Seriously?! Twilight would never betray Novo’s trust because she thought she’s doing the best she can to save Equestria from the Storm King’s wrath. And it seems possible that Queen Novo is a “red herring” to her daughter Skystar, Capper, Captain Celaeno and her pirate crew and herself. That’s because Capper’s home of Abyssinia was conquered by the Storm King and Capper and Chummer escape to Klugetown in the Bone Dry Desert, Captain Celaeno and her crew were enslaved by the Storm King as cargo haulers and the Storm King and his army destroy the kingdom of the Hippogriffs while trying to steal the Queen’s pearl and the populace escape to the underwater kingdom of Seaquestria.

Uh, she did, but they obviously cleared the air and reconciled after the Storm King’s defeat. Y’all know that time is linear, right?

@OliverSparkle
Well, Twilight and Novo did not have a fallout and it would have been awkward if the movie would have also had another argument scene between Novo and Skystar in a “Calling the Old Man/Woman Out” similarity to Ariel and King Triton in “The Little Mermaid”, Simba and Kiara in “The Lion King II: Simba’s Pride”, Manny and Peaches in “Ice Age: Continental Drift”, Merida and Queen Elinor in “Brave”, Miguel and Abuelita and/or Selena Quintanilla and her father Abraham in “Selena” after she falsely banished the Mane Six and Spike out of Seaquestria.

@Background Pony #214E
Yeah. But Twilight didn’t betrayed Novo’s trust because she was just trying to help. Also, the Mane Six, Spike and Skystar alongside Capper and the shy pirate parrots wouldn’t save Equestria from the wrath of the Storm King for Queen Novo.

I guess Novo and Celestia decided to call it even. Yes, Twilight betrayed her trust and tried to steal her valuable magical artifact, BUT she was just gonna leave the Equestrians to rot and also Twilight defeated the Storm King for them so yeah.

@OliverSparkle  
She’s had a little time to chill and consider what Twilight actually did for them. And I hardly blame her for being a little cranky at the end of the movie.

So Celly bows to Aspen. I wonder if she shows as much respect to the other rulers? Oh well, offstage and all I imagine.

They’re transpecies now.
 
Stop being bigoted you cis-speciesist.

Oh, now she’s nice?!

But…they’re hippogriffs who turned themselves into sea ponies.

Did your beak grow?  
And your claws and your bendy legs.
 
@Poison Trail  
I appreciate the continuity nod.

@kleptomage
 
Nobody.
 
The maid’s just been slacking off.

@kleptomage  
Pony version of Hagrid?

The giant spiders from the first arc are there too. Who invited them?

@Dustcan  
Oh, okay then, in that case then, I take back all the nasty things I ever said about Novo
 
She might even appear in season 8, if they have future plans for the new characters

@OliverSparkle
 
Next panel has Novo thanking Twilight for freeing her race from SK. So basically no hard feelings.

I thought those two had a fallout after what happened in the movie
 
Haven’t really watched the movie, I just read the script of it, and I don’t blame Twilight for what happened

@Itsthinking  
As a leader who puts her people first, she probably figured she might’ve done the same in Twilight’s place.

@Itsthinking
 
Taking the prequel book into account, Novo is willing to break her own rules if it means giving Skystar a friend.
 
Once again Pinkie saves the day and Twilight gets credit.

@Itsthinking  

 
Well, she still did get saved by them after she threw them out.

She got over that betrayal pretty quickly.
 
 
@Poison Trail  
This is a story about griffons primarily, though I don’t know how considering that they don’t have an organized ruler anymore.

Oh man, Aspen, this isn’t looking good already.
