[A dulled roar, as if within a massive crowd.]

Lyra: Okay. And you said I could post this too, right?

B: Sure.

Lyra: Alright! Take it away! Magic disabling! Go!

B: The notion of suppressing spell casting has been the subject of much research for nearly as long as spell casting has been around. There hasn’t been any real effective method up to this point. But it seems crystal ponies have created one. And it’s quite elegant. They used spell threading to weave together a complex Counterspell that sticks to the unicorn’s horn.

B: Now, a Counterspell wall isn’t a new concept. But crystal ponies took it so much further. They created a spell wall that seeks out sources of magic and wraps them in a Counterspell while leaving the rest of the subject unaffected.

B: It’s absolutely remarkable. If the Counterspell wrapped up the entire unicorn, then this would leave the subject in an unpleasant condition not far removed from being at a high altitude and breathing in thinner air. But because it targets only the source of magic- it’s the perfect solution to unwanted spell use for a public gathering. It could even be repurposed as a pacifying tool during riots or further, a non-fatal instrument of war.

B: That they created something so incredible such a short time after their return is simply astounding.
