"Queen Elsa and Princess Anna. It is truly an honor to make your acquaintance." The man standing in front of the boarding bridge was about the height of Anna, and a little scrawny. He wore thin round glasses in front of his silvery eyes, and an interesting hat that did not go well with the suit of clothing he wore. The man bowed, and continued. "I am Prince Larseus of Bris. On my ship are items my father believes you may have an interest in, but some of them are, well…curious, shall we say? Yes, I believe curious might be exactly what we are looking at. If you'll follow me, we can take a look at the items right now." He smiled slightly, turned, and boarded the ship.
Elsa nervously glanced over at her sister, and was met with excited eyes and a smile. This reassured the queen, who followed the man onto his vessel, Anna right on her tail. Larseus led them to his quarters, where a chest was stationed on his desk. The prince closed the door slowly, cautiously peering out of the doorway as he did so. "
So, let me explain why I didn't wait to bring these to the castle first. These items are extremely rare: one-of-a-kind, even." He pulled out a key, unlocking the chest, and opening it slowly. "They are so rare even that I don't even trust my crew members to watch over them." He pulled out a smaller box, and with a brush of his fingers on the lid, the box popped open. Inside were three crystals, gleaming in a shade of green, white, or red. What looked like a runic symbol was embedded in each of the stones.
The sisters looked at these jewels with interest and delight, finally speaking to the prince. Elsa was the first to speak. "Prince Larseus, we would like to take these with us. What would you like in return?" Anna smiled at this man, knowing that Elsa could give him anything he wanted for this treasure.
"I would like only provisions to return home. My father asked me to deliver these to you, but never wanted to sell them. They are yours." He smiled, handing over the box. Anna took it graciously, smiling back at the man. "Thank you, Larseus. You have our gratitude." The man handed Elsa a scroll, sealed with wax. "This scroll is not to be opened except in the company of people you trust. My father told me it would explain the treasure to you. Now, if you will excuse me, I have a bit of catching up to do with my studies."
