Nah. People are never aware of their confirmation bias. People can’t get that the three tribes in g5 are enemies. People assume the status quo of g5 is hunkie dori like g4 when the narrative clearly states since foalhood, all ponies are led to believe the other tribe is the enemy. Even Izzy herself stated she knows this later on but decides to disrespect this status quo anyway. That’s the problem.
People see these characters through rose tinted glasses but when someone disagrees with their confirmation bias, they lose their shit. Then someone posted Izzy should learn a lesson about personal space. Guess the rose tinted glasses lost its tint, huh?

So basically the mlp version of a force ghost then?
Yes, it is possible. The Unity Crystals are very important, because they not only symbolize the three pony tribes, return magic to the ponies, they chose Sunny as the future alicorn (who seems to be inhibited by her emotions) and the successor to Twilight, they are linked to the magic in all the ponies by receiving internal emotional magic from individuals - and releasing pony-related magic into the dimension with Equestria. Sometimes it seems like they are alive with their own consciousness, as seen when they responded to Sunny’s friendship talk with the pony leaders. And they react to magical imbalance, emotional negativity and have a clear connection with Sunny who does not yet know it herself.
The Unity crystals act as a door between dimensions, and when corrupt magic arose, a portal was opened to an unidentified dimension where ponies can survive, and from where the earth pony magic came out to the lighthouse, from there it spreads to all earth ponies. Zipp had a point when she asks where the magic came from, and we know here that the magic comes from the ponies themselves in G4, but that they are also connected - as seen with the elsewhere when Twilight became an alicorn. It’s as if the magic had been channeled through the Unity crystals in front of all the ponies, and if Twilight had done this, why? And more importantly, how?
The case of Discord and the pegasi crystal, the fact that the Unity crystals are very important and linked to Twilight’s fate, may indicate that the Mane 6 - Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy - are involved. The cover of # 1 is possibly more than just showing the generational change from Mane 6 to Mane 5. We know from MYM special that the mysterious alicorn wants pony magic, but that the crystals denied her, and these refused to be activated when these are put together , only when Sunny spoke a language Mane 6 understands.
It seems that the Mane 6 is watching over the future and the Mane 5, and Sunny will probably find out even if only Twilight will meet her and maybe only once. If Discord learns about it, and thus listens to Sunny, it can make him feel joy. For Fluttershy is still not gone.
But an external force is still out there, we do not know why the pony magic had become so unstable.

Very interesting, so Discord has become old as I had assumed based on the evidence that has come so far, and become mentally unbalanced after Fluttershy’s death - which is now probably confirmed as the first of the Mane 6’s deaths. And the cover of # 6 suggests that Twilight may be dead, but it seems that her feathers are a sign that Sunny is her successor, and that the Unity Crystals are linked to the Mane 6.
Could it be that the Mane 6 and the Unity Crystals are magically linked? We saw Rainbow Dash`s “signature” when the magic was released in the movie. And there are many indications that the crystals are a kind of “door” that can lead to the place from which the magic came to the ponies. Maybe Mane 6 after their death has ascended to the elsewhere and the crystals may be the way to them. That may explain Discord’s state of mind and obsession.
This is very big. Twilight as alicorn can probably return, but probably only to help Sunny. And anyway, SOMETHING has happened, which makes Discord erratic, wiped out the middle Equestria, threw pony magic into extreme turbulence that may have driven the non-ponies to flee, and ensured that the ponies suffered collective memory loss.
This is more than Discord and Mane 6.
Let’s hope so.

If the leaks from the game code are true
Basically Discord went full Wanda after Fluttershy’s death, and is looking for a way to bring her back.

I’ve seen the “leaks” but it doesn’t make any sense to me. Why would Discord need the crystals to resurrect Fluttershy? He can do that on his own and I don’t think Discord would bring Fluttershy back to life. That would make Fluttershy sad. Even though it looks like Discord wants do destroy magic for good I don’t think his intentions are evil. This arc is clearly about coping with grief and loss. My guess is that Sunny and her friends will “heal” Discord instead of banishing him or whatnot. Sunny can understand some of Discord’s pain because she also lost someone important to her.
