Rule 63 is Magic

Remind me to do these kinds of things on PAPER first!

So yeah... :icontrotsworth: is quite famous for Rule 63 MLP (Friendship is "Manly" XD), but he hasn't quite done a Discord yet. *Trolltrolltroll*

This is my concept and I might ask him for advice. So far I'm pleased, but I don't think it's anywhere NEAR as good as what he'd do.

And the apple says "To the Fairest". Those of you who know your mythology, I salute you!

For those who don't...I am disappoint.

Basically, there was a wedding between a mortal man and Posidon's nymph daughter (who would later become the parents of Achilles, who would lead the Greeks to victory against Troy and set up the basis for every other hero) that all the Gods were invited to, except for Eros, the goddess of Discord ('eeeey!).
To spite them, she threw a golden apple into the crowd that said "to the fairest". Who found it? Aphrodite, Hera, and Artemis. Of course, they all started bickering and chose Paris , the handsomest mortal on earth, to choose who would take the apple. Hera promised him wealth, Artemis promised him war prowess, and Aphrodite promised the most beautiful woman in the world. Paris was the Prince of Troy, so he already had wealth. He wasn't much of a warrior, nor did he care to be. So, naturally, Aphrodite won the apple. She took him to Sparta, where the most beautiful woman in the world resided. He was warmly welcomed by the king Menelaus, to whom the woman was married. And then he ran away with Helen. And that's how the Trojan war began.

And now, you illiterate Diamond Dogs now. Of course, I can't look at it the same way again now that I imagine the MLP Discord tossing a golden apple over a hedge :XD:
:iconmlpdiscordplz: : For not inviting me to a wedding, thousands of mortals will wage war for ten years with no decent reason at all!

But yeah...I couldn't resist drawing Discord63 with the golden apple because I associate Discord both with Ponies and the "Origin of the Trojan War".

Eros? Do you mean Eris?
