*Spoilers for those who haven't seen the finale or the season 8 animatic*

A weird thought occured to me after watching the finale. You know that small season 8 promo picture that was released a while back, with Twilight standing in front of a new castle-like location with a bunch of new characters? Well, in the season 8 animatic (which is probably from ep1) Chrysalis takes photos of the mane 6 and walks out of that same building.

When I saw it I assumed maybe the Pony of Shadows might destroy Twilight's Castle or something and this would take its place in the finale but that didn't happen. So now I'm wondering what is this place exactly, if it already exists in the next episode. It could also be that the animatic lied but that doesn't seem likely. I guess it's just a random new location, but the promo picture made it seem important.
