So apparently there are lands faraway from the current conflict that run on different genre rules.(Back there his habit of setting his ships on fire is charming!)
Seahawk sailed into the wrong genre, or heck even a different culture of storytelling.
Does anyone know/have any theories why Entrapta is the only princess without a magic rock thing?
Cause like- that sounds fake ya know? I feel like she just doesn’t know about it? Probably cause she doesn’t know her parents either (given that her family picture as a child is with robots she likely built herself).
And since she doesn’t know it exists she doesn’t have a connection with it (which we know is possible given Scorpia doesn’t have a connection with hers either)
She does mention, specifically, that upsetting the balance of the Runestones or destroying them would depower the ‘elemental’ Princesses, then says that she doesn’t have one.
She doesn’t seem to be the only one- I suspect Nettossa and Spinetta (might be misspelling or misremembering their names) are Runestone-less, too; otherwise, having them in the Rebellion from the start would be a bigger deal, and Glimmer and Bow would probably have a better idea what they do to begin with.
Plus, take the Princess Prom and its attendees; even if a full half of them are just Plus Ones, that still looks like more Princesses than can account for how many Runestones can fit on the planet, according to Entrapta’s model.
Hope this helps! Guess we’ll have to see!
I hadn’t thought about the princess prom honestly! But that totally makes sense! I just kinda assumed you didn’t have to be a princess to be invited? Mostly from Frosta’s saying something like “she’s a princess so by the rules she can’t be kicked out without cause” or something like that about Scorpia. I assumed that since Frosta was the host she had invited other people and by the rules /had/ to invite all the princesses too.
Then again this brings up a really cool question of what a princess even is. Cause Glimmer is a princess and isn’t a ruler of a kingdom. So that’s not the defining characteristic. We can assume that neither is magic since neither Scorpia nor Entrapta do any magic. Nor is being connected to a Runestone. But Runestone’s are also shown to be able to connect to more than one person (Queen Angella and Glimmer) at the same time.
Also about Netossa and Spinnerella – while they aren’t shown to be connected to a Runestone they do have powers which is interesting too cause powers supposedly come from Runestones (Glimmer needing to recharge, Adora transforming only with the sword).
Maybe the same Runestone can give powers to various people at once – with the central holder of power (Queen Angella, Mermista, Perfuma, ect) being the Elemental Princesses? Making Etheria work sort of like a feudal system? Where the Monarch (Elemental Princesses) have a working agreement with their Lords (other princesses who get magic from Elemental Princesses runestone)? That could explain the big number of princesses at the ball!
He totally would work as a cyborg super-soldier of the horde who betrays them to become a firefighter for the rebellion. I know its kind of a younger-character focused series but seeing an adult who’s decided to work to make sure no more generations of children again goes through what he did could be powerful.
(Did anyone else note that the adults and minors in the horde work side by side as troopers? That’s an interesting dynamic to explore.)
And works with my suspicion that later season will Have the horde acting more desperate and experimenting on their soldiers after too many losses.
To make things worse, lets make him be a father-figure to Kyle before he defects.
Its a gray area as the cartoon doesn’t have rights to He-man characters, but Snout-Spout first appeared in the She-Ra cartoon because the He-Man cartoon was over when his toy came out.
I will laugh if it turns that part of the reason Glimmer was so upset at prom is because she doesn’t know what romance is and think dating is just about friendships or political alliances.
She’s been focused on the rebellion and avoids talking to her mother. Its entirely possible.
Imagine how secretly relieved Angella had to have been when
she realized that her daughter’s powers were just teleportation and making
pretty lights. Not much risk of her get mixed up in anything dangerous with
abilities like those after all!
…Cue Glimmer teleporting her way into a Horde camp and smacking
people upside the head with sparkles
