But on the note of Luna’s abilities:
Luna’s magic is unlike what is usually seen by other magic users. She can shapeshift, animate and radically alter the appearance of inanimate objects, and conjure a literal storm in the sky. Luna’s magic abilities have the potential to be greatly misused and cause great harm - even oppress an entire kingdom.
However, ever since her NMM corruption was purged, she has been a ‘good’ pony (I personally believe she’s closer to neutral, but angles toward ‘good’ when a great evil emerges). Perhaps her NMM corruption was caused by her trying to find ways to wield her powers in a harmful way.
Meanwhile, Celestia is ‘very good’. While it’s obvious that she has done horrible things in the past and has skeletons in her closet, she does what she can to be an example to others. At the same time, she’s also demonstrated that she can wield the same ominious magic that Sombra uses, and yet remains unaffected. Perhaps the frequency of usage is key, which is where striking the balance is critical.
Twilight could possibly strike a balance between the light and dark arts of the arcane. She’d run less of a risk to herself and others by finding a balance, and being versed in both accepted and taboo forms of magic would make her a fierce opponent, since a wholly evil threat’s spells would be recognised by Twilight and more effectively countered. Plus, Twilight would have less reservations with using darker magic to protect others.
For Twilight Sparkle, this could mean that she must learn to harness both “light” and “dark” magic in order to establish a balance, a harmony, between the two opposites.
Ow!
