《我的小马驹：友谊就是魔法》第100期（英语：My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic #100），又名第十季第十二集（英语：Season 10 Episode 12）以及The Elements of Love，[1]是IDW出版社的《我的小马驹：友谊就是魔法》系列具有里程碑意义的第一百期。这是“第十季”漫画系列的第十二期双倍篇幅漫画，发生在正剧的第九季第25集之后。漫画中，云宝黛茜、西拉诺船长和她们的朋友前往了鸟族王国。西拉诺曾经的友谊遭到了考验，而新的神秘敌手正潜伏于阴影中。
概要
漫画从云宝黛茜、西拉诺船长、飞火、天琴心弦和糖果到达西拉诺的家乡Ornithia开始，这是一个筑在高山间的王国，居住着多种拟人化鸟类。此时王国正在筹办一场皇家婚礼，而新娘正是西拉诺的儿时好友。城堡内，小队发现了第五棵谐律之树，上面有皇室家族的六把王座，其中五把都泛着光。四把王座上分别坐着King Thaumas、Queen Ozomene、Prince Aello和Aello的妻子Zephyra。
这时准新娘Ocypete公主进来热情地和西拉诺打招呼，还向小队介绍了她的未婚夫Prince Huginn。在看见西拉诺和一群小马在一起后，Huginn迅速找借口离开，引起了天琴和糖果的怀疑。云宝黛茜和她的朋友们问了Ocypete一连串有关谐律之树和发光王座的问题，她就带着她们去了地下的一座神庙，同时天琴和糖果去监视Huginn。
Ocypete解释说Ornithia的谐律精华被具体称为“Elements of Love”——慷慨、善良、希望、守护、信任、和坚毅——需要三对彼此相爱的鸟才能使其运作。她还提到暮光闪闪的朋友们在之前的漫画中找到的每一套谐律精华都代表不同的关系或联结——Love、Family、History、Purpose和Patriotism——而六主角的精华代表传说中的第六种联结。Ocypete接着讲述了“Knights of Harmony”的故事。
多年以前，在海岛王国Cunabula上居住着两个皇室家族，每个家族都有三个子女——最初的六位Knights of Harmony。骑士们认定外界正充满混乱与纠纷，于是来到世界各地将谐律带给其他生灵和土地。他们在沙漠王国法拉希找到并帮忙培育了Tree of History，在钻石猎犬的王国Caninia培育了Tree of Family，在猫族王国阿比西尼亚培育了Tree of Purpose，在Ornithia培育了Tree of Love。每棵树都有一个对应的神庙，而神庙通过一个有着五盏灯的台座相连接。只要它们的精华还能发挥能力，灯光就不会熄灭。然而，随着时间流逝，那些灯开始一个接一个熄灭。当时的女王相信是其它神庙都遭受了袭击，而Ornithia就将成为下一个，于是赶紧下令将城市隐藏在群山之中，但他们的灯还是熄灭了。最终，只剩下了一盏亮着的灯，Ornithia未曾遭受袭击，而Knights of Harmony也再无音迹可寻。
在暮光的朋友们近期的努力下，灯光开始逐个回归，所以Ornithia决定紧接着让Elements of Love被重新激活，这就需要让Ocypete结婚。西拉诺将Ocypete带到一边和她私下交谈，留下云宝和飞火继续探索神庙。与此同时，天琴和糖果在城堡中潜行，来到Huginn的私鸟房间，探听到他在低声下气地和某位交谈。当Huginn问他那神秘的长官要如何处置西拉诺和她的朋友时，他们发现了正在监视他们的天琴和糖果。
在另一边，西拉诺告诉Ocypete她不能嫁给一个她根本就不爱的鸟。Ocypete争辩说随着日子一天天过去，她会渐渐学着去爱Huginn，同时还指责西拉诺一声不吭离开家，独自当上了她们两个都一直渴望成为的空贼。西拉诺说当时她将计划告诉了Ocypete的父亲King Thaumas后，他就贿赂还威胁她独自离开。尽管知道了真相，Ocypete仍然坚持要承担职责，完成婚礼并保护Ornithia，随后离开了西拉诺。西拉诺重新思考起自己的行为，这时听到有谁在接近，以为是Ocypete回来了。但突然间她遭到了攻击昏迷过去。
回到神庙中，云宝竭尽全力想破译那些壁画，希望暮光能帮上忙。当她去叫身后的飞火时，没有得到任何回应，她自己随即也被击昏过去。不久后，西拉诺在自己飞船的甲板上醒来，她的小马朋友都在旁边昏迷不醒，而飞船正从空中急速坠落。西拉诺迅速给天琴和糖果装备降落伞，让她们降落到安全地带。然后自己带上云宝黛茜和飞火，赶在飞船撞上地面之前离开甲板落地。
等到小马们都清醒过来后，她们和西拉诺试着弄清发生的一切以及Huginn和他神秘长官的企图，猜测婚礼是一切的中心。云宝和飞火带着西拉诺飞回Ornithia尝试阻止婚礼，西拉诺在她们的帮助下冲进城堡，正来到婚礼现场。西拉诺向Huginn发起决斗，而云宝和飞火随后赶到拖住了卫兵。西拉诺声明尽管Huginn使出了阴谋诡计，她也“不会轻言放弃”，而第六个王座此时在她面前亮起了光芒，不仅揭示她就是坚毅元素的代表，还表明了她对Ocypete的真实感受。
Huginn认输后，西拉诺要求他说出他长官的身份。当Huginn因害怕他长官的强大力量不敢答应时，他的长官突然就露面了：Cunabula的Ceridwen公主以及现任Knights of Harmony的一员。按照她国王的意愿，Ceridwen宣布小马国将化为焦土。她用她的魔法让Huginn疯狂变大，以此摧毁Ornithia，然后传送离开。当西拉诺和Ornithia的皇室家族使用Elements of Love来阻止Huginn的持续巨大化时，云宝黛茜带着神庙中的一块壁画飞回小马国去警告暮光。
回到中心城，暮光、斯派克、星光熠熠、隙日、白胡子星璇和冥影在城堡图书馆中寻找有关其它谐律精华或神庙的信息，但一无所获。突然之间，云宝从窗口闯进来警告众马：The Knights of Harmony要来了。

语录
Captain Celaeno: Ponyfolk, welcome to Ornithia, the place I was born.
Rainbow Dash: Gosh, this is gonna be so cool!
Spitfire: I never had you nailed as the wedding type, Dashie.
Rainbow Dash: Not the wedding, Spitfire!
Rainbow Dash: Hey, you don't know anything about a Tree of Harmony here, do you, Celaeno?
Captain Celaeno: Well, if I were you, I'd look up.
Ocypete: I'm so happy to see you, my oldest friend.
Captain Celaeno: It's good to see you too, princess.
Prince Huginn: Ponies?!
Rainbow Dash: Mostly Pegasi, but yeah. Is that a problem?
Rainbow Dash: Can you tell us about that tree?
Ocypete: Oh, the Tree of Love? I'd be happy to! I've been studying it for years!
Ocypete: Do you all not know the myth of the Knights of Harmony? The stories say that they were the ones who built these temples. They taught the people of each realm how to use the Elements.
Rainbow Dash: Uh... I think ours were made by some old ponies that were gonna go fight a shadow pony and planted a seed.
Rainbow Dash: What do you think all these other carvings are about?
Spitfire: You got me.
Rainbow Dash: Dang! I need a nerd!
Captain Celaeno: Ocypete, you can't get married!
Ocypete: Did you just tell me what to do? You? Of all birds?
Captain Celaeno: Ossie--
Ocypete: Oh, now you remember I have a nickname.
Prince Huginn: Look at me, I'm molting. I'm losing my beautiful plumage because I'm so stressed out.
Ceridwen: Don't forget who gave you that beautiful plumage. Without me, you'd still be a scrawny alley crow.
Captain Celaeno: I told your dad that I thought you and I should explore the world. Help the kingdom reconnect. He said if I left without you, he'd give me my own ship. If I didn't, I'd wish I had.
Ocypete: I don't hear from you for years, and then you show up the day before my wedding and tell me not to get married?
Captain Celaeno: Ocypete, is that you?
Ceridwen: Guess again.
Captain Celaeno: We're going down! Dash! Lyra! Anycreature?! If I get to the wheel, maybe I can keep us from crashing. But if I don't stop it in time, all of my friends... Non-flying ponies first.
Captain Celaeno: The wedding! They must know if Ocypete marries that cowardly imposter, they'll never activate the Elements! There's no way we can get back there in time.
Rainbow Dash: Actually, if we can borrow something from the ship, I think Spitfire and I can get you there.
Spitfire: Dash, I love the way you think!
Rainbow Dash: Lyra and Bonbon, sorry, you're gonna have to sit this one out.
Lyra Heartstrings: Fine by us.
Prince Huginn: How did you get here! You're supposed to be--
Captain Celaeno: Dead? Well... that might have been enough to stop me, if it was me I was fighting for. But I ran away when Ocypete needed me once before. I won't do it a second time.
Ocypete: You don't give up easy... Perseverance! You're the last element, Celaeno.
Prince Huginn: She found me in the street. I was ragged and molting. She said that if I did what she said, she would make me a prince. She made me handsome.
Ocypete: So you betrayed your country for a chance to have power?
Prince Huginn: No, she said it was the only way to save the kingdom. She said if the Elements were brought together, that she would be forced to destroy us.
Ceridwen: I am Ceridwen, princess of Cunabula and one of the new Knights of Harmony! And Equestria... The whole would should hate that accursed place for what it did to us! And now I shall be responsible for the first of Equestria's many dark days to come.
Ceridwen: [to Rainbow Dash] The next time you see Equestria, it will be a burning pile of rubble. And you will know that it was all. Your. Fault.
Queen Ozomene: Generosity!
King Thaumas: Protection!
Prince Aello: Kindness!
Zephyra: Trust!
Ocypete: Hope!
Captain Celaeno: Perseverance!
Twilight Sparkle: Rainbow Dash, are you okay?
Rainbow Dash: I made it. I got here before they did.
Twilight Sparkle: Who?
Rainbow Dash: They're coming. The Knights of Harmony are coming!
Sweetie Belle: Wait... Is this another one of those "work hard to accomplish your goals" things?
Rarity: Uh... yes?
Sweetie Belle: Hard pass. I'll wait to see if was born with natural talent.
