It had only been a matter of hours but so much had happened in the village of Arendelle. After Anna had frozen, the sister's love quickly thawed her, and showed Elsa the true key to controlling her powers. With summer restored to Arendelle, Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff and Sven found themselves with a slight problem on their hands. What to do with Hans. As the kingdom rejoiced over the return of the warm weather, the royals found themselves back in the castles courtroom, contemplating.
"I say he should be locked up forever." Stated Kristoff firmly. Anna looked up at him and smiled, gently placing her hand on his back. Elsa, just realizing that she had no idea who this man was decided she first needed to question his authority. "Excuse me, but… who are you?" she questioned cautiously. "Oh… ah… well… you see… we… trolls… Anna…." Kristoff quickly became flustered, rubbing his hair and blushing, he looked everywhere but at the powerful queen. While Elsa stood confused, Anna smiled in amusement and decided to explain herself. "Elsa, it's ok. He helped me on this whole journey. He was the one who made sure I got back to the castle, who kept me warm and held me close when I needed it. He's not perfect, but he'll do. Elsa looked slightly alarmed, worried her sister was already engaged to this man. "Don't worry Elsa, we are taking things slow." Relieved Elsa turned back to the gruff mountain man.
"As much as I want to see that treacherous man behind bars, this is a matter that also involves the Southern Isles. Although, we could very well charge and try him under Arendelle law, as he did attempt murder, and commit an act of treason within our borders, that is also a lot of money and energy put on our judicial system. Let alone the cost of his medicine, food, and water. I propose we deport him back to the southern isles and banish him from the kingdom of Arendelle. This way, we never need to worry about him within our borders. It is likely that Hans older brother, the current King, Christian, will also have some sanctions he will place on Hans.
It was with this that Hans found himself being shoved into a small prison cell, upon his own boat. He was ashamed. He arrived clean, shaven, a prince… now, he was dirty, embarrassed, and not even sure he still had claim to his title as Prince. Lacking all his dignity, he curled up into a small ball and fell asleep, hoping it would be a very long time before he reached the Southern Isles, and the wrath of his brothers.
