In a bid to increase her already formidable power, Lissandra has directly assaulted Anivia herself. Though Anivia was badly injured in the fight, a magical miracle has saved her and brought both of these League champions to a land very much unlike their own.
Many new trials will present themselves to Anivia. Not the least of which will likely be herself as Lissandra's influence becomes a threat in this new world. And within the cryophoenix herself as well.
This is an MLP / League of Legends crossover fic. Now with 100% less Hecarim!
And since this apparently needs clarification, this story is NOT a crossover with the (amazing) Disney animated movie Frozen.
Character tags will be added as they become relevant.
If you like, dislike, or fave, please please please leave me a comment about what you liked or didn't like! It helps me to develop as a writer, and also helps me figure out what kinds of things you are all looking for in a story. Plus, knowing that people wanted to say something about my work gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside.

Lissandra, ponies, Blackfrost Anivia and no Hecarim? I will definitely be reading this later.

The lore inclusion. I love it.
I honestly hadn't expected anyone else to remember that Quinn visited each of the tribes during the Freljord event. It's nice to see someone else who reads the lore.
An interesting premise, though the reason for taking it to Equestria feels a bit forced. Then again, that seems to be par for the course in most of these stories.
Count me along for the ride.

Same thing happened to one of my stories.
I like it so far. The characters seem to be acting how they should, and I had to laugh at the thought of Anivia in a chicken coop.
Well done so far.

Interesting...
A story about one of my mains (before I said fuck mid lane). Interesting...
I truly hope this story continues. It has caught my attention.
I must ask you to take my yes. I may have more later.
Nice!
Celestia can apparently tell that Anivia is slowly being corrupted, but she doesn't seem to be taking the matter too seriously. I'm guessing that will prove to be a mistake.
I'm also hoping that Philomena might make an appearance at some point. It'd be interesting to see phoenixes of ice and fire interacting.
I really like your characterization of Anivia, but I'm kind of wishing we'd get to see a little more Lissandra. I also find it surprising that neither Anivia nor Celestia paid any attention to the black ice shard or the corruption of her mind.
Anyway, keep up the good work!

Not to worry. We'll be seeing more of Lissandra in the coming chapters. Think of this as her set-up time while she plans something bigger.

Sorry to disappoint you, but no. Though I'm beginning to think I should change the title of the story to reflect it's crossover source a bit more effectively. Thanks for commenting anyways.

Interesting.

I'm actually sort of hoping to get comments about the story that might help me with the whole writing process.
While I'm glad that you are enjoying it, just saying one word and adding an emoticon doesn't really help me that much.
I really don't mean to sound ungrateful or anything, I just wish that you would say a little more. Like, what about it interested you? What might happen later that you would find interesting? Just kind of throwing that out there.
Regardless, thanks for the comment I suppose.
Did Dash remind Anivia of Vi? 'Cause that's who she reminds me of.
No idea what Pinkie is doing, but that's hardly abnormal.

Nice chapter. Try using line rules or something like it to skip between narratives/scenes. It may be hard to see as a writer, but it helps the readers a lot.
4276827
But... I did use line breaks between narratives.
I'm beginning to think that between your comment, and my personal observation, I should see about using different things than the standard in-client line rule to separate things. The one provided by the in-site editor is truly rather pale.
Thanks for the comment. I think it may have actually helped me out.
Heh, wow, I really do like this! Hmm, what can I say about it...?
I think you went with a really nice setup, which was what had drawn me in at first. It kind of easened the reader into the story whether they knew the lore, knew only the champions or didn't know anything at all. For all it did, it was short and smooth, so I really gotta commend it! The pacing seems good so far, and no scene felt purposeless until now (Pinkie being Pinkie is very relevant to Anivia's development too xD). And being a League player myself, I felt the characters to be well-represented in this, especially Lissandra. I mean, it's hard to place a League champion in a different world, both in races and general ideology, and make them feel so natural, but I feel you nailed it for her. The cool demeanor, the wit, the acquirance and possible future manipulation of information, the potential for a personal unit or army of her own closing in... It's just top-notch stuff, really. Amazing job.
Now, is there anything I felt was odd? Hmm... Anivia felt a bit subdued, given how important she should know her task actually is and how regal of a creature she is as well, but I'm quite aware that she's the one who's trying to take the peaceful route in all of Freljord's madness and reconcile everyone, so she ought to have that side to her. But all I've seen her do or talk really does seem to fit in with her and make sense, so I'm not complaining. Hmm... Twilight had a bit of a strange reaction, in my opinion. I mean, she felt a pretty big disturbance, right? So great that Luna all the way on Canterlot picked up on it too and considered it warranted some actual investigation immediately. Given how paranoid Twilight is, I'd expect her to be less "Oh, a mystery, how cool is that?" and more like "Close the gates, hide everyone, get the Elements and let's investigate this!!". ... But I think that's just my interpretation of her in the end, so maybe you shouldn't mind me...
The last thing, though, is how the transitioning of scenes has been going. Maybe it's because I went through the chapters in a sitting rather than progress through them, but it felt weird to me. The first two chapters have similar progression: one big scene that happens and a small one to complement. The third one expands the second scene in play a bit, which is OK to do too (I myself am much more interested in Lissandra's side too, which is weird because I generally like Slice of Life stuff more). Now the fourth is short, and goes back and forth between the scenes. I realize you needed the transition between the crystal guard pony being converted into a servant of Lissandra's somehow, but that format felt a bit inconsistent with the previously established one. However, that's not to say that it doesn't work: it certainly might work if you keep with it from now on! Just calling a bit of attention to that because... I ramble. A lot. Sorry.
At this point, I'm quite certain you know more lore than I do, so I'm not gonna discuss that. xD So I'll just end with saying that you've been doing a really nice job with this and I'll keep watching out for this story! I'll probably not comment in every chapter, but I'll do so when I feel I have something new to add. Really nice work so far! Keep up the good work! ^^
'Murica 'Nivia is best 'Nivia.
It honestly doesn't surprise me at all that Pinkie would know about skins.
Of course they're stupid enough to send another search party.
Shining, you dun goofed.
Yay for Lissandra being evil, though. Random fun fact: in the game's universe, Lissandra is known to the League only as "The Ice Witch" in order to maintain her cover as the Frostguard leader. No one in Valoran associates Lissandra with the Ice Witch.

Good chapter!!! Really nice to see an update for this story.
4659644 Ding! Ding! Ding!
Someone give this person a cookie!
Glad you gave me a reason to come here now, because I'm very close to updating this story! Hopefully, I'll have the update ready sometime tomorrow afternoon/evening.
Random League Factoid of the Day: According to lore, a Champion at Level 18 with no Runes, Masteries or Items represents their power level outside of a League match.
Now I need to be careful to make sure my own "Lissandra in Equestria" story isn't too heavily influenced by this. I was already planning on her conquering the Crystal Empire >_>
A nice advancement if the storyline, but it kind of feels like Anivia isn't doing anything at the moment. Probably because she isn't doing anything at the moment.

Here, for future reference. The official explanation as to why they get stronger through leveling up is that it simply takes them a while to mentally synchronize with the summoner. When they hit level 18, the champion and the summoner are completely in sync.
That's why when they start a new match, with a new link, they become level 1 again.

Oops. I had no idea that there was already an in-lore explanation for the leveling system. Man, and I've been so good about lore up till now.
Ah well. I'll go into the story once I'm done with this reply and iron out this little mistake. Thanks for pointing it out to me, guys.
4666224 It's a really neat one, isn't it?
4666224
Don't worry about it; it's not super well-known. I think it was in the old Journal of Justice, which not a lot of newer players have read. I'm just a lore freak, is all.

Did you stop this fic? I want more! Dude, congrats, you made a good displaced fic with the best mage from LoL, have a fav and like.

It's strange, really. I want to continue it, but I can just never work up the motivation to write whenever I sit down in front of it. It's like as soon as I think about how long its been since I updated, the drive to update once again just drains out of me.
Maybe someday. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
Either way, thanks for the fave and comment. Always nice to know that new people are still finding their way here.
