This was the fateful moment in time when King Sombra, of Ask King Sombra, was defeated with the power of the Crystal Heart. A great many Tumblrs included or referenced the event, as it meant the popular long-running blog was nearly over.

The Somboom

Hey ! Even if I’m late I’m made a little vidéo on my channel for “the beam seen through the multiverse” (but the video is in french because I’m french.) here the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qATn5FTS1vw

I still have to say that I love your art and I will follow your work !

AHHH THANK YOU! I don’t speak french so I don’t understand exactly what’s going on but through the MAGIC OF CONTEXT CLUES I got the gist! I have a friend that does speak french who I bugged to translate for me buuut if anyone else there wants to toss me a translation, I’d super appreciate it! IT HAS ENGLISH SUBTITLES NOW NEVER MIND

EITHER WAY THANK YOU. man, you went and did an actual video with like SPECIAL EFFECTS AND EVERYTHING. LOVE IT.

also fun fact: before you added the translation I definitely tried to just translate the automatic close captions and the results were NOT CORRECT.

Dear @ask-king-sombra

I saw your light, sir. I was having tea with friends at the time. So pretty against the sky it was. Magical discharges like that usually mean there’s somepony as is having their backside handed to them. I came as soon as I was able. They asked me why, you know. They said that they only use the crystal heart on bad guys.

The way I see it, bad guys are just good guys who didn’t have a friend at their side when they needed one. So I always try, just in case I can be that friend.

I’m afraid like it looks as though I’ve arrived a little too late as to make a difference in your story. But that’s not to say I can’t leave things a little nicer than I found them.

And when alls said and done, I’ll keep this for later in case you’ll be needing it again. It was a pleasure, sir. I’m sure I’ll be seeing you again some time.

Thank you for sharing your light

~Spades.

((okay, okay, I saw everyone else doing the somboom thing and I had to... @ask-king-sombra has been a personal favorite of mine for a while now, so I wanted to jump on this little bandwagon))
