#totw Which pony /should/ take over? Twilight is the only pony who would rightly belong in Celestia's place. Celestia herself will train her and hand over the reigns before ascending into whatever it is alicorns ascend into. Luna may follow her or she may remain to serve as an advisor for a limited time. If Twilight isn't ageless like her mentor she may train up a successor, but I like to think that she'd foresee how easily corrupted a monarchy is across generations so she may instead institute a system of higher and lower judges to take her place with checks and balances on power. Having briefly studied the government system of the human society which she visited at Equestria High, Princess Twilight will one day return to the alternate dimension and seek out additional information. With a more complete understanding of such a system and it's weaknesses as well as other human government alternatives, she'll improve upon the system and implement the resultant plan.
