Trivia / The Shadow Shard

• What Could Have Been: The artist originally planned to give Cadance a scene talking to Spike trying to reassure him that Twilight does love him, but it was cut because she felt that the story was getting too complicated already. The scene was later revealed in the Deleted Scenes.
  • One of the Deleted Scenes includes Sunset Shimmer.
  • "The Epilogue" was meant to be 5 pages long, but the artist decided to release only a short dialogue between Spike and Celestia instead.
