Basically what I expected from Iridium. Can't let Platinum spread "lies" about "Windegos", can't execute her only heir, so imprisonment it is.
Pretty sure Luna and Starswirl aren't on the same page. Luna thinks he's exasperated at her inability to do things "right", but she's probably showing him ways of doing things that never occurred to him. Luna doesn't want to bother him further by asking for advice beyond fixing her mistakes, so he probably doesn't realize she thinks she's inept.
It just occurred to me that Celestia's betrayal makes slightly more sense if Luna had attacked family before. If Luna encounters Iridium, and Iridium says and does exactly the wrong things, it's entirely believable that Luna would cut her down. That, combined with the fact that Celestia isn't there to witness it with full context, would colour Celestia's view of Luna for the rest of their reign.
I don't have too much to say, but this is pretty good. I found the story this morning and have been binge reading the whole thing for several hours. It's intense and dramatic without quite feeling angsty. These last few hours have been very enjoyable.
There's something I think I've noticed in this sequence of memories. I'd have to go back and reread the whole thing to be sure, but...
There's been no mention of cutie marks. At all. Right? Luna only identifies ponies by coat and mane colour, and by name. Luna being "Moon Marked" redirected my attention away from any actual marks. But we do know she doesn't have one, and I'm fairly sure she hasn't included marks in any descriptions of ponies.
Is this a time before cutie marks existed? We know the old Alicorns were capable of placing a spell on the whole world which persists after they've left; the Heartsong. Will Celestia's and Luna's ascension also cause cutie marks to come into being?
Time for weaponized autism. They won't know what's coming.
