Legend. A term that often gives the image of heroes of the past, individuals that changed the world with their bravery alone. These tales often fail to tell the whole story, the story of the suffering and trials these heroes often go through in order to protect the others. Spyro, a child who's inclusion in this war was merely coincidental, one that robbed him of his innocence. Cynder, a dragoness who was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and for this sad infraction, was forever scarred, physically and mentally. The unlikely duo have become living incarnations of the word legend.
Each test was harder than the last, Malefor took the total sum of all their strength. However not all tests are the same, and this trial, this final test is one they could never have prepared for.

It has been way to long since one of these was made. I am excite
This is very well made good job
With some of the recent fics like these I've read, I expected this to be a cringefest.
I can safely say I was wrong and am looking forward to the next chapter.
8146803 Trying to find the balance between detail and realism was a bit of a challenge. Glad I got it right.
great chapter. I'm definitely looking forward to the rest of the story.
I am very much enjoying this so far, and I agree that you do very good job on balancing the characters you are presenting. Keep up the good work!
8147071 lmao. What?!
i came to laugh at another bad crossover, i left wanting another chapter.

When is another chapter coming out? Please tell me!

8147224 Probably within the next 2-3 days. The next chapter is roughly 1/4th of the way done.
It threw me a little with the sudden shoggoth encounter, but you know how to write a good story, heres to hopefully another good chapter.
8147368 I intended for that encounter to be a little sudden lol glad u enjoyed it
A NEW Spyro the dragon/MLP crossover? Why did no one tell me!?!?
This looks interesting! Your descriptions remind me a bit of Dardarax's, are you a DL reader? :) I'm a Spyro writer myself and it's good to see him crop up in better form on this site than usual.
8147462 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
8147468 omg, Griffon I love your work :D
8147472 Aww thankyou so much! Not bad yourself :D Do you know who my avatar is? ;)
Haha the next LOC chap is actually overdone but my beta told me I had to add more and now I don't know how to integrate the two pieces. Meeeeeeeh sooo close to done.
8147481 Been awhile since I cauht up on LoC, but Safe and Sound hit me hard
8147489 I'd definitely call S&S my best published work. Been trying o make a plan for a sequel but it's haaaard XD I've started writing it a least three times...
Are you someone I know down yonder on FF?
LOC2 is almost done which is a relief.
8147513 Posted a different work under the same, but my FF name is Pestilence616, I don't know if you read it or not lol
8147522 Yeah I've unfortinately lost interest in most of the Spyro readings available and ended up not searching much. I mostly look at Riv's and Dandy's stuff (And beta Umbral Visions of course). I might have a look.
It's nice to meet someone who's read Safe, it feels like it passes a lot of people bye because of being such a weird crossover XD I don't think a lot of people see it.
8147538 Sad that most people miss it, I thought it was beautiful
8147544 I definitely had fun with it, and I'll never forget the moment I had the idea. In my junior year of highschool I was making a Cyn plush in my clothing class. My friend complained about it not having eyes and my first reaction, due to a love of bad puns rivaling LOC Cyn's, was "IT'S CYNDERMAN!" Of course then I just had to design it annnnnd things escalated rather quickly from there XD
8147565 I would honestly expect her to say that lmao
8147544 This was just after Apples to the Core and Slendermane was also partly at fault XD
8147574 I'm going for a more distrustful, traumatized, war torn version of Cynder. I like the idea, not so much the silly Cynder, which is fun tho. Cynder comedy is awesome tho tbh
8147571 Haha there is a rule for Cynder's nicknames. To keep them as authentic to her character as possible they must always be the first bad joke that pops into my mind, no exceptions. Hence Crawlacker XD She is after all 12 or 13.
8147583 Haha yeah, that role is to be filled by Spyro. Sort of, he's actually come to terms with a lot of things. Of course, my Cyn is traumatized as hell right now... Where did you leave off on LOC? Cyn is noooot in a happy place at the moment.
8147682 Been like 2-3 years lol Personally I think that trauma fits her character better, Spyro being her clown in a way
8147683 Haha, you haven't seen my Cyn try to throw herself off a cliff I take it. Her character has changed a lot and been pushed to her despair event horizon twice now. She is not the happy little wise-cracker she used to be. Though it also bears mentioning that my Cynder is not canon Cynder. Her traumas are different, she's a different character.
After all, the corrupted one was Spyro:

8147747 Rip Cynder's happiness
Haven't seen a fic starring Spyro in years.
I'm eager to see where this goes.
alas poor CASF i knew her well (not really im just a pro lurker like that)
im kinda sad she deactivated her DA acc had a lot of nice art on it
im glad to see a spyro writer writing a cross over here
especially a LOS cross over
i expect great things from this fic
8148132 Eh, DoTD will always be the best, pitty i have found no stories on that
8148361 Well this is set roughly 3 years after DotD, so there's that
8148361
here maybe not but check out this here

English and all ratings about 1.1k fics
8148465 Yeah bro, I've been there before lol
8148473

i assumed you knew about ff.net it is one of the most prominent web fic sites and you write
8148477 Yee
8148478
also how come no one told me i spelled great wrong
i always botch that word
Huh. Spyro and Cynder. Haven't heard those two names in years. Welcome back, strong start, eager to see some more.
And for nostalgia's sake, I will now leave the DoTD parody here... I'm totally going to rewatch it, now that you've reminded me of Spyro and Cynder. Good times.
8148558 "Oh go hump a cactus!" Now doesn't that bring back memories
8148576
Yes... yes it does.
You have my attention.
I'm excited for the next chapter.
Who is Spyro?
Heard the name before but don't know where its from
8149478 A series of games from way back when
