"Frozen Again: 'Love Never Ends"

Act VI

Prologue

"Forget-Me-Not"

Is it the wind over my shoulder?

The deep russets and golds and burnt siennas of late autumn 1841 filled the Master Painter's palette with colorful vivid beauty that made this pristine undisturbed section of God's nature breathtaking to behold.

The crystal clear dawning skies over the mid-November morning in Arendelle, Norway had billowed in a particularly cool wind at 4°C to usher in the winter's seasonal chill in this southern tip of Norway. But that was nothing to the wielder of ice who thecold never bothered anyway, as she in her loneliness strolled the shore.

While the polar nights in the Arctic circle top of her country were alight with the spectacular Northern Lights her Scandinavian nation was so famed for, Queen Elsa of Arendelle felt the center of her sun had been obscured beneath the swirling awe-inspiring horizon.

Is it the wind that I hear gently whispering?

Two months had passed since the lovelorn young woman and her reunited family had returned to their beloved native country. The entire kingdom had given praise to the Lord when its conquering heroes returned. A month-long celebration began for Arendelle when the miraculous homecoming of their cherished lost-at-sea sovereigns, King Agdar and Queen Idun, was revealed.

The patriotic spirit of the entire nation soared as the happy Norwegian citizens welcomed back their King and Queen who had all too early departed from them. Once thought lost forever, the Norwegians' dear leader Agdar and his lovely wife, Idun, were once again embraced in the loving bosom of the Arendelle family and the welcoming hearts of their two dearest daughters.

Though, one of those feminine hearts had been quietly longing for her own partner in destiny to come to his new home of her heart after he had been sent away by her protective royal father. According to King Agdar, Prince Hans must prove his worth to be Elsa's mate – and the more desired end— to forget about one another in the process– in Arendelle's proud Sjoforsvaret Navy.

As she strolls to the spot closest of the fjord along the castle's Kolbjøn Quay, Elsa of Arendelle looks with beseeching eyes across the sea dreamily and hears that same plaintive melody again echo on the winds.

Are you alone there in the valley?

Just as she did every morning at daybreak since he departed, via the Pollen harbor through the direction of the Skaggerrak Strait to the great sea beyond...

Oh, Hans… Two years apart… And not a letter or missive's line to pass between us… I know that my love for you will still be as constant… But, after all that lonely time being in all those exhilarating new places, meeting exciting new people, how can I know you'll still want me?

But whenever the insecure Ice Queen felt that cold sadness creeping up inside of her uncertain mind at their extended, uncommunicative enforced separation – just when the Queen of ice-olation was beginning to accept that she could perhaps rely on having another's warmth intimately near – she remembered what her brilliant Prince Hans asked her to do.

Reflections of the dawn's sunlight trickle down through the leaves of the felled birch trees and play across the beautiful crystallized forget-me-not corsage Hans had placed over her heart.

The Ice Queen herself had frozen in time that precious memento of her romantic lover back in Egeskov's lovely Rose Garden.

A small smile tickles at her lavender lips as she remembers when her handsome Prince Hans had bestowed the tiny brigade of woven flowers to her in that priceless adorable way when the usually debonair Dane bashfully gifted Elsa with these meaningful little blue flowers.

'Forget-me-not, O Lord!' Hans' high tenor in that effeminate voice for performing effect echoes through Elsa's consciousness yet again. The downhearted Queen cannot help but let out a small giggle each time she recalled his precious anecdote retelling.

'Then that shall be your name, patient little one: Forget-me-not.'

The entire scene of how her dashing young man had enthralled her with his poignant tale of the tiny blue flower's fidelity replays in her head. With her hands folded, Elsa quietly stands at the water's edge where Arendelle's sparkling fjord stretched out to the sea.

Every dainty step that the stunning blonde beauty took along the plane tree lined grassy knolls at the edge of the valley coast near Arendelle Castle brought another memory to her disheartened mind as she gazed to each glistening petal sentimentally.

Her eloquent fiancé, Hans Westergaard, had related so many sweet, masterfully spun emotions with just the tender power of his velvety voice. Hans' words replaying in her head for the hundredth time – no thousandth – was enough to make Elsa laugh out loud in the hushed still of the early morning harbor.

But Elsa was secretly crying inside to realize that her love was so very far away right now, quite inaccessible to her on his naval ship's far-flung tour across the oceans.

'Whenever you're feeling sad – or dare I say, missing me –' Prince Hans' brazenly narcissistic smirk in that moment still caused the naïve young woman's insides to tremble with unexplored emotions.

'Remember this little blossom and the patience that her true heart will be rewarded with the richness of love's blessing, someday.'

Her chilled heart warms instantly. For no one seemed to understand her as well as her dashing redheaded Dane, as Elsa hears Hans' lovely tenor reverberate inside her soul. His gentle wisdom spoke patience for the promise of a future together with a true love beyond love that their amazing bond, through danger, risk and ultimatel, trust, had forged a relationship that would last a lifetime.

No, not alone, for you walk, you walk with me.

But those prospective assurances didn't take away the youthful pangs of being physically apart from the man she loved with all her heart. A formerly frightened vessel that persuasive Prince Hans had somehow persuaded her to let him lead to shore...

"Oh, Hans, I miss you…"

A lean, handsome young man opens his eyes that saw little sleep that night in his bed. In the darkness, he was distinctly certain he heard a voice whispering to him on the winds of his subconscious.

In the lonely darkness of his captain's cabin, Vise Admiral Hans Westergaard of the Sjoforsvaret, a Knight Errant of the Kingdom of Arendelle, was absolutely sure that someone dear to his heart was calling out to him.

Somewhere out there in the velvety folds of her land of pristine beauty and tranquil serenity, a young woman with the dust of the stars in her glimmering eyes was gazing over the dawn with dreams of him in her mind.

A smiling Prince Hans was ashamed of himself to realize that he was more conceited to know of her devotion than pitying her tender emotion this morning. But his puffed up a bit male ego assured Hans Westergaard he had the heart of a beautiful queen pining away for him eight thousand nautical miles, half a world away.

So as by his Admiral, King Agdar's order, the red-headed Dane with a lifetime of naval service, embarked across the seas with his remarkable fifty-three meter, nine hundred long ton steamship, the HmNos Nidaros, on her first launched ambitious expedition of discovery and scientific research.

But no matter where in the world his naval mission took him on this stimulating tour of the high seas most young men of Hans youthful age could only dare fantasize to be in command of, the Danish Prince was certain he'd never walk any foreign soil alone.

For his yearning love for the time to pass, so they could be together again, was just as strong for Elsa of his heart as hers was constant for him.

Never alone, for you walk, you walk with me…

Hello Frozen friends!

HAPPY EASTER! ^_^

I made it to my book launch date with this short prologue! : (already got the whole first chapter written and typed up for next week!:)

This book starts with an engaged and hopelessly in love Elsa and her handsome Prince Hans being separated by her overprotectve father, King Agdar, who has been miraculously returned to the land of the living, along with his Queen Idun. Even after promoting Hans to Vise Admiral and admitting the Dane's bravery and chivalry, Agdar is still wary of the Southern Isles' prince in a relationship with his older daughter, Elsa.

This story will begin with the journey for this wary father, reunited with his children, and adjusting to a new life as the 'Ice King'; Elsa in joint command of his kingdom; and reluctant King Agdar being forced to accept Hans and Kristoff into his closeknit family dynamic.

With the aid of his beautiful and capable wife who has some magic healing powers of her own, Elsa and Anna's Mama Queen Idun, Agdar must learn that part of growing up is full of heartbreak and choosing who to trust with your heart. And the fact that he can't always protect his beloved girls from the peaks and pitfalls of this world, nor their destined young men.

Did you enjoy this lovely plaintive and heartfelt song themed prologue? The minute I heard our golden-throated Santino sing this beautiful, haunting melody, I almost fell off my chair that the words so applied to Helsa's story at this point! So I interwove its tender lyrics into Elsa and Hans' subconscious thoughts, to set the 'longing for love' mood of the entire first part of this third book's chronicle.

This novel's story will continue into the exciting world of Frozen and Tangled, as the Arendelle sisters and their cousin Rapunzel expand their own families with children shared with their true loves in futures full of promise.

So, I invite you to come along on this journey of love and romance in full bloom for Ice Queen Elsa and her reformed, by God's grace, Prince Hans as they forge a future together, however unlikely it seemed before, with loving peppery little sister Anna's help finding romance and family adventures along the way!

And I want to wish all of my Frozen friends out there the most blessed and Happy of Easters!

Let this be the day we celebrate not mere bunnies and chocolate eggs, (yummy as they may be:) but for the selfless, generous Love of our Savior Jesus Christ who died to offer each of us undeserving sinners Salvation's Redemption into God's holy, unending kingdom with His blood.

Just as Prince Hans has discovered through that blessed redemption, a phenomenal, miraculous love in the forgiving, warm heart of his beautiful Ice Queen Elsa.

God bless you as we begin this new journey of our dreams and imaginations together in our mutual love of Frozen's continuing story in the magical world of fairy-tale reading. May we share many more hours together in exciting, heartwarming adventures to come!

Jesus Christ is Risen today! Hallelujah! ^_^ Happy Easter to all my Frozen friends!

Love, your humble authoress,

P.S. Do you like the mistletoe cover art by my talented big sister Setsuna? Hans dipping Elsa for a romantic smooch under the mistletoe he's expertly wielding is absolutely breathtaking and so befitting our hopelessly in love handsome pair. After some angst at the story's beginning, it will definitely be a fun and frisky scene to look forward to, coming ahead for 'Frozen Again: Love Never Ends' at Christmas time! Look for the playfully romantic chapter in Helsa's love story to play then! Thanks for reading!
