Discovering the Magic in Friendship Prologue pg 5

Here it is, page five is finally finished and the prologue is almost complete. How is the story so far, is it exciting or interesting, or maybe not so good right now? Leave a comment, let me know how I am doing so far with the art, I would appreciate the feedback. Go and see the colored version by blah23z and the other colorings for the prologue along with concept art for some of the characters.

Panel 1: Rapacity made his way to the throne room to finally confront Celestia....
Panel 2: But he set off the trap Celestia and Luna set up for him capturing him in a magical barrier.
Panel 3: The enslaved citizens were freed and led to shelter by guards.
Panel 4: Celestia sent the message to Twilight and her friends to release the magic from the Elements. They had to move quickly as the barrier trapping Rapacity will not last long against Rapacity's magic.
Panel 5:The magic was released and Equestria sank beneath the Earth taking Rapacity, Princesses Celestia and Luna, and the element bearers.
Panel 6: The amount of magic released and the power from that magic took its toll as it turned the element bearers to stone.
