What are "the stars" that "will aid in her escape"?
According to the book that Twilight reads about Nightmare Moon's return, "Legend has it that on the longest day of the thousandth year, the stars will aid in her escape..."
We see this onscreen momentarily later in the episode, when the four stars that were surrounding the moon fall in towards it just before Nightmare Moon escapes. But, what were these stars? How did they "aid in her escape"?
Three ideas, none of which AFAIK ties into any canon:
-
Perhaps they were sentinels that Celestia somehow set up?
-
Perhaps stars have a role in some magic?
-
Perhaps Nightmare Moon planted them there a thousand years ago, and Celestia was unable or unwilling to remove them and bind Luna in the moon forever?
