Now, here it comes the part that unfortunately didn´t happen in the show and I wish we got more material about these two characters. For once, Cadence and Shining Armor manage to get some spotlight for themselves. These are the moments that the fan can warm up with them beyond implying that they were introduced for selling toys. I mean, they´ve got their episodes after all but always with a secondary role. So, both Cadence and Shining Armor are the medium and the ones who manage to give Nahmat a chance, especially Cadence because she hadn´t witnessed the jerky moment. So in this moment, one of the messages coming from this whole comic is that ponies are so full of magic that they don´t even realize, hence they use it in a more inconsequential way and they don´t even notice that said excess made them numb at noticing how much quantity the land of Equestria has. Then, the magic that cannot be corrupted (by Gralo after revealing himself) is located in the place that ponies feared for so long during the first seasons: the Everfree Forest. That scary mysterious place has been infamous because ponies have been adapting so much their own ecosystem that for them, facing a natural forest looks really menacing for them. In the show, throughout the entire gen, you can see that the more it advances, the more the characters go through it to the Castle of the Two Sisters without being a big deal for them, it slowly becomes a normal forest to cross for them (from season 4 onwards) So, Nahmat serves as the main character to illustrate to the ponies how Earth´s physics and nature work, teaching both the couple and the two royal sisters the power of Insight. In her planet, as magic is more scarce, Nahmat is capable to see it but ponies don´t because of the overwhelming excess of magic (I digress a little bit here but I suppose that CB anon meant with Earth Ponies having magic, like AJ kicking the apple trees and thus, all the apples fall at once without doing anything else). It clearly shows that this comic was written in the early era because of the references of A Canterlot Wedding, The Best Night Ever, the opener (FiM) and the Return of Harmony (among other integrated elements like the stare from the Stare Master, or Pinkie´s sense in Feeling Pinkie Keen)
