NOTE: Sorry about such a long gap between posts, but I'm glad I didn't set an eta on this part, ended up adding ten pages more of content to the end, making this chapter actually the longest one. Anyway, just one more part left!

"Well then..." stated Emory with a smile as she turned around to face the trio. "I-" she began, before something seemed to catch her attention behind the three, prompting them to turn around to the sea behind them and immediately saw what grabbed Emory's attention, Nokk raising from the water. "Nokk..." commented Emory with a smile as she walked towards the Water spirit.

"Master..." replied Nokk, as he walked from the water onto the shore. "It's wonderful to see you free at last."

"It's great to see you in person as well." stated Emory as she walked up to Nokk, who lowered his head as Emory wrapped her arms around his neck in a hug.

Despite their dislike of Nokk, Elsa and Anna did feel some delight seeing Emory reunite with the Water Spirit in person.

"And thank you for your lifetime of unwavering loyalty." stated Emory, releasing her embrace, while Nokk looked at her and replied...

"And my loyalty will continue. Just because you are free, does not free me of my duty to protect you, Master."

The remark prompted a smile on Emory's face as she lifted her right hand to caress the side of Nokk's head.

"Your entire life has revolved around protecting me; but I don't want your life to be chained to me, a singular duty."

"You are not a burden, Master." stated Nokk.

"Heh, I know you don't think that... But, as your master, I free you from your lifetime duty of my protection. From this day forward, you are free to make your own choices and live your life as you desire."

"But... Master, my purpose is to protect you."

"Not anymore." stated Emory with a smile. "Your purpose now is what you chose it to be."

Following this, Nokk took a couple steps back, lowering his gaze downward.

"I... choose my purpose..."

"Yep." stated Emory.

"But my purpose is to protect you, Master."

"I no longer request your protection." stated Emory, "Although technically, I never did and you did choose this; but I want something better for you than being my guardian." she added, before stepping towards Nokk and lifting both hands to to his head. "You don't need to create a new purpose right now, take some time and think about it. In the meantime, I do have another request, not as your master, but as one human to a magical spirit; Would you like to be my friend?" she asked with a smile, a few moments pass as Nokk averted his gaze in thought, before he answered...

"If you're allowing me to live my life as I see fit..." stated Nokk. "Then that means I'm free to decline your request of friendship, right?"

"Uh... well, yeah..." replied Emory nervously, pulling back her hands.

"Then I decline." answered Nokk.

"Oh..." replied Emory, lowering her head in clear disappointed. "Well... that's, fine." she added, before Anna cringed and commented...

"Ouch!"

"Guess you're happy to be free of me then." stated Emory, lifting her gaze to Nokk again as tears brimmed her eyes.

"I'm joking." replied Nokk flatly.

"W-What..." stuttered Emory, blinking her eyes in surprise, before Nokk repeatedly stomped his right front foot and whinnied delightfully.

"It's a prank!" declared Nokk leaving Emory in speechless awe. "Of course I'll be your friend!"

The reveal prompted a round of chuckles from Elsa, Anna and Edith, which caused Emory's face to redden in embarrassment as an annoyed frown came to her face as she looked to the amused Water Spirit.

"O-Oh ho-hoo, that's a good one, you got me, you jerk. Playing with my emotions like that!" commented Emory with her arms crossed over her chest and Nokk replied...

"I saw the opportunity and I couldn't pass it up to be the first to prank you. However, while you say that my duty to you has reached it's end and I must chose my own purpose, I cannot simply stop being your guardian, especially now that your are free, there are many dangers you could encounter. So, it may not be my duty anymore, but I chose to remain your guardian and protect you from harm."

The reply prompted a smile from Emory.

"If that's what you want to do, then I won't stop you." stated Emory. "But don't make protecting me your purpose. I want you to find something beyond me that makes you happy."

"I will try, Master." replied Nokk.

"Call me Emory." stated Emory with a smile.

"Ok, Emory." replied Nokk. "By the way, the others are coming to greet you and celebrate your freedom as well."

"Oh, really?" asked Emory. "You're brothers and sister are coming here?"

"Yes." answered Nokk. "I simply arrived first. Gale is bringing Bruni with her and Mou'tan is on his way."

Follow Nokk's reply, Elsa and Anna both were surprised and Elsa commented...

"Wait, Mou'tan? I'm assuming that's the Earth Giant's name, the Earth Giant is coming here?"

"Yes." answered Nokk. "Although, my brother can be quite lazy so it's likely he'll be the last to arrive, but his presence will be easily known before he arrives."

"Well..." stated Anna with a little smile. "We finally get to meet the Earth Giant." she added, before Edith chimed in...

"Mou'tan is an interesting name though; sounds like mountain." stated Edith, before Emory chuckled and replied...

"It's actually a funny story, Bruni gave him the name."

"Really?" asked Anna.

"Yeah." answered Emory. "When Bruni first saw him, he called him a mountain since he was so big, but the Earth Giant heard it as 'Mou'tan' and Bruni liked it so he named him Mou'tan."

"Hehe, that's kinda cute." replied Anna, before Elsa asked...

"Wait, so Bruni can talk?"

"Yeah." answered Emory. "All the spirits can. Regarding humans though, it's just a matter if they chose to and to who."

"Ah..." commented Anna. "Just like when my magic chose not to speak to me like Elsa's does, she simply didn't want to talk at the time."

"Right." added Emory. "Bruni and Gale speak like Nokk does, without moving their mouths; although Gale doesn't have a mouth, hehe... Mou'tan speaks like we do."

"Well..." stated Anna with a smile. "It would be nice to actually talk to them." she added, before the group saw and heard the trees in the distance rustling in the wind and Nokk spoke.

"You may get they chance, Gale and Bruni have arrived."

Moments later, the wind- Gale, reached the group, carrying a few leaves, one which Bruni happy rode, before Emory lifted her hand out and the blue lizard lands safely in her hands, before the wind swirled around her, prompting a giggle from Emory.

"Hey you two!" greeted Emory happily. "It's so good to see you in person!" she added, lifting Bruni of to her face and allowing the lizard to rub his head against her cheek as Elsa and Anna heard Bruni speak for the first time.

"I'm so happy to see you too, Mother!"

Bruni's voice sounded like a young child and the sisters couldn't help but smile at the child-like excitement in his voice. Seconds later, as Bruni hopped onto Emory's face, with a chuckle from her, made himself comfortable on top of her head, before they heard the familiar whistle of the wind as it swirled around Emory again before they heard Gale speak...

"Yes, it's wonderful to see you finally free, Mother. Thank you, Elsa and Anna."

Gale's voice sounded calming and mature, quite similar to Anna's magic.

"Well..." started Elsa with a smile. "You're welcome."

"Yeah." added Anna with a smile as well. "You're welcome!" she added, before Edith chimed in with a smile...

"Well this is turning into a weird family reunion, all that's left is the big guy to come."

"Yeah." added Anna. "I'm looking forward to meeting him."

"Wait a minute..." stated Elsa. "Now that you mention it, where exactly would the Earth Giant be arriving from?" she asked, before Nokk answered...

"You don't need to worry about the Northuldra. Mou'tan keeps to himself far away from them. He'll arrive from your right." he stated, briefly prompted the sisters to look in specified direction, but saw nothing unusual, before Gale spoke...

"He is on his way, if you fly up, you can see him coming."

"Really?" asked Anna delightfully. "I don't feel the ground shaking, so he must still be far away."

"Maybe we should go meet him." suggested Elsa. "If he's as big as Anna said the Earth Giant she saw in her vision was, he'd probably destroy the trees in his path coming here." she added, before Gale spoke.

"While there is some unavoidable destruction in his movement; He tries to be mindful of where he steps."

"Well let's go meet him then!" declared Anna delightfully, before Edith reveals her wings again.

"I'm game."

"Alright then." stated Elsa, before she created a sheet of fire-ice and stepped onto it before looking to Emory. "Can you fly?"

"Nope." answered Emory, "... but with Gales help I can, just like she does for your mother."

"Wait, what?" replied Elsa and Anna in surprise, before Anna added...

"Mother can fly?"

However, before Emory could respond, Gale swirled around her and started to lift her off the ground, but to the others amusement and Emory's embarrassment, the wind rushing around her blew up her dress, briefly exposing her nudity underneath and the healthy bush of hair at her crotch, before she gasped and pushed the front and back of her dress down.

"AH! Gale stop!" declared Emory.

The wind immediately left Emory and she stumbled back to feet, her face beet red, eyes quickly darting to the others, whom smiled at Emory's misfortune, although Elsa and Anna were blushing a little as well from the unexpected eye-full they received.

"Sorry, Mother." stated Gale. "I didn't consider your clothing."

"O-On second thought..." commented Emory, her hands remaining at her crotch and butt as she stepped towards Elsa, who now sat at one end. "I'll ride with Elsa." she added, stepping onto the sheet, facing Elsa and sitting down at the opposite end, before she placed her right hand down to the sheet. "Thanks to the mixed magic, it's not too cold."

However, Bruni, who still remained on Emory's head, hopped down to Emory's lap, who smiled and picked him up in her hands.

"Oh right, Bruni will keep me warm too." stated Emory, before Nokk spoke...

"I will not be joining you in meeting our brother. As Emory suggests, I will take some time to think about what my purpose should be moving forward."

"Alright then." stated Emory. "I'll see you later." she added, before Nokk turned around and jumped into the water.

"Alright!" declared Anna happily. "Time to take to the skies again!" she added before turning and jogging away a few yards before launching herself upward into the air, before Edith flapped her wings and followed, leaving Elsa and Emory to bring up the rear as she lifted them into the air, with wide-eyed awe coming from Emory. As they rose into the air.

"Wow..." spoke Emory in amazement as she looked around to the shrinking landscape below.

"Heh, have you never actually flown before?" asked Elsa.

"No, this is brand new for me!" answered Emory.

Meanwhile, with her moments of head start, Anna hovered in the air and after a quick scan of the vast forest below; just enough time for Edith, Elsa and Emory to reach her, quickly spots the Earth Giant in the distance; a large, roughly person-shaped, bulky 'mountain' that stood twice the height of the trees and moving.

"Hey, there he is!" declared Anna. "Wow, even from here, he looks big."

"Wow..." commented Elsa. "He really is like a small mountain." she added, before Anna stated...

"Come on, let's go introduce ourselves!"

Anna then sped off toward the giant, however, after just a couple seconds, double-backed towards the others as they headed towards the giant, while Emory had turned around to face where they were headed with Bruni returning to the top of Emory's head as she delightfully stretched out her arms as the wind rushes past her as they move through the sky.

"On second thought..." commented Anna, flying upright alongside Elsa to her right. "It's probably not a good idea to go flying towards him by myself, he might try to swat me out of the air like a fly."

"He wouldn't do that." stated Gale. "Not unless you attacked him first anyway."

"Well that's good." replied Anna, before Edith, flying to Elsa's left, asked...

"Is the big guy nice?"

"Yes." answered Gale. "He's just very lazy and likes to sleep for days on end and hates to have it interrupted; so as long as you don't wake him up, he's very nice when he is awake."

"Wow." stated Elsa. "So if he sleeps all the time, I guess we're lucky to be meeting him at all then."

"Yes, you are." commented Gale. "We all felt our Mother's freedom and the act woke Mou'tan up from his days long sleep and since this is such a wonderful occasion, wanted to meet mother." she added, while Emory's arms were now at her sides, enjoying the wind on her face, before Anna asked...

"How long does he stay up? Or will he go right back to sleep after meeting Emory?"

"It depends if there is anything he finds any interest in, in doing." answered Gale. "For the last thirty years, ever since your grandfather betrayed the Northuldra, he's spent most of his time sleeping."

"Wow..." commented Anna, before Elsa added...

"Wait, so does he not know about what has happened recently?"

"Not all the details." answered Gale. "Since he was asleep during it, but I've caught him up on the important parts; like you two being friends and the conflict between the Northuldra and Arendelle being resolved."

"Well that's good." stated Elsa.

"Wait." stated Anna. "So since we've freed Emory, you've spoken to the big guy in front of us, gone all the way back to get Bruni, then headed to us? I know your wind and all but that's quick."

"Hehe, while I can move quite fast- to the detriment of those around me..." stated Gale with a chuckle. "We spirits can communicate with each other over great distances; we don't need to be near each other physically."

"Well that's convenient." stated Anna, however, Elsa soon noticed as she looked to Anna, she was missing something she was once wearing and chuckled before commenting...

"Anna, your shoes."

"Huh? What about them?" asked Anna as she looked down to her feet and gasped when she saw them shoe-less. "My shoes! Aww come on!" she added, prompted Elsa to chuckle again and comment...

"Well this trip was unplanned."

"Yeah..." commented Anna with a sigh of disappointment. "Didn't think to make myself some glass shoes like last time, or that I'd have the chance to fly again. Oh well... just another thing to try and keep in mind."

---

With the group heading towards the approaching Earth Giant, the gap between them was quickly closed and upon finally reaching the Giant, stopping in front of him, at head level, which was a big as a house; Elsa and Anna's mouths were agape at the awesome scale of him, standing twice the height of the tallest trees below. He was made of gray-ish black rock with moss covering various parts of him, such as his arms; particularly his left, his chest and much of the left side of his face, which had a large distinct brow that shadowed his cave-like eyes.

"Whoa..." commented Anna. "You're a really, really big guy!" she added, before Elsa added...

"Yeah..."

The Giant's quite intimidating presence was soon taken down quite considerably when a delighted smile came to his rocky face and he happily spoke.

"Hello!"

He spoke slowly, his voice was deep and booming, feeling the vibrations in the air and their bodies, but his tone was one of joy.

"Hi!" greeted, or rather, yelled Emory happy as she waved both hands towards the giant, while Bruni, resting on the top of Emory's head, lifting himself up on his back legs and mimicked Emory's greeting. "I'm glad to finally meet you in person!"

"Me too, Mother." replied the Giant, lifting his right hand and waving it.

"Let me introduce you to the sisters that made this possible!" stated Emory, before reaching back and extending her right hand towards Elsa. "This is Elsa and the other to our right is her sister Anna. They're the Queen and Princess of Arendelle." she added, before Elsa lifted her left hand and both sisters gave a simple greeting, still in awe...

"Hey..."

"Oh!" gasped Emory, before direct her left hand to Edith at her left. "And this is their friend Edith."

"Hiya." greeted Edith with a wave of the hand as well.

"It's nice to meet you all." replied the Giant, before he placed his right hand to his chest. "My name is Mou'tan."

"Hi, Mou'tan." replied Anna.

"Hello." stated Mou'tan, before he lifted his right hand up towards the group. "Do you mind coming closer? It's a little hard to hear you."

"Oh..." replied Elsa. "Well we are quite a ways away from you." she added, before Anna flew to Mou'tan's hand and landed on it, followed by Edith, before Elsa also landed her and Emory on the giant's hand and dispersed their transportation, the four staggered a little as Mou'tan moved his large hand and them closer to his face, but they could stand on the giant's hand quite comfortably with ample space between them.

"Wow..." stated Anna as she looked over the edge of Mou'tan's hand and down to the trees, "It feels so weird to be so high up without flying."

"Yeah..." replied Elsa, also looking around warily. "It's a bit unsettling, to be honest." she added, before Mou'tan commented...

"If the height is an issue, I can fix that a bit."

The group then stumbled, all but Edith falling to their hands and knees when Mou'tan moved to sit, the ground shaking beneath him, leaving the group now at the height of the tree-tops.

"Thanks." replied Elsa, as the three returned to their feet. "But it wasn't that much of a problem."

"Yeah..." added Anna with a smile. "But now I know how Juleka feels when she sits on my hand."

"Oh, yeah..." replied Elsa with a chuckle. "And since we can fly now, I guess we're the fairies."

"Hehe, yeah, you're right." stated Anna, before Emory spoke to Mou'tan...

"So, big guy, anything happening in dreamland?"

"Yes." answered Mou'tan delightfully. "Before your freedom woke me, I had a wonderful dream where I was covered in grass with birds nesting on me and small animals running around me."

"Well that's nice." replied Emory, before Anna asked...

"Wait, Mou'tan, do you like nature?"

"Oh yes, very much." answered Mou'tan delightfully. "When I'm not sleeping, I enjoy gazing at the nature around me and interacting with it. My size makes it difficult to move around safely for the animals though, so it can take me a while to go from one place to another, so I usually use the rivers to travel since there are less trees to bump into."

"Aww, you're a gentle giant." commented Anna, before Elsa added...

"I guess it makes sense you'd like nature though, being an Earth Spirit and all."

"Hehe, yes." replied Mou'tan with a chuckle. "I could sit right here all day and happily watch the birds fly and the animals scurry about; go to sleep, wake up and do it all again." he added, before Edith chuckled and commented...

"Livin' the good life my friend. Doing what you love and hurting no one."

"Hehe, right, right." replied Mou'tan delightfully, before Anna asked...

"What about humans? Do you like us?"

"Yes, I do." answered Mou'tan. "I was friendly with the people of the forest long ago, but fighting broke out between them and another group of people. Personally, I despise conflict and wanted nothing to do with it, so I went away to mind my own business and sleep through it and it worked, going by what Gale has told me." explained Mou'tan, prompted a little chuckle from Elsa and Anna, who commented.

"Heh, well that's good."

Followed by Elsa...

"Yeah, the major issues between the Northuldra and Arendelle has been worked out and we're working on being on more friendly terms."

"That's great." stated Mou'tan. "Perhaps I could reintroduce myself to them." he added, before Emory commented...

"I'm sure they'd like that; all four of the spirits being on friendly terms with them again."

"I do not want to alarm them with my sudden appearance though." stated Mou'tan. "So I will let my brother's and sister, or perhaps you mother, inform them of my willingness to be with them again."

"Easily done!" replied Emory delightfully. "As long as the Northuldra approve, I plan to live with them, so we'll all be a big happy family."

"Wonderful." stated Mou'tan, before Anna commented...

"Oh, I have a question, Mou'tan. Do you have any magic or special thing you can do? Like Nokk, he controls water and the weather; Gale controls wind and Bruni controls fire."

"Yes, I do." answered Mou'tan. "I can move and manipulate rock and soil and I can sense all the life around me over great distances, as long as their on the ground or in the trees anyway. So it can help me navigate and avoid particularly populated trees."

"Ohhh! That's like me!" declared Anna happily, while Elsa smiled at Anna. "When I'm barefoot; like now after I burned away my shoes, I can sense all the life around me in a wide area!" she added, before looking to Elsa. "How awesome is that!? We share traits with the elemental spirits! You have Nokk and Gale and I have Bruni and Mou'tan!"

"Heh, yeah." replied Elsa with a chuckle. "I'm not quite ready to learn any magic lessons from Nokk anytime soon though."

"Yeah, I guess not." stated Anna. "But there's still Gale and wind magic. Heh, learning magic from the spirits of those elements, how awesome is that!?"

"Hehe, quite awesome." replied Elsa. "We'd just have to ask of course, we can't just assume they'll teach us anything." she added, before Gale spoke.

"I wouldn't mind."

"Me neither." added Mou'tan. "Although, I don't know what I could teach you. I've never taught anyone."

"Well..." stated Anna. "I've just started learning to use Earth magic and since you said you can move rocks and soil, maybe you could give me a few tips."

"Alright then." replied Mou'tan. "I'm willing to try."

"Awesome!" declared Anna. "First we have our magic to teach us, now we can add the Elemental spirits! Between the two of us, no ones gonna mess with Arendelle!" she added, which prompted a chuckle from Edith, Emory and Elsa, who commented...

"Ok, ok... Magic lessons are gonna have to wait though."

"Yeah, yeah..." replied Anna with a smile. "We have a worried Kingdom to calm."

"Besides, what happen to wanting to learn on your own?" asked Elsa.

"I don't want to just be told 'this is how you do that or this'." answered Anna. "I'm all for being taught something, just not given the answers outright."

"Fair point." commented Elsa, before Emory commented...

"Guess we should be moving along then, get me settled with the Northuldra and you three back home."

"Oh." replied Elsa. "We don't have to leave right this minute. You've just reunited with your... son?"

"It's no problem." replied Emory. "After-all, I'm the one staying here, I have plenty of time to catch up with the spirits; which I certainly will be doing. You two were basically forced away from your kingdom, the longer you're gone the more worried your people will be." she added, before Mou'tan commented...

"I'm ok with saying good-bye for now. I really enjoyed this meeting and speaking with mother in person."

"Well, alright then." replied Elsa, before she recreated her sheet of fire-ice and stepped onto it, with Emory as well as Anna joining her; Elsa and Anna sat together at one end and Emory at the other. "We'll see-ya later, Mou'tan." she added, as she lifted them from the giant's hand, while Edith lifted herself into the air as well, before she, Emory and Anna all gave their farewells and Mou'tan waved his right hand.

"'Till next time friends." replied Mou'tan delightfully.

"Bye!" repeated the group again as they slowly departed from the giant, who soon returned to his feet, turned around and began walking away, followed by Elsa turning them around and heading off towards the Northuldra camp.

"Well..." stated Anna. "That was an interesting, but delightful meeting."

"Yeah, it was." replied Elsa with a smile, before a chuckle left her. "Reminds me of Marshmallow; he's a big softy too."

"Marshmallow?" asked Edith, flying to their right, to Anna's right specifically. "Whose that?" she added, followed by Anna answering...

"He's a giant- well, a really big snowman Elsa created a while ago, during a particular event that I won't go into."

"Ah, like Olaf?" asked Edith.

"Uh, yeah, just a lot bigger and more intimidating." answered Anna, before Elsa commented...

"He doesn't live in Arendelle though like Olaf does, he stays in and guards my ice palace I created in the Northern Mountains. Although his birth stemmed from my desire to be left alone at the time; being a big hulking snow 'monster', he is kind and nice though and likes nature too. But he's quite protective of me and territorial of the palace."

"Ah..." replied Edith with a smile. "Another gentle giant, until his mother is threatened or strangers approach his home."

"Hehe, right." replied Elsa, before Anna chimed in...

"Oh, hey... in a way, Marshmallow's the same as Nokk. Both are guardians and super loyal to their creator."

"Hehe, I can see that." replied Elsa. "And yanno, now that I'm thinking about it..." she added, before looking back to Mou'tan walking away again. "Marshmallow and Mou'tan kinda have the same appearance, Mou'tan's just more bulky."

"Ohh, you're right." replied Anna, briefly looking back to the giant. "Heh, looks like you and Emory have similar artistic tastes."

"Well..." stated Emory with a smile. "It's not like I deliberately planned out how the spirits look. They were just created and based on my desire and emotion at the time."

"Same here." commented Elsa. "I didn't have a particular idea of Marshmallows appearance at the time of his creation; I just wanted something imposing."

---

After about ten minutes of flying towards the Northuldra camp and just a couple minutes away, Elsa stopped.

"We'll walk from here." stated Elsa. "I don't wanna fly into the camp."

"Alright." replied Emory as they began to descend below the trees. "Flying is nice, but I wanna actually use my feet. I've spent more than enough time stuck in one place."

Once the groups feet touched the ground, Edith spoke up...

"This is where I'll leave you girls."

"Really?" asked Anna.

"Yeah." answered Edith with a smile. "What's coming up next doesn't involve me; I'd just be a third wheel hanging around."

"Ok then." replied Elsa. "We were lucky to have you join us."

"Heh, I did enjoy being that third wheel up to now though." added Edith, before she looked to Emory with a smile, "I got to meet an old, family friend." she stated, before reaching her hands out for a hug, which Emory eagerly accepted and Edith wrapped her arms around Emory. "If you ever want to come visit me, my door will always be open."

"Thanks." replied Emory, pulling back. "Where do you live anyway?"

"Kaleen." answered Emory.

"Yeah, I know the name from the other demon." replied Emory. "But that's not giving me much, where exactly is it?"

"Ah, right, well the physical entrance to it is on the other side of the Earth. No one really uses it anymore."

"Well short of you taking me there, I doubt I'll be traveling around the world." replied Emory.

"Heh, I guess not." replied Edith. "Oh wait, Kaleen is just the most recent name it goes by, but the kingdom has been around a really long time, maybe you know it by one of it's previous names."

"Maybe." commented Emory. "But if I can't remember the names and faces of people, I dunno how much luck I'll have with remembering a kingdoms name."

"It's worth trying." replied Edith. "Ok, so you grew up with my great grandmother, so that's at least seven thousand years ago and-" she added, before Emory cut in with a gasp...

"Wait, seven thousand!? I've been trapped for over SEVEN thousand years!?"

"Yeah." answered Edith. "With you two living at the same time and of similar ages at the time, seven thousand years is about that time."

"Wow..." stated Emory. "So I'm seven thousand and twenty years old. I knew I was trapped for what felt like forever, but seven thousand... wow." she added, before Anna asked...

"Need a minute to process it?"

"Oh, no, no, heh." replied Emory with a smile. "It's just a surprise to hear how long I've been trapped. I'll just use the last two digits if anyone asks my age."

"So..." continued Edith. "Continuing our previous topic; Kaleen's name has changed once every four hundred to five hundred years, so that would be a few names back..." she added, before lifting her hands and counting her fingers. "Hmm... stop me if a name sounds familiar; there's Misey... Daida... Makai... Nisa..."

"Wait! Wait!" gasped Emory. "What was that second to last... M-Makai?"

"Yeah!" replied Edith delightfully. "Does 'Makai Kingdom' sound familiar at all?"

"Hmm..." hummed Emory, lifting a hand up to her chin and her gaze upward. "Makai... Makai... of those names, that one actually sounds vaguely familiar..." commented Emory, closing her eyes. "Come on... come on..."

"Well.." stated Edith with a smile. "You're memory isn't completely-"

"Oh wait!" gasped Emory delightfully as she opened her eyes and looked at Edith. "Makai! Yeah, I know that place! I lived there!"

"Seriously!?" gasped Anna.

"Yeah!" answered Emory happily. "When I lived there we pronounced it M'akai though, but wow! That place is still around!?"

"Yep." replied Edith.

"Wow..." repeated Emory. "So it's been sealed off from the rest of the world since I've been trapped?"

"Yeah." answered Edith. "For humans- or rather, those without magic or the means, once you enter, you can't leave. The previous ruler decided to magically seal the kingdom off from the rest of the world, which has been upheld by the current ruler. The humans have their part of the world and we, non-humans have ours, if we chose to live there." she added, before Elsa asked...

"The Kingdom's sealed off, but you and Silvia can come and go?"

"Yes." answered Edith. "Like I said, if you don't have the means, you can't leave. With portals though, you can and certain people, like some high ranking members of the kingdom or in particular, the royalty, can freely come and go, in and out of the kingdom; and interestingly, animals too, like cats, dogs, birds and so on. Although I'm an Ancient and rather well known, I'm not particularly high ranking or of royal blood though, so there are limitations even I have to abide by; such as even if I know where it is and can create a portal to it, it only works if know the Kingdoms current name."

"Wow..." stated Anna. "So have you ever been... I guess, locked out?"

"Heh, yeah." replied Edith with an embarrassed chuckle. "Once. I spent a prolonged period of time outside of the kingdom and in that time, the name had changed without me knowing. When I decided I wanted to return home, to my shock, my portals no longer connected; luckily I knew where the physical entrance was."

All three shared a chuckle before Anna commented...

"Hehe, that must've sucked."

"Yes, it did." replied Edith. "And quite embarrassing." she added, before Emory commented...

"Well, I missed out on a lot back home. There's probably a whole story concerning the reason M'akai- or rather Kaleen is sealed off from the rest of the world, but it's not important to me, I no longer live there."

"Yeah, there is." stated Edith. "If you're not interested though, I won't bother you with it." she added, before looking to Elsa and Anna. "What about you two, interested?" she asked and Elsa answered first...

"Maybe later."

"Is it a long story?" asked Anna.

"No." answered Edith. "I could summarize it into single sentence actually."

"Really?" asked Emory. "Then I'm interested." she added, before Elsa also commented...

"A sentence? Then I'm interested too."

"Ok then." replied Edith with a smile. "The previous ruler did it as a protective measure for humans and non-humans."

"Really?" asked Anna, wide-eyed. "Was there some sort of war?"

"Heh, no, no. Nothing that serious." replied Edith. "In the past, and even now, humans tend to react poorly when encountering non-humans, particularly of the more 'monstrous' variety with fangs, claws and covered in fur. It's a oversimplification, but Kaleen is a sort of 'sanctuary' for our kind."

"Oh..." replied Anna and Elsa curiously, before Emory commented...

"Hmm, that does sound about right. M'akai was a place known to be where demons and monsters lived."

"Right." stated Edith. "I won't deny that we demons were innocent in how we treated humans, but many of us didn't want trouble. Living among humans became increasingly stressful, particularly for those who had a harder time blending in and were not human-like demons like Succubi or Vampires or even Werewolves; so many decided to live where other demons lived and that's how Kaleen grew to what it is now." explained Edith, before Anna commented...

"So even today, demons still choose to live among humans."

"Yeah." replied Edith. "Those that can pass themselves off as human anyway."

"But Izzy told us you prefer to stay in Kaleen." stated Anna.

"I do." answered Edith. "I don't like hiding what I am. I don't have to do that in Kaleen."

"Oh..." commented Elsa. "Then I'm sorry for earlier then."

"Heh, that's quite alright." replied Edith and she waved her right hand dismissively. "I don't lock myself in Kaleen. While the kingdom is quite large and one could live their entire life there, I do venture out into the human world sometimes and that requires me to hide what I am when I'm around humans if I don't want to cause any trouble. I'm just grateful that I CAN blend in. I do like humans after all; some good friends of mine are human and don't live in Kaleen." she explained, before Emory happily asked...

"Are we part of those humans?"

"Yep, you sure are." replied Edith, followed by Anna commenting...

"Izzy also said there are humans in Kaleen."

"There are." answered Edith. "There's always been humans there. Kaleen is just a primarily demon-inhabited kingdom and as such, the humans there are accustom to demons being around. Though we do vastly outnumber them. But even so, some humans have made a name for themselves and are well known even among demons."

"Well that's awesome." commented Anna.

"Yeah, well Kaleen's no paradise though." stated Edith. "I don't want to give that impression. There's some stuff that happens in the Kingdom that I, as a citizen, am not proud of."

"Ah..." commented Anna as she and Elsa recalled the 'service' Silvia does and the reason for it. "Right."

Emory briefly glance to the sisters curiously, before back to Edith and asked...

"You mean the slavers, right?"

"Yeah..." replied Edith curiously. "How did you know that?"

"The other demon that was with Elsa and Anna..." answered Emory. "I saw her memories too and what she does for children."

"Oh." replied Edith.

"It's admirable, what she does." stated Emory. "Even if she can only help a fraction of the kids. It's a tough spot to be in when your father who rules over the kingdom allows such horrible things to go on." she added, before Anna commented...

"So that's why Silvia denies being a princess?"

"You knew about that?" asked Edith.

"Yeah." answered Elsa. "When we were here with her and in the white room of Ahtohallan, a bunch of memories played out and one was with Silvia arguing with her father about human slaves, but Silvia stopped the memory from playing in it's entirety and denied being a princess when we asked her about it."

"I see." replied Edith, before she sighed. "She can deny it all she wants, but Silvia is in fact royalty; The Princess of Kaleen. She does make use of the power her status gives her though to help children; but when meeting new people she insists shes just a normal demon or hides the fact, so try to respect that when you see her again. She hates being called a Princess or Royalty, since her father apparently refuses to do anything about the slavers."

"Alright." answered Anna. "We already respected her choice, but it's nice to know the context behind it." she added, before Emory commented...

"But it is kinda weird that the issue of human slavers is what causes her to deny her royalty."

"Heh, it's more so the kids than anything else." replied Edith. "Silvia has a strong affinity towards children and utterly loathes seeing them hurt or mistreated. She's always been that way about children; human or demon, even when she was a child herself, standing up to bullies without a second thought; didn't matter if they were other kids or adults."

"Wow..." commented Elsa. "So she just wanted people to be treated right; so as a kid she stood up to bullies of all kinds and that developed into protecting kids? ...and here I thought she was just attracted to kids."

"Heh, well she is." stated Edith. "Despite her father's current attitude towards the slavers situation, Silvia had a happy childhood and grew up quite well taken care of and loved by her Father and Mother. Her affinity towards children runs deeper than purely physical and just sustaining herself; she truly loves each child she raises." she added, before chuckling and shaking her head. "Anyway, I'm just blabbering on, Silvia wouldn't like me saying all this about her, especially confirming her royal status, even though you two pretty much figured it out; so I'll just end the topic here and be on my way."

"Alright." replied Elsa, before Anna asked...

"Wait, what about you? Do you like kids like Silvia does?"

"I won't say I've never feed on a child, but I prefer adults to sustain myself; I don't particularly care for children in that manner."

"Well that's good." stated Elsa, which prompted a chuckle from Edith before she created a portal to her right.

"Anyway, I bid you all farewell. I hope we meet again, especially you Emory."

"See-ya." replied back Emory, waving her right hand, followed by Elsa and Anna respectively...

"Bye."

"See-ya later. I look forward to meeting your sister too."

"I'll let her know." replied Edith with a smile as she walked through her portal before it closes.

"Well then..." stated Emory with a smile. "Off to my new potential home."

"Well I know the camp is directly ahead of us." stated Elsa. "It should be about a ten minute walk from here, this is only our second time here anyway."

"Well let's get moving our legs!" declared Emory delightfully before instead of walking ahead, happily skipped ahead, humming a tune.

Emory's delight prompted a chuckle from Elsa and Anna, before Anna took Elsa's right hand, who looked to see Anna's grin at her, before a small gasp left Elsa when Anna pulled her along, following after Emory, skipping as well.

"Heh, really Anna?" asked Elsa, slowly jogging along.

"Come on!" urged Anna with a smile as she swings their joined hands.

Elsa giggled, before matching Anna's pace and skipping along with her and soon catching up to Emory to her left, which Anna takes her hand as well and Emory delightfully swinging their hands with a giggle.

"This is so great!" declared Emory. "Feeling the ground beneath my feet again, the smell of the air, the sun on my face and in the company of people I can touch and hug again!"

"I'm glad you're happy." stated Anna as they skipped along with Elsa simply smiling in the delightful atmosphere she was swept up into.

The three happily skipped along for about two minutes, until Emory caught her right foot on a vine with a gasp and nearly brought Elsa and Anna down, along with herself; Although Bruni was launched about a yard from Emory's head, harmlessly landing on the ground. Luckily for Emory though, her face failed to meet the ground when a gust of air, Gale, caught her and helped her upright.

"Whoa, hehe..." commented Emory with a smile as she pulled her hand from Anna. "Guess I better pay more attention to where I'm stepping or I'll be feeling pain too." she added, before Anna asked...

"You're ankle fine?"

"Yeah." answered Emory. "I just tripped, didn't twist my ankle thankfully; and thank you Gale and sorry about that Bruni." she added, looking to the small lizard on the ground.

"You're welcome, Mother." answered Gale, before Emory crouched down and reached out her right hand to Bruni, who crawled onto her hand and up her arm to her shoulder and commented...

"That's alright, it was a fun trip!"

"Well..." stated Emory. "I'm fine with walking normally for the rest of the way." she added, continuing on in a normal walking stride, with Elsa and Anna walking along her.

However, not thirty seconds pass before Emory's casual walk shifted to one with a delighted bounce to her step.

"I'm so excited to meet more people!" declared Emory with a giggle, which prompted Elsa and Anna to giggle as well, before a small gasped left Anna...

"Oh, Emory, I just thought of something!"

"What?" asked Emory, as she spun around and walked backwards.

"A couple days ago when we first talked, I asked if you could use your memory powers on yourself and you said you could, but not when you were trapped in the castle." stated Anna, which prompted Emory to stop and her eyes widened in surprise.

"Hey, you're right!" declared Emory. "I'm free now, so I can use my powers to look through my forgotten memories!" she added happily, before Elsa asked...

"You can retrieve forgotten memories?"

"Yeah." answered Emory. "Memories may be forgotten, but they're still there, somewhere in the mind; you- or rather I, just have to reach in, dig around and pull the memory to the surface. The mind still has to be intact though of course."

"Wow." commented Anna. "That IS a desirable ability."

"Heh, yep, I did quite well for myself." replied Emory proudly, before she lifted her left hand up to her forehead and closed her eyes, before Elsa quickly commented...

"Oh, you're gonna do it now? Why don't you wait till you're alone?"

"I don't mind sharing my memories with you." stated Emory, opening her eyes to look at Elsa. "Heh, besides, I've looked through both of yours, it's only fair you see mine."

"Well..." replied Elsa, nervously. "Ok then."

Emory smiled and closed her eyes again as she took a slow breath. Elsa and Anna saw Emory's hand on her head glow a faint white, before the color left her hand as it turned transparent. Emory briefly frowned shortly after as the transparent glow on her hand crept up her arm towards her elbow. The sisters then saw Emory's right hand at her side mimic the same glow, followed by Emory opening her eyes with a smile.

"Got one." stated Emory, before she lifted her right hand to her right, Elsa and Anna's left, before a white orb left Emory's extended hand and reached about a yard before the orb expanded in the blink of an eye into a person-sized sphere.

All three saw an image inside the sphere; A point-of-view scene of what was assumed to be Emory; running through the hallway of a home, her right hand held in the grasp of a red-headed female child ahead of her. Given the red-heads height, she and in relation, Emory, couldn't have been older than eight or nine.

"Come on Emi!" declared the red-head with delight as she and Emory both were giggling. "We gotta hide!"

The three then heard a distant voice in the background, a woman, who sounded upset...

"Get back here you two!"

Elsa and Anna smiled at the scene, before they looked to Emory, who also smiled, but looked like she was about to cry.

"I know this one." stated Emory as they saw the red-head lead Emory into a bedroom. "Me and... my friend, painted our mothers face when she was sleeping, hehe, she was not happy to see us looming over her with paintbrushes."

Elsa and Anna chuckled at the context given, before they return their gaze to the memory and saw the two run into a closet.

"In here!" declared the red-head. "We have to be quite!"

The red-head closed the closet door and they both hid among the clothing, seemingly giggling uncontrollable. The sisters got a surprise though when the red-head turned towards them, or rather, Emory and they saw no face.

"Whoa!" commented Anna, before Emory commented...

"Still a little fuzzy, it should clear up though with me seeing this. Time or a name should do it."

The red-head in the memory soon commented giggling...

"I told you not to go for the nose! You tickled her awake."

"I couldn't help it!" stated memory Emory giggling as well. "The nose completed the look!"

The two then gasped when the woman called out again...

"Where are you two trouble-makers!? Emi!?"

The two trouble-makers both giggled delightfully.

"Stop laughing, Emi." stated the red-head. "You're gonna get us caught!"

"You stop laughing!" answered back memory Emory.

The exchange only prompted more giggles, before a nearby door was heard quickly opening and the two quickly placed a hand to the others mouths.

"Emi..." stated the woman. "Fiona... I know you're close."

"Fiona..." stated Emory, wide-eyed, before smiling wide. "Fio..."

The group then saw the red-heads face slowly form on the blank space, revealing a child's delighted blue eyes staring at them.

"It's Fio..." added Emory as tears rolled down her face in joy. "Ohh, I'm so sorry I've forgotten you."

Elsa and Anna both smile as the name and face returned to Emory, before Elsa asked...

"I'm guessing she was someone special to you?"

"Yeah..." answered Emory, smiling at the memory and the sight of Fiona looking at her, before the view turned to the closed door with a number of horizontal slits in it, providing a minor view of the room outside and the sight of their pursuer walking around on the other side. "She was one of my bestest friends when I was little." added Emory. "Hehe, we were basically girlfriends, my first; but we never outright said it; just an unspoken agreement between us."

"Aww..." replied Anna. "That's cute."

The group continued to watch the memory, Anna in particular smiling in anticipation if the two would be caught, which looked likely as the figure behind the door came closer. The door soon swings open to reveal a blank-faced woman in a casual dress and Fiona and Emory's gasp, before Fiona commented...

"Oh no, you caught us!"

"Yes, I did." replied their mother in an amused tone. "So you two think it's funny to paint my face when I'm taking a nap, do you?" she added, before she lifted both of her hand towards the two and the memory ended, before the orb shrank and returned to Emory's hand, before her hands and arms return to normal and she lowered her hands.

"That's it?" asked Elsa.

"Heh, I remember it now." stated Emory with a smile and wiping the tears from her face. "Mother started out angry with us after what we did, but somewhere between chasing us and finding us, she was in a better mood and she 'punished' us with her own prank. She put us to sleep in separate rooms and had the other kids paint our faces." she explained, as more tears began trail from her eyes, which Emory wiped away. "When I woke up, I didn't realize anything was on my face and the other kids kept giggling at me." she added, smiling, before she started sniffling as the tears kept coming. "I-It wasn't until I saw Fio again and we both found out that our faces were covered in paint." she explained, which prompted a small chuckle from Elsa and Anna.

However, shortly after, Emory dropped to her knees, futility wiping the tears from her eyes, prompting Anna and Elsa to walk up to Emory and Anna knelt in front of her with Elsa off to Emory's left as Anna placed a hand to the emotional woman's left shoulder.

"Hey..." commented Anna softly.

"It all just hit me..." cried Emory. "All my friends... everyone I've ever known... their all gone! I'm the only one left... alone..."

Bruni, resting on Emory's right shoulder, crawled down her to her hand, looking at her before he spoke...

"But you're not alone, Mother."

Following a couple sniffles from Emory, Gale briefly swirled around her and spoke as well...

"Bruni's right; Those you've known in your past life are gone, but you are not alone."

"They're right." stated Anna. "You can start your life again; you've already made new friends. Me, Elsa, Edith; the spirits and potentially a whole camp of people."

Emory lifted her teary gaze up to Elsa and Anna curiously, before lowering her gaze back to Bruni, then the ground.

"After what I've done to you both, you can call me a friend? Honestly?"

"Well..." stated Anna. "I'm willing to be your friend."

"But I've done horrible things!" declared Emory as the tears trailed down her face. "I created the spirits, they obey me; I'm responsible for their actions." she added, before lifting her gaze back up to Elsa and Anna. "I could've commanded Nokk to spare you're parents, but I didn't." she added, before Elsa spoke.

"You may have allowed our parents to die, but you didn't let them sit at the bottom of the ocean and decay; you preserved them for our arrival; gave us the opportunity for them to live with us again."

"But still..." replied Emory, before she lowered her hands to the ground, prompting Bruni to crawl around to Emory's right, who closed her eyes tightly and lowered her and shook her head as the tears continued... "I'm a horrible, selfish person! I don't deserve what you've done for me!"

Elsa and Anna shared a concerned glance; Emory viewing her memory and recalling the name and face of her friend had clearly triggered the weight of the reality of the life she had lost and the guilt of her actions that followed. Elsa lowered her left hand down to Emory's and took her hand in hers.

"Emory, look at me." requested Elsa, before the crying woman lifted her teary gaze to Elsa, before Emory was shocked when Elsa leaned in and hugged Emory. "You are not a horrible person."

Anna smiled at the act and positioned herself behind Emory and hugged her from the back, sandwiching her between them.

"Yeah." added Anna. "I dunno about selfish; we just met you, but you're not horrible. Someone whose this upset about their actions and regrets them is not horrible."

"I do regret what I've done!" cried Emory, her hands at her sides. "... and I'm so, so, so, so sorry... but my actions-"

"I forgive you." stated Elsa, as a pair of tears trailed down Elsa's face.

"W-Wha..." gasped Emory, before Anna repeated...

"Me too, I forgive you."

"J-just like that?" asked Emory. "After what I've done?"

"You seeked freedom from isolation." stated Elsa. "You saw an opportunity and took it and used what was available to you. I hated you when we first met and you were a manipulative jerk and to be perfectly honest, I consider you more of an acquaintance, than a friend; but over the weekend, we've learned more about the real you and you've apologized for your actions. I wasn't quite ready to accept it, but seeing you breakdown reminded me; you're just a person, who has suffered more than I can imagine. I can't say I'm a hundred percent ok with you, it's only been a week, but I would like to have a friendly relationship with you... and that starts with me being able to forgive you; for the both of us."

Emory closed her eyes as the tears streamed down her face and Anna behind her added...

"I second everything Elsa just said. You made the first tough step in owning up to your actions and saying your sorry."

Emory then slowly raised her hands up and returned the hug, one hand on Elsa's back and the other on Anna's hand that was also on Elsa's back.

"Thank you!" cried Emory. "Thank you so, so, so much!"

Elsa and Anna continued to hold Emory as she cried for the following minute, releasing her when Emory herself lowered her hands, allowing Emory to wipe the tears from her face and sniffling.

"Feeling better?" asked Elsa, with a little smile, as Anna returned to Elsa's left.

"Yeah..." answered Emory, looking to the two with a little smile and her cheeks reddened, before she looked down to Bruni who was positioned between the sisters and lowered her right hand down to him, allowing him to crawl up her arm to her shoulder. "Sorry about being such an emotional wreck."

"It's ok." stated Anna. "You've been through a massive change." she added, before reaching to Emory's right hand and taking it in both of hers. "You're finally out in the world again with people who you can touch and hug; feel the ground at your feet and the wind in your face. You can eat food again... Oh, apple's! You can eat your favorite food again!"

Following Anna's comment, a big smile came to Emory's face.

"Yeah... I can eat apples again." she stated, before Anna added...

"I did promise you chocolate covered apples slices too when you were freed. So when you do visit Arendelle, I'll have them prepared for you."

"Thanks." replied Emory, before she looked down to Anna holding onto her hand and moved her left hand to rest on Anna's. "I'm still sad though that I'm the only one alive from my life before and I doubt it will ever go away." she added, before Anna commented...

"But you still have your memory powers, you can help yourself remember things and think back to those times."

"Yeah..." replied Emory, before a small chuckle left her after a moment and Anna asked...

"What is it?"

"Yanno..." started Emory, continuing to look at Anna's hand's clasping hers. "I just remembered something my mother told me when Fio found herself a couple that took her in, separating us."

"Oh..." replied Anna. "You did say the place you lived in was like an orphanage."

"Yeah." replied Emory. "Children would come and go, couples would come and adopt children. Anyway, after Fio left, I was really sad and depressed and wouldn't play with the other kids. My mother approached me and talked to me and let me vent out my emotions, I cried a lot and after I calmed down, mother said something along the lines of; 'It's ok the be sad and to think about those that part ways with us, but don't live in the past and let the sadness turn to despair that prevents you from seeing and enjoying the present that's in front of you.'"

"Sounds like good advice." stated Elsa. "Even for the time we live in now."

"Heh, yeah..." replied Emory, lifting her gaze to the sisters with a little smile. "She didn't want me isolating myself, stuck in my sadness over losing Fio. In the end I didn't succumb to the loss, Fio wouldn't have wanted me to either. But now, the situations a bit different, there's no chance of me bumping into any of my previous friends, they're all gone... but with my power of memories, it would be easy for me to live in the past, restoring and watching my life-time of memories with the people I grew up with and cared about; I don't want to be someone trapped in the past, ignoring the present, squandering the second chance at living you two have given me." she explained, before Elsa smiled and commented...

"Then it's a good thing you're not going to be alone."

"Yeah." added Anna. "You'd have to make an effort to isolate yourself if you live with the Northuldra."

Bruni then added...

"And you have us, the spirits, we'll be with you."

Then Gale...

"And if we notice you start to retreat into your own mind, we'll pull you out."

"Heh, thanks you two." replied Emory with a smile as she lifted her left hand up to her shoulder were Bruni was and allowed him to crawl onto her hand to look at him. "The next couple days might be rough for me, with restoring my memories and reminiscing on my life before, but I'm glad I can count on you guys being there for me now, in the present."

"We'll always be here for you, Mother." stated Bruni.

Emory chuckled a little, before Anna stood, still holding onto Emory's right hand and urged her to her feet, followed by Elsa, before Anna released Emory's hand, who commented...

"Well, now that my emotional moment has passed, guess we better continue on to the camp, introduce me to the Northuldra and you two can be on your way home."

The remark prompted a chuckled from Anna and placing her hands on her hips with a smile.

"You make it sound like we're in a hurry."

"Well..." stated Elsa. "We are on a bit of a timer. I told everyone we'd be back in a couple hours."

"It's not set in stone though." replied Anna. "Besides, father's there; it's not like the town will go into chaos if those couple hours turn into a few."

"Well I'd like to keep to what I said." stated Elsa. "Let's just introduce Emory to the Northuldra and make sure everything's good and be on our way."

"Ugh, fine." groaned Anna, before Emory chuckled and commented as she moved her left hand holding Bruni back towards her right shoulder, allowing him to return to her shoulder...

"Well we still have time to talk between then and now."

"Yeah..." replied Anna, before Emory looked back behind her...

"The camp is that way right?"

"Yeah." answered Elsa, before the group resumed their walk towards the camp, only a few paces in though, Anna to Elsa's left and Emory to Elsa's right, Anna asked...

"So Emory, what was your friend... Fio, like, do you remember?"

"I do." answered Emory with a smile. "Remembering her name and face just seemed to uncloud my memory of her. She was great, so bubbly and happy seemingly all the time. It wasn't long after we first meet that we just clicked, like we were always friends and just found each other again."

"Aww, well that's awesome." stated Anna, before Elsa asked...

"How did you two meet?"

"Hmm... Fio arrived at the orphanage shortly after I did, I remember her being pretty nervous and skittish. The other kids all tried to befriend her, but it just made her hide behind mother. I understood how she felt though, still being new to the place myself. So the day she arrived, mother told us to give her time by herself to adjust and not to crowd her."

"Understandable." stated Anna. "In a new strange place and strangers excitedly coming up to you asking questions would be really stressful."

"Yeah." replied Emory. "So, it might've been later that same day or the next; don't quite remember that detail, but I decided to introduce myself to her; I wasn't part of the kids that crowded her excited to make a new friend and I figured she'd respond better with just one person. So I found her in one of the rooms..." explained Emory, before she chuckled. "She had removed the pillows and cover from the bed and made herself a little nest in the far corner of the room and was just laying there, sleeping, curled up with her knees to her chest."

"Really?" asked Anna. "She slept on the floor instead of the bed?"

"Yeah, I thought it was weird at the time too." replied Emory. "But it turned out that Fio was homeless before she arrived and had to make due with what she found in the wild and would steal food to stay alive."

"Jeez." replied Elsa as she and Anna cringed at the reveal.

"Yeah, luckily she managed to get caught by someone willing to take her where they took in homeless and abandoned kids." stated Emory. "Anyway, when I saw her curled up in her nest sleeping, I thought she was cute; I didn't want to wake her. It turned out she was a light sleeper though and woke up when I got close to her, she growled at me and covered herself in the cover."

"She growled?" asked Elsa and Anna.

"Yeah..." answered Emory. "Oh right, I didn't tell you, Fio was a werewolf."

"A Werewolf!?" gasped Anna. "You mean she can turn into a wolf!?"

"Yep! She was really cute too!" added Emory. "Anyway, I introduced myself to her, saying I was alone and that I knew how she was feeling, being in a new scary place with a whole bunch of strangers. I also told her this place was good and safe, everyone just wanted to be her friend and there was nothing to be scared of. She wouldn't talk to me though, until I asked her if she was hungry; she uncovered her face and looked at me. I took it as a chance to befriend her with food and told her I can get her something to eat; I ended up bringing her an apple, which except for the seeds, she ate the entire thing. Afterwards, she was willing to talk, asking me a bunch of questions, like if I was human, was I new there, how long was I there."

"That's sweet." commented Anna. "So it took food to get her to open up?"

"Heh, that and me being new to the place like her, we had something in common. Anyway, long story short, I was the link to help her open up to the others and why we were the bestest of friends."

"That's a nice story." commented Elsa. "Surprising you remember so much."

"I just don't remember names and faces." stated Emory. "I do have some memories of being with my friends. It's just, without the names and faces, many of the details are missing. Like the memory of Fio; I know that memory, but a lot of the details and context were missing in my mind, I just knew the girl I was with was a friend, not what she meant to me and I didn't even remember us hiding in the closet, I just remembered me happily running down a hall with a friend who I didn't remember. So when our mother said Fio's name, it triggered a sort of cascade of restored memories connected to Fio. If the memory directly involves Fio, I can recall it now; particularly if it's an important memory, like our meeting and becoming friends."

"Wow..." stated Anna. "That's amazing, so you could basically restore whole branches of forgotten memories."

"Yep." answered Emory. "But there are some limitations." she added, before lifting her right hand and pointing up to the trees. "Using a tree branch as an example; Fio would be the main branch and the smaller branches from it would be the memories I have of Fio, but I won't have access to every single memory of Fio that is on the branch at once; the mind doesn't work like that; you remember some things and forget others. A memory of say, me cuddling Fio in her wolf form would be much more important than a memory of me and Fio... I dunno... cleaning a room, something boring and uninteresting. The important, more meaningful memories are easier to reach, but it's not like the more mundane memories don't exist, they are there, it just takes more effort on my part to reach them and having a path towards a particular memory would make it much easier and quicker for me."

"Wait..." stated Elsa. "So you could seek out a particular memory someone requests?"

"Yep." answered Emory, before Anna asked...

"So, if I asked you to help me remember what I ate for breakfast say... five days ago, you could do it?"

"Sure." answered Emory, "I'd just need a reference point."

"What do you mean?" asked Anna.

"Like do you remember what you were doing the morning five days ago before you had breakfast?" asked Emory. "It would just give me a point to start at and work from, otherwise, I'd be looking through a bunch of other memories that you'd probably not want me seeing, 'cause I will see them in the attempt to get to the chosen memory without a point of reference."

"Ah, I see, hmmm..." replied Anna. "So five days ago would be Thursday, the day after we returned to Arendelle and the busy day that was; I slept with Elsa in her room that night before and morning the next day, when I woke up..." she thought out loud, before a blushing smile came to her face at recalling them sharing the shower. "Ah, right."

"Got a reference point for me?" asked Emory.

"Oh, no-no! I didn't want you to do it, I was just asking!" quickly replied Anna with a nervous chuckle.

"Alright then." replied Emory.

"So, I'm guessing, I would need to think of a moment before breakfast, then you go from there?" asked Anna.

"Yeah." answered Emory. "You think of the memory for me to work from then I advance through the memory of your day until I reach the target point and show it in front of you."

"I got a question." stated Elsa. "Do you ever get overwhelmed by memories? Or better yet, have you ever mistaken someone else's memories for your own?" she added, which prompted an intrigued gasp from Anna.

"Ohh, that's a good question! With your magic revolving around memories and you using it to support yourself, I bet you've looked through a bunch of memories."

"Heh, the answer to both of those questions..." replied Emory. "Is nope. I don't 'experience' another persons memory. I'm an outside observer to the them, so I'm more of a conduit for showing a memory and in the act of showing someone a memory they may not have remembered or remember very little of, allows them to recall more of it, so you can think of it like I'm simply flipping though a book of their memories and presenting them a page out of it."

"Interesting..." commented Elsa. "The book analogy makes it a lot easier to understand." she added, before Anna asked...

"So does that mean you can't alter memories? Like Pabbie?"

"Nope." answered Emory. "All I do is reach in and bring already existing memories, those one may not remember anymore, to the surface. I don't do what Pabbie does with changing memories around and making you think Elsa didn't have magic. Heck, I wouldn't WANT to do something like that if I could. That just seems wrong; A person is already willing to be put in such a vulnerable position for me to go searching through their memories. I just couldn't do it, personally."

"I can respect that." stated Elsa.

"Me too." added Anna.

"And that's just talking about something I can't do." commented Emory. "There is one memory-related thing I can do that I discovered by accident that I haven't mentioned, but I refuse to do it."

"What's that?" asked Anna.

"I can remove memories." answered Emory.

"Whoa..." commented Anna, before Elsa added...

"Seriously!?"

"Yeah..." replied Emory with a disappointed sigh. "You probably didn't think it was anything important at the time, but when my memory of Fio ended, the orb that contained the memory returned to my hand, then the glow of my hands faded. I basically have to 'return' the memory to safely complete the process. If I remove my hand from the persons head or I'm for some reason interrupted and lose the connection, the link to their memory is severed."

"Wow." commented Anna. "So the memory is just, gone from the person's mind with no way to return or fix it?"

"Yes, the memory is gone." answered Emory. "But thankfully it's not irreversible. At the loss of connection, the orb of memory will shrink into a a hand-sized crystalline orb. There's only two ways I've discovered in the rare moments I've actually done this on purpose to fix it. One, I simply reestablish a connection with the person and return the memory; It's actually really easy to do. It's what I did when I discovered I could remove memories by accident; the second one actually doesn't involve me, once the memory has been crystallized, if the person it belongs to wants it back, they place the orb to their head and it returns to them."

"Wow..." stated Elsa. "Well, at least it's fixable."

"Yeah..." replied Emory. "From what I can remember, I've only done it twice on purpose in all my life and every-time, it just hurts my heart to do, so I refused to do it no matter how much money I was offered or how easily it's fixed. At least with Pabbie, the memory is still there, even if it's been changed."

"Jeez..." commented Anna. "I wonder what kind of memory someone would ask to have removed."

"It can't be anything good, that's for sure." commented Elsa.

"Yeah..." added Anna.

"Anyway..." stated Emory. "Of everything I'm willing to do, that is one request I won't fulfill, so don't ask me to do it."

"I won't." replied Elsa, before Anna added...

"Yeah, one memory-altering experience is enough for me."

"Thanks." commented Emory. "Anything else is fair game though." she added, before Anna asked...

"So, we got some insight on how your memory powers work but what about your reality-viewing powers, how does that work? Can you chose what reality you want to look in on?"

"With condition's, yeah." answered Emory. "But to explain my reality-viewing power better, the book analogy works here too, but scaled up. Ok, so for me, it's like I'm in a huge... infinitely huge library, with infinite rows of infinite books which I blindly look through."

"Whoa..." gasped Anna in awe. "There's infinite realities?"

"As far as I know." answered Emory. "I just blindly look into different ones." she added, before Elsa asked...

"But you can focus on certain ones, like the one my doppelganger comes from."

"Yeah." answered Emory. "It's like my memory power. In this huge library, I'm just blindly looking around, but I can narrow down my search by focusing on a person. Take you two for example, I can use either one of you as a reference point to direct me to the section of the library where reality's that have you in them I can look into and once I look into the reality, I can remember and return to it if I find it interesting."

"Like remembering where a favorite book is on a shelf?" asked Elsa.

"Yeah, exactly." answered Emory. "Heh, but the 'books' on this shelf can't be removed and moved around."

"Wow!" gasped Anna in awe. "Since you said our reality and the other Elsa's reality are the closet in similarities, using the library example, our 'books' would be on the same shelf, maybe even next to each other?"

"Heh, maybe." replied Emory, before Elsa asked...

"How did you even discover you could do this?"

"It's just something I've always been able to do as far back as I can remember."

"Oh, hey!" gasped Anna happily. "You said our two realities are the closet in similarities, but to say that, you had to have looked at others, what were the others like? Do you remember?"

"Hmm, yeah, I did peek into other realities with you two in them." answered Emory. "There's actually two that I came across that, concerning you two, I found particularly interesting, they were basically twin realities given how close in similarities they had, in relation to you two."

"Really?" asked the sisters together, but Anna was much more excited, before Elsa added, "What were they like?"

"Well in both of them, neither of you were royalty or sisters." answered Emory. "In one, Elsa was some sort of religious person; she wore some church-like clothing, a dress and her only accessory was a necklace with a cross."

"Ohhh." cooed Anna with a smile as she looked to Elsa. "A faithful, church-going Elsa."

"Heh, well it seems normal so far." stated Elsa with a chuckle, followed by Emory.

"Heh, and that's were 'normal' ends; This Elsa knows an Anna, but the Anna in this reality is a vampire."

"Really!?" gasped Anna happily.

"Yep." answered Emory. "... and this Vampire Anna reeeally liked her Elsa and liked being around her, flirting and trying to seduce her, with varying success."

"That's awesome!" declared Anna, before Elsa asked...

"What was their relationship like?"

"It was friendly." answered Emory. "From what I saw; most times, Elsa wasn't very receptive to the affections, so it was an amusing back and forth of Anna's attempts to seduce Elsa and Elsa turning her down."

"Ohhh." commented Anna with a grin. "So sometimes Vampire Me succeeded?"

"Yep." answered Emory. "But a lot of times, Anna just liked being around Elsa, who cared about her Anna too."

"Well that's cute." stated Anna. "Just like me and my Elsa." she added, before hugging Elsa, who chuckled and asked...

"What about the other reality? The 'twin' of that one."

However, before Emory could answer Anna happily commented...

"Oh! Let me guess, our roles are just flipped; I'm the innocent, church-going girl and Elsa's the vampire who has a crush on me and wants to seduce and corrupt me."

"Heh, yep." answered Emory. "You got it. But where Vampire Anna's more playful and upfront about her feelings for her Elsa. Vampire Elsa's more calm and a 'knows what she wants and gets it', type of person." she added, which prompted a smile from Elsa, who asked...

"So you're saying she's more successful in her attempts to flirt and seduce her Anna?"

"Yep, but this Anna also likes her Vampire Elsa and is more... willing to fall for her Elsa's charms and even initiates the affection sometimes." answered Emory, which prompted a chuckle from Elsa as she looked to Anna and commented...

"Guess she's not the 'innocent church girl' you thought she was."

The remark only urged a giggle from Anna, before she spoke to Emory.

"Hey, can you peek in on them? I wanna see our vampire selves."

"I could." replied Emory. "But I can't control what you'll see."

"That's fine." answered Anna. "Not like we're peeking in on strangers." she added, before Elsa commented...

"Just because their different versions of us doesn't mean we're not strangers or it not being rude."

"Ok, ok." replied Anna with a smile. "If their 'engaged' we leave them be, how about that?"

Elsa simply smiled and shook her head, before answering...

"... OK."

"Awesome!" declared Anna, before looking to Emory. "Ready when you are."

"Alright then..." stated Emory, before the group stopped and Emory lifted her right hand up in front of them, but paused and asked, "Which one you wanna see, Vampire Anna or Elsa?"

"Me!" answered Anna excitedly, which prompted a chuckle from Elsa at Anna's excitement.

"Alright..." replied Emory, before she briefly closed her eyes and took a slow breath, before another window appeared before them.

Elsa and Anna looked on in interest as what was present in front of them was a side view of an Elsa, appearing be be the same age, with long blonde hair styled in a loose pony-tail, dressed in a white T-shirt and light blue pants, standing in front of a stove, holding a pot over a fire with her right hand and using her left to stir a large, metal spoon in what the sisters immediately recognized to be melted chocolate.

"Whoa..." commented Anna with a smile. "It's so weird to see ANOTHER Elsa."

"Yeah..." added Elsa. "But... it's clear she's in a kitchen and she's in front of a stove, but it looks like no kitchen or stove I've ever seen."

"Yeah..." stated Emory watch the Elsa cook the chocolate. "I've seen some crazy stuff looking into other realities, like really weird horse-less carriages that were loud, shiny and really fast."

"Horse-less carriage?" asked the sisters curiously.

"Yeah, and really HUUUGE homes that would stretch into the sky." answered Emory. "There's some really strange realities out there."

"Weird..." commented Anna, before she focused her attention back to what was in front of them. "Can you move the view around, maybe in front of her?"

"Sure." answered Emory, before the view moved in front of Elsa, who seemed none the wiser that she was being watched as her attention was on the chocolate, although with the view change, they did get a better view of her surroundings and the door-less opening directly behind her, as well as the single piece of jewelry they saw her wearing, a golden necklace with a cross.

However, just moments into the view change, the group saw another person walk into view behind Elsa and stand in the doorway with a grin, Anna. She looked just like the Anna watching, only with a mischievous grin on her face and wearing a white gown with a golden cross embroidered into the chest.

"Oh! It's me!" declared Anna happily. "I'm disappointed that she looks so normal though."

"Well she looks a couple yards away." stated Elsa. "Maybe there's differences we can't see right now."

They saw the Anna, tip-toe behind the unsuspecting Elsa, whom lifted the spoon from the chocolate and swept her right hand's index finger under the flowing chocolate and place the finger in her mouth, giving a satisfied moan.

Anna amusingly watched her double stalk closer to her prey, grinning toothily, showing her distinct elongated teeth, before she quickly wrapped her arms around Elsa's belly and declared, 'Gotcha!'

The Unsuspecting Elsa gasped out in fright and a flinch, before she she quickly relaxed into a groan as Elsa and Anna giggled.

---

"Don't DO that! I could've sent chocolate everywhere!"

"I couldn't help it!" answered Anna, before nuzzling Elsa's neck, who squirmed reflexively at the affection and giggled.

"Ah, hehe, S-Stop that, not now. I gotta finish this." she requested, before gasping louder and flinching away with more serious intent get away. "Hey! No biting!" she added, using her right arm to elbow Anna in the side, who retreated from Elsa's blemish-free neck with a chuckle.

"You're so vulnerable though." added Anna, as she moved from Elsa's neck and rubbed her cheek against her's. "My natural instincts kicked in."

"Well control those instincts, I'm busy right now." replied Elsa.

"I wanna cuddle though." whined Anna.

"You always wanna cuddle. That's gonna have to wait until I'm done though."

"Promise?"

Elsa sighed before answering...

"Yes, I promise, now let me go." she stated, squirming in Anna's hold, who soon released her.

"Ok!" replied Anna happily, before walking to her right and Elsa looked to her with a smile, before surprise came to her face.

"Why are you wearing that?"

"Like it?" asked Anna, before she did a spin and placed her hands together in front of her as if about to pray. "I'm a church girl now."

"Oh really?" asked Elsa with a smirk, before she pulled her right hand from the handle of the pot and used it to remove her necklace. "You're gonna need this then."

Upon offering the jewelry to Anna, she quickly backed away with a nervous smile.

"No, no, I don't need any jewelry."

Elsa only continued to smirk, before she placed the necklace in the right pocket of her pants.

"I'm surprised you can wear my dress." stated the Elsa. "It has a cross sown into it."

"I'll endure any hardship to see a smile on your face." replied the Anna with a smile.

"Hehe, hardship?" asked the Elsa amusingly.

"Oh yes!" declared Anna dramatically, placing a hand to her forehead. "I'm weakening myself just wearing this. I feel like I could faint at any moment! I need you to help me remove it." she added, throwing her arms around Elsa and leaning against her.

Elsa simply smiled and shook her head, before she lifted her right hand up between them, placing her hand over Anna's face and pushing her back at arms length.

"I have to pour the chocolate before it overcooks, if you're just here to distract me, then leave, you're just gonna delay our cuddle time you want." stated Elsa, before Anna lifted her hands up to Elsa's on her face and pulled it down with a smile.

"Then can I help?"

"I just have to pour the chocolate in the molds. I don't need-"

"Come on, please." begged Anna with a smile, which prompted a chuckle from Elsa.

"Ok fine. Get the molds from the refrigerator, I put them in there to get a little chill on them."

"Ok!"

---

Following that, the group saw the other Anna depart from from view while the other Elsa looked towards her Anna out of frame with a smile.

"This is a lot cuter and wholesome than I thought it would be!" stated Anna.

"Heh, yeah." replied Elsa. "Wonder what a refrigerator is though." she added, before Emory answered...

"I think it's something used to keep food fresh for a longer period of time."

"Oh." stated Anna. "Like what we use ice for?" she added, before they saw the Anna return into view, carrying three white sheets that had various shapes molded into them and laid the sheets out next to each other, before the Elsa began to pour the chocolate into the shapes.

"I think we've seen enough." stated Elsa. "Let's leave them be."

"Aww, ok." replied Anna, before before with a wave of Emory's right hand, the view of the two other Elsa and Anna's dispersed. "It was great seeing another version of us interact though." she added, which prompted a chuckle from Elsa.

"Yeah, but we didn't see much vampire from Vampire Anna, except her aversion to crosses."

"Yeah... that was disappointing." agreed Anna. "Oh, but what about the other reality? With Vampire Elsa! Show us that one Emory!"

"Really Anna?" asked Elsa.

"Come on, arn't you curious what you as a vampire would be like?" urged Anna.

"Yeah, but we have somewhere to be right now."

"It's not like this is gonna take us hours and Emory doesn't mind, do you?" replied Anna, before Emory answered.

"Nope, not at all. I'm happy to share this with you."

"Just a little peek." urged Anna. "Come on." she added, before Elsa sighed.

"Ok, fine. Just a peek." replied Elsa, before Emory then created another window.

However, while the previous scene they watched was cute and wholesome, the following one clearly did not share that light-hearted mood. The scene revealed showed Anna, who wore glasses that were displaced on her face and had shoulder-length hair, along with her clothing consisting of a long-sleeve shirt and pants, as well as a bag she carried on her back with straps across her shoulders. Anna clearly looked disheveled as she sat on the ground, while in front of her, she and the sisters and Emory saw a white-haired figure with a high-collared black cloak and their back to Anna, holding a man up off the ground by the throat with just her right hand as he struggled in vain to free himself.

"Whoa..." commented Anna wide-eyed, followed by Elsa.

"Did not expect that."

The incident looked to be occurring between two buildings and appeared to be in the twilight of the day. The group then heard the cloaked figure speak, a woman, clearly Elsa's voice, in an aggressive tone.

---

"She is mine!"

The man struggled to breathe with futile gasps for breaths, until Anna quickly stood, and reached to Elsa's shoulder.

"Elsa stop! Don't kill him!"

Elsa looked back, her high collar, thanks to her raised arm, hides her face from the nose down, her red eyes looking to Anna, which prompted a nervous smile from the sisters.

"Well that's intimidating." commented Elsa.

"Yeah..." replied Anna. "The red eyes really do it."

The group saw the Anna smile at her Elsa and added...

"Please, just let him go. No one has to die."

The red-eyed Elsa turns her gaze back to the man she held by the throat, who suddenly gasped for breath, evidence of Elsa loosening her grip, before she spoke again.

"If I see you lay your hands on her again, I'll slit your throat and watch you die like the pathetic waste of a human you are; Do you understand!?"

"Y-Yes!" declared the man. "I'm sorry! Just let me go!"

Moment's later, Elsa released the man, causing him to fall to the ground, coughing but quickly scrambling to his feet and quickly running away. Once the man was more than a dozen yards away and ran out of sight, the group saw Elsa turn to Anna, revealing beneath her cloak, she wore a black suit, but her intimidating aura disappeared in a blink as she quickly placed her hands to Anna's shoulders and face with concern.

"Are you ok!? Are you hurt!?"

"Heh, I'm fine." answered Anna with a smile as she lifted a hand up to Elsa's on her cheek. "He only managed to push me against the wall. Didn't even hit my head on it because of my backpack. I'm just a bit shaken up from how quick it all happened."

"Oh thank goodness." replied Elsa with a relieved sigh, closing her eyes and lowering her head, resting her forehead on Anna's chest, before Anna's smile turned into a grin.

"You came out of nowhere though, were you following me?"

Elsa paused, before she cleared her throat and lifted her head, the previous concern on her face gone.

"No, I was just nearby and heard a woman yell."

"You're lying." commented Anna grinning. "I've been feeling like I'm being watched when I'm headed home around this time a lot for the last few weeks. Are you following and looking out for me?"

"What matters is that your safe." stated Elsa.

"Heh, you're so cute sometimes." commented Anna as she lifted her right hand and tapped her index finger on Elsa's nose, which prompted a chuckle from Elsa. "Thanks for coming to my rescue."

"No need to thank me." replied Elsa as she lifted her right hand and guided a finger along Anna's chin. "I won't let any harm come to you while I'm around."

"So you WERE following me." stated Anna with a grin, prompting Elsa to sigh and place her right hand over her face.

"Ok, fine; yes, I have been following you for the past few weeks. Just around this time after your bible classes with the children. It's getting darker sooner and you walk home alone, you should start taking a bus at least from now on."

"Hehe... well my home isn't that far from the church." answered Anna. "It's nice exercise. But yeah, it is getting darker sooner. But hey..." she added, before stepping to Elsa's left and taking her left arm and leaning against her. "Now you can be my walking buddy and walk me home."

"I intend to." stated Elsa.

"Oh, and you can join me in my classes with the children, just wear a big hat to protect you from the sun."

"Hehe, me entering a church?" asked Elsa with a chuckle. "I don't think so."

"Why?" asked Anna. "It's just a building; not like you're gonna burst into flames or anything just stepping inside and I can invite you in."

"It just seems wrong for me to enter such a place." answered Elsa. "Besides, what if your congregation finds out your involved with a Vampire? I don't want you to be shunned because of me."

"Oh please..." replied Anna with a dismissive wave of the hand. "Sure, the older people may have a problem I'm 'acquainted' with a vampire, but us younger people don't see you all as evil monsters and I'm sure the kids will love you."

"Hehe, that may be. But it's often the elders who have the power." stated Elsa. "I know you like teaching the children, so I'm not willing to put that at risk for you, even if you are. So I'll have to decline." she added, which prompted a disappointing sigh from Anna, who still smiled.

"Alright then, I yield."

"Good, then lets make sure you get home safely." replied Elsa as the two began to depart.

---

"Wow." commented Anna, as Emory closed the window. "That started off intense, but ended cute too."

"Yeah..." replied Elsa with a smile. "I liked it."

"And you wanted to not watch it." teased Anna with a grin.

"Hehe, yeah, yeah..." replied Elsa, before Anna looked to Emory and happy commented...

"Let's watch another!"

However, Elsa quickly stepped in...

"Whoa, whoa... no, two is enough. We can't just stand here invading other people's privacy. It was nice to see, but let's end it here and continue on to the camp."

"Aww." replied Anna. "Well I guess you're right. But it was really nice to see versions of us that weren't human but we're still together. Heh, even in different realities, sister's or not, we're together." she added, before looking to Emory. "Thanks for showing us this Emory."

"You're welcome." replied Emory.

"What about you Emory?" asked Elsa. "Have you ever looked in on different versions of you?"

"Yeah." answered Emory. "In some of my restored memories of Fio, I'd show her different versions of herself and me."

"Well that's nice." commented Anna.

"Yeah." replied Emory with a smile. "I don't remember the particular details of what we saw; but I could just look through one of my memories to see. Compared to my memory powers though, my reality viewing one I didn't use a lot, since I couldn't find a way to profit from it. I mainly used it by request from friends and my siblings growing up. Plus, it didn't hurt that my parents and my brothers and sisters were encouraging of my abilities."

"Hey..." started Elsa, looking a little unsure. "I have a question; If you don't want to answer you don't have to."

Emory looked to Elsa with a smirk, before commented...

"I think I have an idea of what it is; ask away. I'm an open book, to you two."

"Ok." replied Elsa with a little smile. "Still you don't have to answer."

"Noted." commented Emory.

"Have you ever used your memory powers to find out what happen to your birth parents?"

Emory's smile faded slightly as she lowered her gaze.

"I did." answered Emory. "Heh... of all the memory's I've lost... that one stuck with me. Earlier, I mentioned I've always had my abilities as far back as I can remember; To elaborate on that though, I was born with my powers and my birth parents weren't very keen on the thought of their child having the sort of magic I have and brought me to a couple well known for taking in children, saying they were friends of there's; which was a lie and that they would take care of me. They never came back."

"Oh my God!" gasped Elsa, placing a hand to Emory's shoulder. "I'm so sorry!"

"You don't need to be." replied Emory with a smile. "My birth parents clearly weren't fit or willing to take care of me, but they were smart enough to bring me to someone who could and my life turned out great, except for yanno, being trapped for thousands of years."

"Still..." commented Elsa. "I regret asking now, I wasn't expecting something that painful- well, you were in an orphanage, so of course the matter of your birth parents would be painful, I'm really sorry. My curiosity got the better of me."

"Really, it's fine." stated Emory. "I'm not looking for any sympathy. My birth parents didn't want me, but my REAL parents did and I gained a bunch of brothers and sisters in the time I was there." she added, before Anna commented with a smile.

"And in a few minutes, you'll likely be accepted into a new family."

"I'm looking forward to it!" declared Emory happily.

To be continued
