The evening before the coronation of Princess (soon to be Queen) Elsa, Anna, the second princess of Arendelle, was sitting in her room, looking out her window, and wondering why Elsa was so distant.
"We used to be best friends when we were young... what happened to you, Elsa? Why are you so scared all the time?"
The setting sun gave her no answer, and she sighed. Earlier that day, she had tried once again to reconnect with her sister Elsa, only to be rebuffed once again. Anna was not a person given to pensiveness, but she was frustrated. The fact that the next day was the day that she'd finally get to see her sister in an environment where Elsa couldn't run away or slam a door in her face only accentuated the issue.
As the sunset colors faded from the sky and the first stars became visible, Anna focused on the first star she saw, and recited the 'wish upon a star' rhyme Elsa had told her when they were little, modified to fit the occasion:
Star light, Star bright,
The first star I see tonight.
I wish I may, I wish I might,
Know the cause of Elsa's fright.
The star twinkled brightly. Anna sighed once more, and then she decided that she was done with the sighing. She was in that mood because she was tired, and so it was bedtime. Tomorrow was the day that she would finally be able to meet her sister and maybe wrangle some truth out of her, so it was time to stop sighing over the past and start singing for the future.
Anna yawned. She really was tired. Perhaps she'd sing tomorrow, but for now, Anna got into her nightgown, undid her braids, and climbed into her bed, snuggling in under the covers. The bed was warm, and Anna was asleep very quickly. That first star twinkled brightly in the ever-deepening night outside her window.
Anna slept, and dreamed, while that star twinkled overhead.
It was the strangest dream that Anna had ever had.
