Not only that, but I like to imagine that the tree’s roots are feeding off her magic - it’s a fitting twist, considering she tried to brute force that Together Tree into existence.

@Spiritus Arcane
I mean it’s possible but I don’t feel like that was implied, it could have just poofed her like the decorations the episode before or made a portal under her, but instead, it pulled her in so I think it’s more likely she’s been trapped inside.

Not hating on the idea of course, if you find her having been sent somewhere more interesting then more power to you, diversity in headcanon is always cool :)

@What-there-once-was
Do we know she’s trapped though? I mean, it was a magic PORTAL tree. For all we know it yoinked her cutie mark so it could lure her in to be teleported to a deserted island or something.

For real, Opaline, out of all MLP villains between G4 and G5 had the worst “worse than death” fate, all the others that got stuck somewhere were at least implied to be unconscious (i.e turned to stone, assumed to be asleep on the moon) but Opaline is shown to be conscious and aware inside the tree, she is stuck in a room only a little bigger than she is in the pitch black with most likely no sound getting in… Oh and she’s immortal, she will be stuck in there unable to even die with only her own thoughts and the dark for company.
she is all but guaranteed to go legit insane, people left in black rooms start hallucinating after only a day or two so if she ever gets out she might not even be “there” anymore after her mind retreats into an imaginary world as her brain tries to keep her from becoming a total vegetable… (Adds a note to AU world)
