Talk:The Return of Queen Chrysalis/@comment-4964253-20150721184636

I find chrysalis' desire to exchange magical knowledge with twilight very interesting - "Queen Chrysalis : You. You will become  my  pupil.  My peer . The things we could learn from each other as we rule this land and the next. Kingdoms will fall at our hooves..."

This hints that a changeling can teach other creatures (granted they have the capability do to so) the way they do magic. Whether that magic covers shapeshifting spells up to love-feeding is up to your judgement, but regardless of the extent, changeling spells can be taught and learned.

Another is that the changeling, as a magical species, have the ability to learn from other magical creatures as well. Whether that ability covers all of its members or just a select few (e.g. queens) that ability is indeed present.

I can only say that as a species, changelings are more magically complex than I give them credit for.
