankly if the show were to do it, I think it would improve the overall canon of the show. Having Sombra return and be a full to multi season (S5 has been confirmed so that's a thing) villain, would allow the staff to retool him slightly and make him the villain he should have been. There are so many ways they could work him that would still allow the show to have a balance of slice - of - life as well as adventure, so here's hoping the staff takes advantage of this unsung villain and gives him the proper respect he deserves.
King Sombra to me is the best pony of the whole entire series. I love him and hated how they decided to just get rid of him unlike the others who come back (Discord). They should being him back!!!
Here’s the loophole in your theory though. In the first MLP movie, we’re introduced to Temptest, a unicorn with a broken horn. And she herself reveals that it was broken at a young age and she was forced to grow up with a broken horn. And even after reaching adulthood, it never grew back. She even asked The Storm King, the main antagonist, to restore her horn.
Sombra is something much worse than anyone cares to even imagine. He is Celestia and Luna's BROTHER and he was stronger than either of them. His fall, however, was not his doing or will. He was taken by the same dark powers that made Nightmare Moon. Without Sombra to use as its bludgeon, these dark powers took Luna and made her Nightmare Moon. Celestia has so much to do, keeping tabs on ponies who might be turned or are fighting it as best as they can. This is why she is frequently away. But her greatest fear remains. Sombra is not just out there, he is everywhere now. He will return, and it is very unlikely anyone will be able stop him with any power they have or know of, at this time.
Yay finally this is out! I was wondering when you would post this. And it looks so much more amazinger than when we talked it over, now that it's published. Yay!
liLightaura Horcruxes are based on the Lich interpretation of phylacteries. Horcruxes are part of one's soul while phylacteries contain an entire soul.
Ya know, so bra could still have wings if he was an Alison even though it's not obvious he did. When I was watching this, I thought, maybe his wings are ripped or broken in a way so he either can't open or use them. It kind of makes sense, and he did use dark magic that any unicorn could use. ^^ also, do you think there's any similarity between Luna's transformation and sombra? Because she was present at his defeat, and was soon after banished from the moon. There is also the possibility that sombra's crown was the alicorn amulet because the magic duel episode comes after the crystal empire and we don't know how long It had been after sombras defeat and trixie's return. It could have been made from his crown, and was enchanted when it was found, so they just ,are it look like an amulet and tried to sell it until Trixie got it.
In the LoTR movies, yes Sauron didn't have a physical body anymore, but I think I remember hearing that in the books, he retained his body. It was sitting upon a throne or something in the eye's tower, waiting to be reunited with the one ring.
What if or when Celestia was mentoring Sombra he was ment to rule the Chrystal empire but was much too young so he was tutored by her as an alicorn already. Then once Celestia relized the darkness frowning in his heart severed his wings to weakling his alicorn ability. Sombra didn't see him self the darkness because it had already consumed him with out his knowledge. So now he would blame Celestia for being so cruel unleashing the true darkness. Running away and gaining his dark magic power teaching himself and ruling over the Chrystal empire with an iron hoove.
Great theory and all but in the 2019 mlp movie we see a unicorn who's horn was broken off when she was young and failed to grow back implying that unicorn horns aren't true horns since real horns can grow back if broken like a fingernail
2:52 What about the necklaces that the sirens wore to give them power, in equestrian girls rainbow ROCKS. They also had red glowing eyes when they peaked to full magic power, and also treated everyone like slaves by making do what they wanted by singing, or brainwashing i should say. Could this also be related to how dark magic works? or even Sombra perhaps?
I know somethings are weird on this theory, but in his original defeat, you can see black smoke or dust float away around where his wing where. It was at about 6:59
I like this theory, it fits into my OC backstory because she started as a unicorn but was kidnaped and to prevent her from escaping with magic her horn was broken and had to be sealed in its current state with black magic to prevent it from growing back.
Hes always going to be alive! Hes legit made of shadow or watever! He keeps coming back, cuz im watching this vid in 2020. But he will never be defeated.
My theroy is that his wings where cut off. and before the wings where cut the amulet was made with the wings. it said in it that he was a dark KING with much POWER he probally was able to make own wings grow on him. and have u noticed how his horn was diffrent then a unicorn? he may of been a pegasus and was 1st good and got his horn from the princesses. and his power corrupted him. kinda like if he was star swirled. good their may be something in the my little pony universe that celetsia never told anyone that star swirled got turned into a alicorn. Maybe his powered if he was a power corrupted him to become evil? idk thats my theroy
Well for me there is a possibility Sombra may came back because.... He didn't get destroyed, well maybe he did get destroyed but he's pieces are still out there. And Sombra's horn wasn't crushed so Sombra's magic are still out there.. And even if it was destroyed, the shadows will put it back together, for a normal pony well it will be very hard to repair a horn because a horn is composed of magic and you'll need to give up half of your magic to make a horn! But for Sombra it's very easy.... Wait a darn tootin second... The question is.. Is Sombra a Gary Stu?
hearing him say probably all unicorns grow the horn back then remembering I'm going to the new mlp movie, where the villain has a broken horn is proving his theory wrong XC
"We never see anyone else with a broken horn" actually, in that episode with film and flam and their tonic thing there were a couple unicorns with bandages on their horns in the crowd
The season 5 finale really makes this a lot more compelling, because now we know the consequences of his return. Before it, he was just some guy everyone was afraid of.
this idea is fantastic. I wish this depth would have been added to Somra's story (maybe in season five?), as it would make him a way more interesting villain.I love the idea of Sombra staying alive with the power of the amulet, and the twist with his wings is a very nice addition. I only worry that this sort of story will cause some legal problems with the rights owners of the original lord of the rings trilogy, since that's basically plagiarism, but if that does happen...
i used to have the ring from "lord of the rings" that i found in a monopoly game based of the show and i lost it ;-; saddest part was is i didn't even know what "lord of the rings" was back then
My headcannon is that Sombra is in a shadowy state and will team up with chrysalis. They would need the alicorn necklace to revive him. And he and chrysalis would rule equestria together. Or perhaps they were once together like your episode 4.
I am watching this in 2019 and i have some things i want to say.In the mlp movie theres a character who has a broken horn,And it never grew back,but she was still able to produce magic,So that got me thinking what if sombra was an alicorn I though for a while and came to this conclusion that some of the alicorns have been through some life threatening things,but none of their horns have ever broken.So then i thought about it harder. As i said there is a character who’s horn is cut off no spoilers to people who haven’t watched it but her horn got cut off by the thingy that twilght banishes(can’t remeber what its called) Its in the episode where trixie is showing off.But in the episode A canterlot wedding Celestia is fighting Queen Chrisaliys and when they stop celestia is thrown to the ground with the top bit of her horn looking burnt.Then how come Tempest(the pony i was talking about) horn got cut of,I have a feeling unicorns horns are weaker then alicorns but sombra does not seem like a pony,When he’s is seen heading towards the crystal empire he is seen with a black cloud around him. I thought what if he was the pony of shadows? But as seeing the end of season eight I’m pretty sure I noticed that the pony of shadows is someone else then that got me thinking what if he was king sombra all along? It made sense! I know this for a fact because the pony i’m talking about was around when the pillars of equestria fought The villans Like the sirens.and that was around the time sombra had taken over the crystal empire. But if so how do I explain that sombra comes back? As you will find if your watching this in my time i am watching you may know that in season 9 i’m pretty sure sombra is found trying to take over the crystal empire again.... I’ll leave other people to thereorise around what i have said
That would be awesome if they brought Sombra back. He is my favorite bad pony. I love how close they made him to Sauron. Though I didn't make the connection between him and the Alicon Amulet, but it dose make sense. I hope the MLP writers see this video.
Just to say, sombra may not have had wings, but there is something else you did point out that could be the former make of the alicorn amulet...His crown.
hey in season 5 nightmare moon is supposed to willing come back to fight off an evil what if sombra is the evil and has come back with a huge army witch causes need foe nightmare moon to come back and fight him because there may be no other way?
Tempest from the mlp movie has a broken horn, so maybe only people on there way to being alicorns get there horns back of fixed or rejuvenated. It's possible!
It's season seaven and I belive that KING Sombra and QUEEN Chrystalis are twins. (look king queen hello??) and since Chrystalis declinded Starlights friendship and forgiveness. I want King Sombra and Queen Chrystalis to come back with an army of Changelings and maybe some of Sombra's warriors ( in the episode where Starlight uses time travel) . That would be EPIC..... plus It might hint towards the Lumbra ship.....
I love this video so much. I'm a serious Sombra fan and that's mostly because of this big mystery of where he came from. Who is he?! If this video is what I get until his possible return or confirmed death THEN I'LL TAKE IT!!!
In the 2017 season and will film 7. Maybe then he come back in a big stulu and this time will be something said or will be longer than three minutes with breaks. It's such a great character, probably the best villain in the whole series. Hasbro can present it as a great evil, and teach your children that you have to fight the evil or show the children that nobody - even the greatest villains - are not entirely bad, and everyone can be saved. It remains only to hope, wait and constantly ask if Hasbro will make its return.
Watch The tale of ones shadow. It gives a a very good theory for sombra.bMy personally thoughts on the matter is that sombra was originally a unicorn prince,.living in the crystal empire.He had a girlfriend of some type. He started to dabble in the practice of dark magic to find new ways to rule and his girlfriend told him to stop before he was consumed. He didn't listen and was partially tooken over by the dark magic , Evil sombra being born. Evil sombra would take over at random times affecting his rule, so regular sombra went out to fight him and his girlfriend watched. Evil sombra won and proceeded to take over the crystal empire.
Sombra was a friend of Luna. He used to be like Twilight. but he started to study dark magic and got to where he was today. Luna tried to help him escape the dark magic's hold but failed. When Zecora said alicorm magic, she mean the magic the alicorm was able to use. Twilight learned how to use the dark magic in the mission of saving the crystal empire.
These videos are all great! You should really make more. They deserve more publicity... Although, I have to ask: Do you use any sound filtering techniques through Audacity or anything?
You should do an episode on Cutie Mark Failure Insanity Syndrome, the theory that a pony has insanity issues when they feel that they have failed their cutie marks. This theory even stands out in fan works such as "Cheerilee's Garden".
As interesting as that is, I see that as more sense if they fail to even get cutie marks (like Mr.Greenhooves for example). This would explain why cutie marks are so important, and why so many ponies try to earn such things.
Neon-sphinx foster That's an interesting concept. And have we ever seen an adult pony without a cutie mark (other than in animation errors and the occasional background pony)? Generally we just kinda accept that everyone gets one eventually, but what if there's some that just don't? What happens to them? Surely there's SOME ponies that just go against what they were born to do
I know at least every single pony I've seen in the show has some sort of cutie mark on their flank (fillies and colts are an obvious exception). To me, if a pony doesn't earn a cuie mark, they could either go inane trying to find out their talent, or clinically depressed sine they believe that they have no special talent, making them feel worthless.
I believe that the amulet was created by Princess Celestia to capture Sombre's power, sort of like in the friendship games. Who ever wears the amulet gets emense power.
Also what if trixie is a relative of star swirl. Star swirl possibly could have wanted more power just like Sombra, Chrysalis, and the Sirens. Maybe the writer's are giving us a hint here?
if that was true, wouldn't the amulet return his wings to him? after all, it is said rather frequently that if sauron got the ring, he would return to his original state, as he was before he lost it.
Why don't I ever see anyone mention his ethereal, flowing mane and tail?
Even if he wasn't an Alicorn, he still wielded enough power that his body expressed such energy.
Who else have we seen with these capabilities? Celestia and Luna.
That alone shows that his magic - even if he was just a unicorn - was on par with Alicorns' magic.
I definitely believe Sombra was going to become an Alicorn. :)
me to
Or when he comes back he will have his wings back then he can get the Alicorn Amulet I also think he might be part Changeling like some sort type of changeling sort of like maybe it's called a shadow Changeling and he is the king of the Shadow changelings but all his shadow changelings are in hiding
hey his the final villan of the series
and mistmane and twilight and caidence
Actually flowing manes are tied to age as when Luna was reformed she didn't have a flowing manes but when we see her again she does
Seems like one of the rules of fiction is. 'Unless you see the body assume that one might comeback.'
And even if you see the body, one may still come back.
I am in full support of that rule
look at darth maul
No even if you see the body assume they will be back
What about the poopoopeepee monster from horse tamey spinldeydontles
Oh, if only the writing staff hadn't confirmed in official statements that King Sombra was officially dead...

Also.... A Horn.... Yeah .... It can't grow...
Cause It's Bone not Keratin or somethin'...

Brilliantly laid out theory. I love it! Subscribed.

"We never see anyone else with a broken horn" actually, in that episode with film and flam and their tonic thing there were a couple unicorns with bandages on their horns in the crowd
Yeah- I did notice that. I could be wrong. But none of them were necessarily broken like Sombra's was. Maybe they had poison yoke or somethin
ConspiraPon3 maybe, or it could have just been a crack or something... idk :P
Maybe they wore just waiting for them to grow back?
There is a Fiendship is magic piece now, where he was found alone, and his backstory is explained.
The season 5 finale really makes this a lot more compelling, because now we know the consequences of his return. Before it, he was just some guy everyone was afraid of.
In MLP movie tempest had a broken horn
This vid came out years ago.
this idea is fantastic. I wish this depth would have been added to Somra's story (maybe in season five?), as it would make him a way more interesting villain.I love the idea of Sombra staying alive with the power of the amulet, and the twist with his wings is a very nice addition. I only worry that this sort of story will cause some legal problems with the rights owners of the original lord of the rings trilogy, since that's basically plagiarism, but if that does happen...
ONE THING I LIKE ABOUT THIS VIDEO IS THAT THE EVIDENCE AND HYPOTHESIS DON'T SOUND RIDICULOUS.
Suddenly, A Wild To Where And Back Again Appears!
Love this show! Awesome researching work! Did Twilight helped you? :D
I know this was six years ago but in One of the MLP movies there’s a unicorn name temprist whose horn got cut off when she was a foal
i used to have the ring from "lord of the rings" that i found in a monopoly game based of the show and i lost it ;-; saddest part was is i didn't even know what "lord of the rings" was back then
My headcannon is that Sombra is in a shadowy state and will team up with chrysalis. They would need the alicorn necklace to revive him. And he and chrysalis would rule equestria together. Or perhaps they were once together like your episode 4.
I’d like to see you make a video on this now concerning Tempest
What if Sombra is an alicorn he's just covers his wings with his Cape or maybe he had his wings cut off
that is exactly what he said in his theory. What is the point in making your comment?
hes like "hatch from a crystal egg" he can. lol theres a comic of his backstory that everyone seems to forget lol
its so funny to watch this 10 years later
I am watching this in 2019 and i have some things i want to say.In the mlp movie theres a character who has a broken horn,And it never grew back,but she was still able to produce magic,So that got me thinking what if sombra was an alicorn I though for a while and came to this conclusion that some of the alicorns have been through some life threatening things,but none of their horns have ever broken.So then i thought about it harder.
As i said there is a character who’s horn is cut off no spoilers to people who haven’t watched it but her horn got cut off by the thingy that twilght banishes(can’t remeber what its called) Its in the episode where trixie is showing off.But in the episode A canterlot wedding Celestia is fighting Queen Chrisaliys and when they stop celestia is thrown to the ground with the top bit of her horn looking burnt.Then how come Tempest(the pony i was talking about) horn got cut of,I have a feeling unicorns horns are weaker then alicorns but sombra does not seem like a pony,When he’s is seen heading towards the crystal empire he is seen with a black cloud around him.
I thought what if he was the pony of shadows? But as seeing the end of season eight I’m pretty sure I noticed that the pony of shadows is someone else then that got me thinking what if he was king sombra all along? It made sense! I know this for a fact because the pony i’m talking about was around when the pillars of equestria fought The villans Like the sirens.and that was around the time sombra had taken over the crystal empire.
But if so how do I explain that sombra comes back? As you will find if your watching this in my time i am watching you may know that in season 9 i’m pretty sure sombra is found trying to take over the crystal empire again....
I’ll leave other people to thereorise around what i have said
Ursa minor
There are only 9 season dude
SOJ The Kings Jk Yeah I wasn’t completely sure how many seasons there were when I wrote that
SOJ The Kings Jk I will also change it
@@aalishtaggart8646 *NICE*
"Union's horns grow back" mlp just had to make tempest
He will come back but then he will be reformed
That would be awesome if they brought Sombra back. He is my favorite bad pony. I love how close they made him to Sauron. Though I didn't make the connection between him and the Alicon Amulet, but it dose make sense. I hope the MLP writers see this video.
+Frank Strykowski if he is then wouldn't he be related to nightmare moon or bat ponies?
'we never see anyone else with a broken horn'
ok so this video's probably outdated but Fizzlepop Berrytwist (Tempest Shadow)?
Just to say, sombra may not have had wings, but there is something else you did point out that could be the former make of the alicorn amulet...His crown.
hey in season 5 nightmare moon is supposed to willing come back to fight off an evil what if sombra is the evil and has come back with a huge army witch causes need foe nightmare moon to come back and fight him because there may be no other way?
Tempest from the mlp movie has a broken horn, so maybe only people on there way to being alicorns get there horns back of fixed or rejuvenated. It's possible!
It's season seaven and I belive that KING Sombra and QUEEN Chrystalis are twins. (look king queen hello??) and since Chrystalis declinded Starlights friendship and forgiveness. I want King Sombra and Queen Chrystalis to come back with an army of Changelings and maybe some of Sombra's warriors ( in the episode where Starlight uses time travel) . That would be EPIC..... plus It might hint towards the Lumbra ship.....
Suddenly, A Wild Shadow Play Appears!
Or what if, because he is wearing the alicorn amulet, his wings are in a different form ( and Trixie didn't get wings because she doesn't have them)!
Holy party canons. That's possible?!
I'm SHOCKED LOL
I love this video so much. I'm a serious Sombra fan and that's mostly because of this big mystery of where he came from. Who is he?! If this video is what I get until his possible return or confirmed death THEN I'LL TAKE IT!!!
Mm... Sounds more like the alicorn amulet is a nod to a horcrux.
This theory seemed to be going alright but then it just jumped the shark with the LOTR thing.
Omfg this video just opened my eyes, even tho it was created 2 years ago. Hope dies last ^^
7:17 What about Tempest the unicorn who lost it's horn.
Maybe turning Sombra to shadow took away the needed physicality and stability to wear the Alicorn Amulet?
In the 2017 season and will film 7. Maybe then he come back in a big stulu and this time will be something said or will be longer than three minutes with breaks. It's such a great character, probably the best villain in the whole series. Hasbro can present it as a great evil, and teach your children that you have to fight the evil or show the children that nobody - even the greatest villains - are not entirely bad, and everyone can be saved.
It remains only to hope, wait and constantly ask if Hasbro will make its return.
Watch The tale of ones shadow. It gives a a very good theory for sombra.bMy personally thoughts on the matter is that sombra was originally a unicorn prince,.living in the crystal empire.He had a girlfriend of some type. He started to dabble in the practice of dark magic to find new ways to rule and his girlfriend told him to stop before he was consumed. He didn't listen and was partially tooken over by the dark magic , Evil sombra being born. Evil sombra would take over at random times affecting his rule, so regular sombra went out to fight him and his girlfriend watched. Evil sombra won and proceeded to take over the crystal empire.
One change, I think he was Luna's student, who studied dark magic so he could help fight off nightmares.
Sombra was a friend of Luna. He used to be like Twilight. but he started to study dark magic and got to where he was today. Luna tried to help him escape the dark magic's hold but failed. When Zecora said alicorm magic, she mean the magic the alicorm was able to use. Twilight learned how to use the dark magic in the mission of saving the crystal empire.
in season six, rainbow dash says that king Sombra once ruled, but without the crystal heart
These videos are all great! You should really make more. They deserve more publicity...
Although, I have to ask: Do you use any sound filtering techniques through Audacity or anything?
You should do an episode on Cutie Mark Failure Insanity Syndrome, the theory that a pony has insanity issues when they feel that they have failed their cutie marks. This theory even stands out in fan works such as "Cheerilee's Garden".
As interesting as that is, I see that as more sense if they fail to even get cutie marks (like Mr.Greenhooves for example). This would explain why cutie marks are so important, and why so many ponies try to earn such things.
Neon-sphinx foster That's an interesting concept. And have we ever seen an adult pony without a cutie mark (other than in animation errors and the occasional background pony)? Generally we just kinda accept that everyone gets one eventually, but what if there's some that just don't? What happens to them? Surely there's SOME ponies that just go against what they were born to do
I know at least every single pony I've seen in the show has some sort of cutie mark on their flank (fillies and colts are an obvious exception). To me, if a pony doesn't earn a cuie mark, they could either go inane trying to find out their talent, or clinically depressed sine they believe that they have no special talent, making them feel worthless.
Neon-sphinx foster You could get worse than depression from something like that.
Is there an updated version of this video? Broken horns exist now...
I believe that the amulet was created by Princess Celestia to capture Sombre's power, sort of like in the friendship games. Who ever wears the amulet gets emense power.
Here's an unsolve mlp theory: what is sombra's cutiemark?
We never see anyone else with their horn cut off.
Mlp the movie: yeah no, never mind:)
Actually Sauron got 'weaker' after each defeat... but yeah the show should go all out with Sombra-Sauron connection
Also what if trixie is a relative of star swirl. Star swirl possibly could have wanted more power just like Sombra, Chrysalis, and the Sirens. Maybe the writer's are giving us a hint here?
if that was true, wouldn't the amulet return his wings to him? after all, it is said rather frequently that if sauron got the ring, he would return to his original state, as he was before he lost it.
1:22 Nope, they just had a spell cast on them. :d
If that is true it would be creepy, but cool at the same time as well if King somba does return sometime in the next future seasons of mlp
I also think Starswirl was Celestia and Luna's mentor not the other way around
Another reason horn grow back is celestias horn was burnt when fighting chrysalis then after that she's fine.
