Hmmm...part of that question seems to me something that should be addressed in terms of time line from the show; this is 1000 years after the end of mass effect but is it also exactly a 1000 years from the most recent episode of MLP? What kind of evolution has pony kind undergone in that time period? Perhaps Alicorns are far more common now to the point that they are a small 4th species. They wouldn't have princess powers, but would be about average in all 3 areas of pony abilities? Just a thought

As for an Alicorn's presence in this game it seems necessary given pony culture and history. Perhaps a recently minted princess is given the role of liason/representative. It would make sense to me that the greater forces of equestria would lead a pony to that destiney as it clearly did for cadence and twilight.

As for the magic...that, for me at least, comes back to what the MLP time line is. I could see 1000 years from present MLP with them being a space fairing race, that their understanding of magic has jumped leaps and bounds ( I'd even assume their space vessels work on a combination of magic and tech ) to the point where unique forms of magic have been developed for the earth and Pegasus ponies. But if this is recently after the latest episodes I'd say it would be unlikely such drastic magical advancements have happened.

Well, i wouldn't say a full thousand years, the premise of the sudden interest in Equestria is the detection of the vast amounts of magic put out during the season 4 finale, leading to a lot of interest in this 'new form of energy', i could assume a couple hundred years or so, it'd have to be a time range where they could have inter-galactic sensory capability set up that would detect the sudden phenomena, the following years could have been spent searching for and setting up a dedicated mass relay to instigate return travel from the system in question, accounting for a delay until the council finally sent someone to investigate safely, some basic info may already be known about the planet, stuff gained from preliminary scans while they were setting things up for a 'return' trip.

That could work =D though why not a prince?!... hrm, sorry, i have this thing about the intense imbalance between genders that is present both inside and outside of canon xD Hrm, i'm not actually against the gender for that, i may just flip a coin to decide!... but yes, that could certainly make sense, again, similar to Anderson's role throughout mass effect XD

that could come back to the same 'throw in a couple centuries to feasibly connect both sides of the events together thing.

Thanks btw =D you are helping me iron out these details in my brain!
