So while doing the new Diadem, my girlfriend came across a really cool sight. In Astrope's description it says that he is the size that he is because he's an adult pegasus, which means that the new Diadem apparently houses some adult unicorns.


We both thought this was a really neat (and cute) find. It's nice to see that Astrope finally fits in somewhere.

For reference, here's Astrope next to a regular Pegasus mount


(edit)And then Selli's friend Lou found an even bigger pegasus with no horn, which makes astrope irrelevant again, lol.

Pretty sure the horn is just part of the Barding

"The emergent studies of winged horses had to be rewritten with a single sighting of Astrope, confirming that adult pegasi are not only enormous in size, but also possessed of a horn... "

No. It's not.

I take the EN flavor text with a grain of salt. it tends to do its own thing, so I never trust it to be accurate.

I may be ESL, but my first language isn't an option for this game, so the only thing I have to go off is what is presented in English. If you happen to know the description in other languages, feel free to correct me. I've never bothered to Google translate them as I don't trust it to be accurate either.

The Japanese text simply states it takes a long time for it to grown big enough for 2 people, and that its a ferocious beast and only opens up to devoted and kind hearted people. makes no mention of a horn. I fear the EN text is incorrect and the horn is simply barding. but alas we may never know.

Have these two always been at The Forgotten Knight? Or am I just crazy?
Either way ran by them today cause I was picking up old AF3 gear.
