Two years have passed since what is now known as the Frozen Summer, caused by the then uncontrollable magic of Elsa, Queen of Arendelle. Since then, true to her word, the gates never closed. Extravagant parties were thrown nearly every week, and some even lasted into the next. This was a time of peace and celebration. Surrounding kingdoms filled the ports with trade ships, stimulating growth and unity between nations.
Princess Anna skipped down the hall to her sister's room, and in true Anna fashion, knocked in her signature rhythm. "Elsa? It's time to wake up. The merchant ship from Bris should be coming in today." With a sigh, the queen lifted herself out of bed. "I'll be ready in twenty minutes. I'll meet you down at the port."
"Alright. You better not make me wait!" Anna ran down the hall, sliding down the railing, and right into the arms of her fiancé, Kristoff. "Woah there, where are you going in such a hurry?" His green eyes shone with a sort of interest that made Anna smile. "Elsa and I are going to greet a merchant ship down at the port. They told us a month back that there were certain items Elsa and I might like."
A smile crossed the blonde man's face. He loved Anna's fascination with the world around her. "I have to head that way anyways. I'm meeting my two new delivery boys when they get in." Since being made Arendelle's official Ice Master, he had the money to hire two new workers to help him and Sven. Olaf would tag along occasionally, but being made of snow didn't help him not being able to lift anything bigger than a flower.
"Well, let's get going then," Anna stated matter-of-factly, grabbing his hand, and pulling on it. Though he was strong, he couldn't help but trip over himself a bit. The two of them walked through the marketplace, greeting and being greeted by the townspeople around them. A cool breeze brushed the couple's cheeks, brought by Elsa fifty feet away. Elsa was wary of Kristoff and Anna's relationship, but nonetheless supported it, as well as their engagement.
"There's my guys now. I'll be back in time for dinner," Kristoff said, a light, happy tone in his voice. Anna turned to her future husband, and kissed his lips softly. "I'll see you tonight." With that, Anna grabbed hold of her sister, dragging her to the ship with the brightest sails of blue.
