The Answer To The Riddle Is Ice Cold

So Sunday night here in Wisconsin I was listening to the song that currently is trickier than trying to convince Lyra not to disect the first human to ever appear in Equestria. I'd had kind of a rough day and was feeling slightly dark. As I sat wishing for a way to escape the darkness that continually envelopes my I felt a sudden change in the song's energy signifying that I'd figured out the song's riddle. "Let It Go" is a transitional/ rebellious/moving foreward song!

 

Monday night I was driven into an even darker mood when I felt a similar energy change while thinking about my fanfic. An idea crept into my mind that I had to work on immediately. One ba based plane jump and return trip later, I had all the information needed to introduce a new character.... one that I'd become.

 

Fanfic wise I plan on doing an intro chapter in the form of an origin story but I'm not sure whether or not I should do side story based on the character. Admittedly he is inspired by the ice queen responsible for the above song and his story is similar but there are differences. Where she is human, limited with her powers, creates a castle of ice on top of a mountain, and has a warm heart, my character is alicorn, my old powers somewhat adapted to the coldness running through my veins, creates a castle in mountain caves, and has a heart solid and unforgiving as the frozen tundra. The ice queen also had her powers from birth and was turned dark by accident where N.F.F. used musical energy to focus the icy darkness within and bring it outward as well as chose to be evil after countless emotional pains, both past and present, became too much for him to bear.

 

Elsewhere: As soon as I awoke from my physical form's time on earth I took action. I knew I'd have to figure out a spell to make the song's effect more potent. Quietly I left the bedroom and moved to my basement lab to do some planning.

 

I didn't want to remember anything that had happened up to the point where I would use whatever spell I found combined with the song's energy to change my form. All the time I'd spent here, every event, life, moment I'd had a part in would become nothing but a memory to all those I'd shared them with. Doing so would mean hiding my past form from those who would seek to return me to it.

 

After an hour I had a plan. I would seek a power draining spell from sometaur who recently attempted a hostile takeover with one, literally making a deal with a devil. I'd use a fight against a night predator as cover to enact my plan. After that there'd be no evidence of where I'd gone nor what I'd become.

 

I left a message to my marefriend using a single song (separate ways, something both of us had used as part of our love connection), kissed her on her forehead in a way that wouldn't wake her, then took off out the window on the silent wings of an owl.

 

I made a beeline for the entrance to the cave leading into Tartarus. The guard dog sensed my pack rank and instantly side stepped to allow me passage. Inside I spoke to the one whom I'd seek a spell from, offering that if we were to meet on the field of battle as foes that I'd be less of a nuisance than I was previously. He gave me the spell and off I went to tangle with the nearest threat to a city.

 

Ironically a manticore was nearing the edge of a nearby forest. I thoughtspoke to the one normally responsible for handling such a situation and dove to intercept. The battle was a quick one. As the sun came up I use the spell and song to freeze both the manticore and myself, as well as drain my powers and my memories and one human form.

 

Minutes after the inst-freeze my frozen form shattered. Instead of freezing through and ending up a mixture of liquid human I ended exiting the icy form like a butterfly from a cocoon. Dragonic wings and eyes, regalia similar to the once fear Nightmare Moon's, and shades of white and blue resembling the icy heart I'd had grown. Cliche yes but admittedly it was something brilliant.

 

I lifted off with the song starting over and headed north toward the mountains near the Crystal Empire. Finding a decent spot I entered a cave and began making my own additions. Soon a network of caves molded under my icy influence to form what I'd like to call a "cavestle". Here I'll remain, far from any who'd wish to melt my heart and turn me friendly once again. I shall now only serve to cause mayhem and panic among the equines. Any and all who approach my new home will be warned to vacate or if failing, become garden party decorations.

 

All shall hear my moniker and fear NIGHTMARE FROZEN FACTOR!
