Pretty good. It would be nice to see the alicorns returned after magic was returned.

This is nice -- a pleasant "Princess reunion" of sorts, together with an interesting take on where magic went and why. Plus Twilight learning to take on Celestia's traditional role as the benevolent, selfless demigoddess of the realm. The "solution" does appear a little risky (almost tough love, really), but it's true that ponies will more readily trust power that appears to come from their own actions, rather than from a higher authority.

Well done!

Thank you. I think I'll expand on this one. Give it more detail or explore different options.

"And what happens if it comes to that?" Twilight countered. The four alicorns looked at each other as they pondered Twilight's observation. "If they don't have magic, they won't be compelled to take preemptive action against each other, and the windigos won't have the power to return."

Then the earth ponies and pegasi became tech superpowers while the unicorns became those backward rural hicks everyone else mocks.

"I don't know how or why these rumors got started," Twilight explained. "But they all believe these rumors to be true. If it keeps up, I'm afraid the windigos will return."

All she did was introduce smartphones and PonyBook then all these trolls came out of nowhere all of a sudden. It was wild.

I have different ideas to approach the timeline between G4 and G5, and none of them are jokes. I might expend on this story or try coming up with something bigger later down the road.

please do, i get the feeling of this can be the start of something Big, and i'm all in for it.

How did these rumors begin? Where were they coming from?

Your question is as good as mine Twilight. :pinkiesad2:

"That's just it," Twilight sighed. "We can't be together anymore." Twilight looked at the other alicorns as they all gasped in unison. Twilight looked at Celestia and Luna. "I'm sorry, but not even you two can be together anymore. At least, not as alicorns anymore."

Wait what!?!?! :pinkiegasp:

"How can they believe such things?" Celestia asked. "Ponies have been living in harmony for thousands of years without fear of the others."

It's something I wish they answered more of in the G5 movie Celestia but for the time being this is the closest theory we got. :fluttershysad:

"The windigos only appear when the ponies hate and fight amongst each other," Luna observed.

And that's precisely what happened in the Make your mark special released last month. :ajsleepy:

"Harmony," Twilight began. "The other alicorns and I will do everything we can to keep Equestria safe and strong. I only pray you'll continue to do the same, but within the shadows. No one can know of your existence." A root extended to Twilight and caressed her cheek before a flash of light engulfed her. She blinked and looked around to find she was outside the ruins on the surface. She took a breath as she closed her eyes. "May this new age bring harmony back to Equestria."

And it thankfully did thx to Sunny Starscout. :twilightsmile:

Your reasoning is sound Twilight, or the others would not have agreed to this solution.
