Spitfire getting down to business S3E7 by DangerCloseArt 
At 0948, on the morning of September 1st this year, 1st Lt. Fleetfoot and myself, accompanied by Princess Luna came in contact with OpFor HVT designation, November Tango aka: Night Terror

We don't know much yet about this... this monster, but it would seem Chrysalis, Queen of the Changelings has fused with the Nightmare demon. Yes, the same demon which corrupted Princess Luna nearly a millenia ago. 

It's a mystery as to how or where the Nightmare could have returned, or if this fusion was voluntary, or by force.

But it--or should I say "their" conscious seems to be one in the same. An unholy but harmonious union of everything we've feared. 

Historic texts recount that the Nightmare demon had the ability to augment its host, amplifying their powers, and form. I dare not imagine what this could mean for a Changeling Matriarch. 

It appeared as if the fusion was not without compromise, however. Our reports estimate that the Queen would have been very weak with hunger upon any recent fusion. As a result, her then brittle chitin exoskeleton appeared, as what I could only describe, as fractured. Cracked along lengths of her body, the bright magical energy of the Nightmare could be seen glowing from within. 

Despite whatever damage the violent fusion has incurred on the Queen, her Changeling body has showed signs of increased rigidity.

The iconic Changeling "cheese holes" as we've come to call here in the Academy, have been reinforced by what appeared to be armored chitin plates. Again, the Nightmare energy can be seen glowing from underneath these plates, most likely exposed from said "cheese-holes". 

Her fibered wasp like wings have been replaced with massive dragon-esque wings. 

Her chitin armor also appears to be modular and maneuverable, capable of folding over her neck and face in a sort of blast shield.  This completely protects but obscures her face and eyes.  The Nightmare magic must be granting her some type of sensory ability to maintain her vision, but this has yet to be confirmed. 

And most notable of all, is that the Queens' Changeling tail has solidified into a long and incredibly powerful and deadly appendage. She has tremendous dexterity with it, as much as a snake, and it is tipped with a spear like mass. Watch your six, flyers...a magical blast is not her only point of attack now.

I apologize, but this is all the information I have for now. But take what you can. 

We are facing a new threat, flyers. 

Remember:
Knowledge is power.
Power is change.
And change is victory.

Dismissed.

Thought I'd do a little Spitfire RP debriefing after the reveal of my Chrysi-Nightmare fusion Twilight (Squee) Plz 

The context of this debrief isn't chronologically canon of course with the timeline of my story. But Spitfire's report is as accurate as she can account for. 

Artist's note:
So for some reason, Photoshop hates me, or rather just Paint SAI and doesn't support luminosity. But I needed PS in order to draw those changeling swarm effects. 
As such, here's my original with alternative lighting, sans swarm effect.
