Twilight betrayed her own element, claims one entry.
"Ironically, Twilight's act even betrayed her own element: she chose the magic of the pearl, instead of friendship to convince the hippogriffs to help."
She didn't. She couldn't convince hippogrifs to help. They counted their own safety, and safety of the pearl above all else. Why DID Twilight tried to steal the pearl? She was desperate, and her friends only ever sung and danced, and did not pull any weight in the attempt to save Equestria.
