QUEEN OF THE NORTH

                          ❝  𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐏𝐀𝐒𝐓 ? ❞  fair  brows  arching  inquisitively  ,  head  canting  marginally  as  they  rest  atop  her  grandmother.  there  wasn’t  an  awful  lot  that  she  KNEW  about  the  older’s  past  ,  but  if  there  was  one  thing  that  skaadi  was  always  willing  to  do  ,  it  was  LEARN  more  about  her  family.  &  especially if  it  meant  spending  more  time  with  her  grandmother.  ❝  i’d  LOVE  to  know  more  ,  grandma  , ❞  she  murmured  , shifting  closer  to  the  other  woman  ,  head  resting  atop  her  shoulder.  

perhaps it was a too simple description but that was really what it was all about. her past. without the past, nothing in the future would have happened. if she hadn’t found love with agnarr, a fifth element wouldn’t have been born. if she hadn’t agreed to the separation between her daughters, they wouldn’t have drifted apart. regret could drown you  &  she knew exactly what drowning felt like.   ❝   it's not too exciting   ❞    she murmured as lips pressed against her granddaughter’s forehead, gently wrapping her arms around her properly.   ❝  but it gives an explanation for your powers   ❞  

Recognition and shock rushed through Elsa’s blood like ice. A chill down her spine like none she had ever felt from any cold. That voice, vibrant as a childhood memory she held to her heart- But this was not a memory. This was reality and present. And the woman who stood before her that welcomed her into her arms was as real as the earliest memory Elsa had of her. And her embrace just as warm.

“Mother!” Elsa wept, clutching the woman tightly, as if she’d vanish if her grip faltered even a moment. Tears of joy, unbridled and overflowing ran down her cheeks. “H-How did- Wha- what are you- How is this possible?!”

so  many  questions  and  so  little  answers.  she  could  go  on  for  hours  about  what  they  had  been  through  but  that  wasn’t  what  was  important.  elsa  &  anna  was  important  , her  darling  daughters  that  she  never  thought  she’d  see  again.  they  were  here  though  , she  held  her  oldest  in  her  arms  , as  tight  as  she  could  manage  , afraid  to  let  go  in  case  she’d  slip  away  from  her.

since the 1800 centruy ( and long before that ) they’ve been a minority that other religions has tried to push to the side by destroying religious artifacts & broken families apart. 

Iduna: sings about getting drowned

“You’ve been here all this time…both of you.” Elsa and Anna both were still struggling to process these facts in their own minds. Anna would rather they do it together like they promised but Elsa thought it best they separate and try to get to the bottom of this curse Ahtohallen has placed over the forest and she hopes, see a reconciliation between their parents.

“I just don’t understand how after everything you’ve been through to get here, you could choose opposing sides. Yelena asked why Ahtohallan would choose an Aredellian to gift magic to. It was because of the two of you, because of your love for each other and you can’t even look at each other anymore without fighting. Love is supposed to be stronger than this.”

once  there  had  been  love  between  the  royal  couple  , a  love  burning  so  bright  she  thought  it  never  would  die  but  as  things  change  , so  does  people.  they  had  chosen  to  believe  different  stories.  agnarr  had  sided  with  the  royal  guards  &  she  herself  had  sided  with  her  people  , her  family.  there  wasn’t  anything  wrong  with  that  , they  wanted  answers  , they  had  gotten  answers  , just  different  kinds.
