Hello.

[ Elsa's eyes are bright as she sits on camera, posture perfect, expression even. she's not sure if this is The Thing To Do Here, but it feels right to introduce herself, as others have been doing before her. if she's going to be working together with these people to fight for a common cause, she would like to get to know them. so there's no Queenly Air going on, just- a friendly face! well. she hopes she looks friendly. she's trying. she's still really new at this! ]

I am Queen Elsa, of Arendelle, and I've been chosen by the Seelie kingdom to help in their efforts to protect -my Shard. Well, all of our Shards, correct? And this kingdom. I'm honored to be here, truly. [ even though an inVITATION IN ADVANCE WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE ahem ahem anyway. it's clear Elsa doesn't have all the facts on this fight, but she's working with what she knows, yeah.] War isn't entirely foreign to me, in concept, although I admit there hasn't been a time of war in my kingdom since I was born, so. I'll try my best to help, in whatever way I can, although I'll need to look to those with experience for guidance. [ but I won't slay anybody, that's insane. wait, shh, don't say that. that's a very undiplomatic thing to say. ]

Which is why I'm reaching out now, in hopes of finding someone that might be able to teach me how to use my given talents to help. Especially now, with the notice of the monsters [ worms, ew. ] that are attacking the land. In the interest of full disclosure- I have ice magic. And as uncommon as it is back in Arendelle, I know that isn't the case here, so I'm hoping that being honest about that isn't as unheard of as it was back home. I'm hoping to find someone willing to teach me how to use my magic both effectively, and safely, in this ..situation. [ she can't just go around making with the icicle stabby on everything they're told to fight. ..can she? ]

Also, I have been looking for one young woman in particular, her name is Anna. Princess Anna. [ this is so the important part here, finding her sister. even if she was trying hard to make it sound casual and NOT AT ALL WORRIED. and hey, yeah, she's going to use their titles. she's proud of their titles, because she's proud of her kingdom. rep-re-sent! ] Anna, if you're here? Let me know, please. I'd like to meet with you as soon as possible.

How's tutor-searching, Your Majesty? [Even though he was more clumsy with meeting Princess Hilda, Roxas feels like being a little bit of a tease to lighten his current mood. Aka guilty as all hell for not helping with the worms.]

I'll keep an eye out for Anna, but I'm also looking for somebody too. His name is Sora, and he's hard to miss. Brown hair, kinda like mine, and big yellow shoes. He's a big goofball. [Although he has his doubts Sora will appear if he currently has his Shard.]

[glacio]

It's going quite well, thank you.

[ damn kids!! just kidding. she doesn't mind being teased about her title, mostly because she heard that a lot from Anna when they were very little. ]

I'll keep my eye out for Sora as well, Roxas. As for Anna, she has red hair, blue eyes like mine. She's a big goofball too, and proudly so.

[13th_member]

Sounds like they'd really get along. [All that energy....]

But it's good you found someone. Better than what I had to go through when I was first learning mine. Heh, being randomly punched in the face is definitely no way to start off a session.

[glacio]

I bet they would. They're probably together right now, goofing around instead of paying any attention to their lockets. [ grin ] Though Anna gets along with just about everyone, it's one of the very many traits of hers that I quite envy.

Your tutor punched you?

[13th_member]

Sora's the same way. He makes friends in every world he visits.

And yeah, he got me good. [Roxas rubs his cheek from the memory.] He was a big guy, didn't talk a lot. Really strong too. He may have almost knocked me unconscious, but he did teach me how to use light pretty quickly.

[glacio]

-- Oh, so has this sort of thing happened to you before?

But why would he do such a thing? Good tutor or not, there is no excuse for punching a potential student.

[13th_member]

Uh, well...yeah. I wasn't really picked up by the greatest of people, but it's not like he did that much damage. I've been through much worse just from fighting Heartless.

[Cue Twilight Thorn battle and the many times he fell headfirst onto that ground. Fun times.]

[glacio]

Who are the Heartless? Or- what are they, maybe is the right question?

[13th_member]

Creatures of darkness. They try to invade other worlds, steal people's hearts, that sort of thing. We're lucky that they're not here...which is kind of weird too. [Sigh. Weird world is weird.]

If they do show up, I'll probably be one of the first to know.

[glacio]

-- Literally steal their hearts?

[ how gruesome :c ]

How do you defend yourself against such a thing?

[13th_member]

Yup, but it's easy. Just beat 'em up until they disappear. They'll probably pop up again later, but at least that gets rid of them to give you time to get away.

But if you do find some, tell me straight away. I've got something that will destroy them permanently.

[glacio]

Beat them up?

[ that's the second time today she's had someone mention like, being able to fight. only she's never had to consider it. hhhhh. maybe her ice could freezes these Heartless ]

I will certainly let you know, Roxas. You have a weapon you can use against them?

[13th_member]

[Freeze everything, Elsa, do iiiiiiiittttt.]

Yeah, I got two. [Give him a moment while he switches to start up a video...of his hand? Wait--

There's a flash of light, then bam! Oathkeeper bursts into existence in Roxas' grip.]

It's a keyblade. Seen anything like it before?

[glacio]

[ freeze everything if only he knew. but yeah, she switches her feed to video as well, because it seems right to, and it's just in time for this big :O! face to appear ]

Oh! I haven't, no. Where did it come from? It just- appears in your hand when you want it to?

[13th_member]

[D'aww, cutie queen.]

Where did it come from? Ah...that's a very good question that I don't think I can answer. But yeah, my keyblades come when I call them, although they can be annoying at times too.

[For instance-- Roxas lets go and moves the camera to show Oathkeeper clattering on the floor, but after a few seconds, it disappears and pops back into his hand again.] Even if I didn't want it, I'm still stuck with it.

[glacio]

[ ... she doesn't mean to laugh, but ]

Oh.

That probably shouldn't remind me of a little snowman I know, but it does, in a way.

He's sweet, he is. But I had no idea that when I built him, I also brought him to life. He means a lot to me, because of- a number of reasons, but he sure has a very curious mind. One that's going to end up getting him in trouble eventually, I know it.

[13th_member]

[Sorry, what? Roxas is sort of stuck on one piece of that:]

You can bring things to life? That's some magic power you got there, Elsa! No wonder you got dragged here.
