Would that mean that anybody could do the spell, or what it require the right pony or amount of magical ability to do them?

It would require somebody with the right abilities and training. So either a top surgeon, or Twilight with a degree in neurosurgery.

Ever since “Magic Duel” and the [SPOILER], I’ve debated whether to change the way magic was theorized to work in PC.

Instead of the “works as is” mentality, I’m changing it to “adapts and combines.”

Meaning that magic can infinitely do anything, as long as the right spells are found, cooked up, or written. In PC, this means that AS (the formally magical wing disease that Scoots an Rumble have) is no longer definitely incurable. The cure is simply yet to be found, and real treatments can now be tested.

On that note, I’ll explain what happened to Rumble in Manehattan, since I rushed through that too fast.

Basically, a surgeon approached Thunderlane while he was waiting from Rumble who was getting his stomach pumped. He explained the situation with Rumble’s wings, saying that now is the opportunity to enter a testing trial for a treatment for AS. It involved an WIP spell-combo, and a wing reconstruction. Naturally, being the good brother, Lane approved it.

I’ll need to draw about that soon. And I will.
