nightshroud96 Kind of a wasted potential in the story with what if some ponies did not like the fact the royal sisters were retiring.
Especially with Luna retiring since she was only back on the throne for a few years at best.
In fact I bet after Discord's iffy plan, it caused issues due to how things went badly for the royal sisters' last day on the job(to me, it felt like a bad sendoff for them in a way). It felt like the sisters ended their rules on a pretty bad note due to getting captured(AGAIN) and all they could do is just distract the trio(and could only deal with them AFTER the trio is powerless).
