Description
I still have trouble believing this turn of events. As Celestia lies on the ground, her mane and tail stop their 'flow', and stop sparkling.The colours of Celestia's tail were different to every other scene of her I have, so I changed the colours of her tail to match the other scenes. I'm still not sure about the overall shape of the tail; I may change it later.
Celestia's right wing (on the ground) is unfurled in the source.
The crown's and necklace's details are approximated based on earlier Celestia vectors because there was not sufficient detail.
The crown has been hidden from the PNG export because it looked unusual sitting over by the side, out of context. It is present in the SVG file.

Due to the nature of this scene, you are reminded you are not allowed to reuse anything I do for violent / blood and gore purposes.

You know, it occurs to me that one would think the first this happens, the positions would be reversed.

"Can someone tell me how Celestia survived after getting beaten like this? She should have died, matter of fact, I should wonder if she should have died years ago."
- The concerns of Emerald Wishes, who is me as a unicorn pony, who is a faithful student of Celestia and often worried about his teacher because she's the protector of the country of Equestria.

That was shocking! WHY DID CELESTIA HAVE TO LOSE TO AN EVIL CREATURE THAT FEEDS OF OTHER PONIES LOVE. What makes me so livid is that people have pointed out that this was the only time in the series that the Princess took on the villain. She declares to the Changeling Queen that revealing herself was a foolish thing to do, says that now she can protect all of Equestria from her evil and this was the payoff?! Imagine that, a being of immense goodness quickly defeated by a love-sucking succubus in front of her loving friends and subjects? How humiliating! I hope Chrysalis re-emerges in season three so Celestia can have a re-match. And bring Luna in for back-up.

For some reason whenever I see the thumbnail for this, I keep thinking that Celestia is looking to the left and has a moustache.

Agreed; the eye design is a bit unusual.

Good point. I might have to do a version with Celestia changed to Nyx.

i'm with you on "trouble believing this turn of events", especially when one moment they fight off the changelings and the next they don't. WHAT WAS THAT?!

I find it really difficult to believe anything could overpower Celestia or Luna. And yeah, fighting off a swarm of Changelings, and then getting captured...

She only failed cause that Queen had ohers power + during the fight the Queen was doubting her own power at first.
Still I did feel sorry for Celestia,she's awsome.

Considering Chrysalis got her powers from Shining's love for Cadance and was able to defeat Celestia from doing so, I guess that shows just how much Shining cared for Cadance.
The whole scene was pretty confronting for a children's show.

I fell Celestia pride was hurt more than Celestia herself, to faill so fast in front of her nr. 1 student without even giving any badass fighting scene.
No wonder she alwais send others to deal with problems when she stay in the back.

Embarrassed, probably. But she's an immortal alicorn - a few minutes later, she was fine again. There were no visible injuries either, now I think about it.

CommanderEX In reply to 90Sigma [2012-07-01 01:23:55 +0000 UTC]
Yes, but it was a 1 hit, I mean it, 1 hit.
In game alicorn would have a boss or final boss status, with tons of hp, you would expect it to take a punch and stand up right after explosions and more epic attacks.
I quess bying princess in a peacefull country sure made Celestia soft.

Nightmare, Discord and Chrysalis also all went down in one hit.

CommanderEX In reply to 90Sigma [2012-07-01 14:21:33 +0000 UTC]
Yes, but thats diferent.
Elements of Harmony and this love shield final attack were plot devices, somethink like ultimate item what is like 1 shot final blast to beat up the bad guy.
Many final bosses and villans went down because of that when they were at the pic of they powers, mostly in 1 hit.
Celestia, Luna, Chrystalis, Discord, those are actualy diferent, they are beying with ultimate powers, those kind are usually very durable and powerfull, they can not use 1 hit ultimate blast, but instead you should expect that they will have an ultimate battle.
For example: Mane 6 are normal ponnys, NMM or Discord or Chrystalis, Celestia and Luna, would crush tham with easy since they have huge power and they would resist alot of they attacks, but mane 6 can use elements what can KO in 1 hit even the most powerfull byings.
But when 2 powerfull byings clash, they usually have a long and epic battle.
That is why Celestia going down in 1 hit is dissapointing, it was like crash of 2 titans and no epic battle in the end you hoped for.

in my headcannon horns are extremely sensitive. one bad shot will cause severe damage, perhaps with crippling pain.

My headcanon suggests that horns overheat after too much use, or if the horn is hit by magic and then used.

Could explain the scorching. May also explain why ponies have a limit with their magic.

Mickey-the-Luxray In reply to Billblok [2012-10-06 02:53:34 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, and it also could explain why the time travel spell can only be used once: it must be a spell that instantly overheats the caster's horn if they try to cast the spell twice. Like, barely not melting the horn overheat.
