Description
There was silence, not a single sound or movement in the large palace of Arendelle.

In one of the many rooms the 13 prince of the Southern isle slept calmly, just yesterday he was fearing for his life, for his home and his brother, but now though he no longer feared he was left terribly confused, why did the Snow queen wanted him if she didn't want to kill him?

Soon his ears heard footsteps and the door clicked as it opened, he tried to move, to open his eyes, but he found himself to tired to do so. A soft hand pressed itself on his shoulder and a female voice whispered in his ear "It was very brave what you did for your brother, for that your the only one who will be able to thaw my sisters frozen heart, don't fear or worry, no harm will come"

Hans felt the hand move and then leave quietly, finding his strength again he opened his eyes and looked to find the woman was gone leaving him with questions.

Who was she? What was she talking about the frozen heart? Who was her sister?

"Strange..." though Hans deciding before looking around, quickly finding something off about the room, resting in the arm chair was an outfit laid out as if he was expected to wear it and a note on it.

How was this possible? He was sure he locked the door before going to bed. Slowly getting up Hans walked over to the outfit and looked over it.

It was an all blue outfit, a white shirt, dull grayish blue pants with a matching winter coat that had wavy patterns and a purple interior.

Shaking his head he reached and took the note and read it, it said "Breakfast will be served in the dinning room, snowflake will take you there",

"Snowflake?" though Hans before taking the outfit and changing into it, strange how well it fitted him, when he was dressed there was a knock on the door.

"Guess I see who Snowflake is" though Hans before walking over and opening the door, looking he had a hard time admitting that the tiny snowman before him was not cute, it looked like a toy he had when he was a small child.

"Hello Snowflake?" said Hans, Snowflake just smiled and began to walk, once a good distance away from him he stopped and looked back at him,

"Okay" said Hans before closing the door behind him and began to follow Snowflake across a hallway and down some grand stairs and finally into a large room where a long table was set for one, on a plate rested a fine meal of porridge, a side of poached egg and a goblet full of juice.

Walking over Hans looked around and waited for somebody, perhaps the Snow queen to show up and invite him to dine.

Looking up at Hans Snowflake nudged him and then waddled over, pushing the chair back,

"I guess I am eating alone" though Hans before sitting down and pulling the chair closer, picking up a spoon he smelled the porridge before taking a bite, his eyes lit up a bit before eating it with great appetite, like the dinner he had last night this was the finest meal he had ever tasted.

When finished he got up and said "Thank you" before moving away.

The rest of the day Hans spent his time exploring the vast palace, there were many rooms yet he found only a hand full of them were open while the rest were locked under lock and key.

Maybe he would have tried to force them open, but he didn't dare to...what if the Snow queen caught him? She would probably decide to kill him.

Wisely deciding to ignore the locked rooms Hans continued to look around till lunch where while he ate he heard music coming from an unknown source.

Finishing he went out for a walk where he found Marshmallow still standing guard over the gate, watching him as he moved about the snow garden, as if making sure he would not escape.

The sun slowly set when Hans went back inside the palace for dinner, taking his seat he expected to dine alone for he hadn't seen anybody dine with him, but he soon learned that he was wrong...

When he sat down he quickly noticed the change of temperature in the room, it went from warm to ice cold in a matter of seconds and it continued to get colder, all around he saw ice began to creep over the walls, ceiling and door as footsteps were heard, getting closer and closer.

Getting up Hans was torn between fear and a strange sense of calm, the fear was telling him that it was the Snow queen who was going to show up to probably hurt or murder him, then the strange calm reassured him as it played over and over the voice he heard "don't fear or worry, no harm will come"

The door slowly opened, Hans was not going to run away or hide even if he was it would be too late, he stood there, waiting to see who or what was the Snow Queen.
