I've just realised there's an attack on Canterlot directly referenced in that one that we don't see or hear about anywhere else.<br /><br />We can date it roughly based on Professor Inkwell's age; in the present day she looks at least as old as Granny Smith (who we've previously put at somewhere around 100 years old), and in the flashback to the battle she looks to be at least the Mane 6's age (presumed 20-ish), probably a little closer to 30. That would put the attack on Canterlot at around 70 BF.<br /><br />Thoughts?</div>

All told, for an empire of pretty pastel ponies, Equestria is actually quite a dangerous place to live. If the periods before (Sombra, Discord, Tirek and Scorpan, Windigos, probably a bunch more) and after (every villain under the sun/moon) Luna's banishment are anything to go by, Celestia's solo rule would've been quite a handful too.</div>

	  <div class="content">On my second run through the Journal now, making notes this time. I'll copy-paste a few of the more interesting things I've come across:<br /><br /><blockquote class="uncited"><div>Celestia says something interesting about the coronation. She notes that being crowned Princess beside Luna &quot;almost felt like something I'd lived before... like deja vu.&quot; She goes on to talk about playing Princesses with her sister back in Canterlot, but it'd be kinda weird for that to be what she meant with the deja vu remark. Deja vu typically refers to a feeling of familiarity you can't pin down, not clearly remembering when you play-acted something as a child. Could be nothing, but it caught my eye.</div></blockquote><br /><blockquote class="uncited"><div>Also interesting hearing Celestia talking about age. She mentions the feeling of being &quot;...surrounded by so many ponies who have their cutie marks and are so much younger than we are&quot;, which is interesting phrasing. &quot;So much younger&quot; implies quite a gap, and typical cutie mark age seems to be between 10 and 15 for regular ponies. So for the ponies Celestia is refering to have their cutie marks and still be &quot;so much younger&quot; than Celestia and Luna, the sisters would have to be biologically in their twenties at the very least, right? Possibly even much older?</div></blockquote><br /><blockquote class="uncited"><div>The plot thickens. Luna talks about searching for where to put their new castle in her next entry, mentioning a desire for somewhere quiet and remote. The Everfree forest is mentioned, and Luna soon discovers the Tree of Harmony within, not knowing at the time what it is (besides something powerful and significant).<br /><br />We soon learn that Star Swirl already knows what the tree is (Celestia too, though she has always assumed it to be a legend). This is becoming suspicious now. Star Swirl knowing about the tree wouldn't be questionable on its own, but given that it was also Star Swirl who told the sisters about the Everfree Forest in the first place makes it start to smell like a deliberate sequence of events. <br /><br />Star Swirl found the sisters. Star Swirl made them Princesses. Star Swirl led them to the Tree of Harmony. Star Swirl encouraged them to build their castle above it. He evens drops some shady hints about how building close to the tree will help them &quot;protect Equestria&quot;. He really seems to know exactly what do and when to do it, does old Star Swirl.</div></blockquote><br /><br />Lots of interesting little bits in this book!</div>

Scootaloo having a Rainbow Dash infatuation became a thing to allow the plot of Cutie Mark Chronicles to drive forward. Filly Applejack was first written as prissy as modern Rarity. Aunt &amp; Uncle Orange got their names so Lauren could make an Apples &amp; Oranges joke. The No Laughter, No Joy, Only Rocks was a gag Larson threw into the outline that made it all the way and drew a 'hahaha!!!!' with 4 exclamads from Lauren.<br /><br />Scootaloo originally quoted Dickens right before Cutie Mark Crusaders Zipliners. Rarity's school play was going to be about the pony food groups which is why they are in bedazzled food costumes.<br /><br />And, most importantly, 'We better harvest the rocks from the north field tomorrow.

	  <div class="content">Quite a few updates since the last time I posted here. In light of the impending release of EG2, I've gone and re-examined some of the Sunset Shimmer stuff in an attempt to be more complete. I've accepted by this point that the production team are weaving EG and FiM quite closely together, so it looks like I'll have to follow suit!<br /><br />I've also updated the layout a little, and started bringing some pictures in. I've also added an explanation on how the Era system works at the bottom, which I think might actually be more confusing than helpful  <img src="./images/smilies/twiI.png" alt=":-I" title=":-I" class="reimg" onload="reimg(this);" onerror="reimg(this);" /> <br /><br />As always, feedback and suggestions are very welcome (<span style="font-weight: bold">particularly regarding the Sunset Shimmer stuff, at the moment</span>).<br /><br />Check it out here: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/165HiA4rvdFF9KgCLnikqv-hSnSiU_uHZRJwD3-vba8s/edit?usp=sharing" class="postlink" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/document/d/165HiA4rvdFF9KgCLnikqv-hSnSiU_uHZRJwD3-vba8s/edit?usp=sharing</a></div>

So, it looks like Sunset leaves the picture before Twilight gets her Cutie Mark, meaning she's not Celestia's student yet.</div></blockquote><br /><br />Good spot! There's a little wiggle room to be had in that time period - we see Twilight hanging out with Cadance and Shining before Sunset gets the boot, but a period of &quot;weeks&quot; pass before we actually see the aforementioned booting. That's certainly a long enough period of time for Twilight to have gotten her cutie mark in, if we had a reason to believe that might be the case.<br /><br />I thought I was on to a really good theory regarding Twilight's early life (as I'm working towards nailing down when she and the others got their marks), but a closer look at Canterlot Wedding Part 1 just kinda killed it. I had it in my head that the timeline went like this:<br /><br />1) At some point before the events of the &quot;Neigh Anything&quot; comic, Twilight is foal-sat by Cadance for the first time.<br />2) Cadance and Shining meet up, and some of the events of &quot;Neigh Anything&quot; occur. We know at this point that Twilight doesn't have her cutie mark yet and is still living with her parents.<br />3/4) Sunset Shimmer is dismissed by Princess Celestia <br />3/4) Twilight Sparkle gains her cutie mark and becomes Celestia's student. Twilight then moves into a room in Canterlot Castle as a kind of boarding-student, where Cadance continues to occasionally foalsit her.<br />5) This ultimately leads to the start of FiM, where Twilight seems to be living on-campus at the Castle with Spike.<br /><br />3 and 4 are difficult to place at the moment. Anyway, the big killer was this:<br /><br /><img src="http://i.picpar.com/Goeb.jpg" alt="Image" class="reimg" onload="reimg(this);" onerror="reimg(this);" /><br /><br />To me, that looks a lot like Twilight moving into a room in the Castle. She has a chest of her stuff, she appears to be unpacking Smarty Pants... it all made sense! Only problem? No cutie mark. If she'd had her mark there, it all would've fit.</div>

	  <div class="content">I think that and mainly because they have direct control over the length of days and season. Why would they make a day a 24 hour peroid? Or if you could control the number of days in a year why have it at an odd number like 365? Any reasonable culture would use a more semantic number system like having 100 days in a year or even 1000 days. It would be easier to count that way... <img src="./images/smilies/pinkieshrug.png" alt=":pinkieshrug:" title="*shrug*" class="reimg" onload="reimg(this);" onerror="reimg(this);" /></div>

I'd forgotten that the Sirens mention Equestria, so that definitely shifts events past the federation of the tribes. I like your thinking about the placement too; I'll shift this one to the point between the founding of Equestria and Celestia and Luna's coronation.<br /><br />Thanks for the thoughts, folks!</div>
