Description
Finest Hour - Card Number 7: Zecora, Zebra Sage

“No, all it not lost yet, we still have a mean, to combat this threat!”

They all looked at Zecora.

“We have you, and you, and you. When you are all together, there is nothing you can’t do!”

Then Luna took the word.

“She is right. I can still remember back when Nightmare Moon was in control of me, and you stopped her. Sure, the elements were a part of it, but if it hadn’t been for your friendship, they would not have done anything. It was also not the elements that stopped Discord; it was you, Twilight, standing up for your friends when all seemed lost. And Shining Armor and Cadence did not need any elements to stop Chrysalis; their feelings were enough in itself.”

It took a while for them all to understand what Luna meant: The elements of harmony were never a “weapon” or a source of power in themselves, but merely a focus for emotional energies. Therefore, the elements were not entirely needed to stop the invasion; another focus could do as well.
