Frozen 2 ends with Elsa staying in the forest and Anna returning to be queen of Arrendelle. But what happens next? Sure Elsa has learned to love herself and embrace her magic as the 5th spirit. But will she find a kindred spirit? Someone she can be vulnerable with and perhaps even romance? How would that even develop in the 1840s Scandinavia in a time when they didn't have modern words or notions of same-gender love? Let's explore what could happen next...
After Anna returns to the castle...
After weeks of feasts and celebrations, it's time for Anna, Kristof, Olaf and Sven to return to Arrendelle. But Elsa had realized that the Forest is where she belongs and she must stay to be fully connected with the spirits.
"Now for a real plan.." she thinks as Anna and Kristoff ride off in Sven's carriage.
"Where should I stay?" "You can stay with me!" Honeymaren interjects eagerly.

"Don't be silly," Yelena scolds, "there is an official guest hut that Elsa should make her home." "But she's really technically not a guest now that's she's staying permanently" Honeymaren returns. Elsa looks between Honeymaren and Yelena then back and forth. As much as she was drawn to her new friend, she thought to herself, what would a queen do? Wait, I'm not a queen! I can do what I want! Regardless, what's the best way to start a new life? Go with the flow. "It's ok," she smiled and put a reassuring hand on Honeymarren's arm, and turned to Yelena. "I'll follow whatever is the custom here." As she followed the elder to her new lodging she turned and smiled at Honeymaren. "See you tomorrow" she whispered with a wave. "See you tomorrow, Elsa."

The next morning, Honey woke with a surge of energy. It was early dawn and for some reason, she was nervous about asking Elsa to go for a walk. "Deep breath, H, you got this."

She was known as the bravest warrior in the village, willing to chase giants, scale mountains, and defend against attack in the most treacherous of situations... So why did she pause now?
She knew why. Elsa was a goddess. The moment she stepped into the forest, she glowed with magic. A magic Honeymaren had only dreamed was possible. Then Elsa kept shinning. Her light got stronger, as she faced the wind, and the fire, and marched off to the North Sea to free the Northundra as well as the Arrendelle people. Honeymaren was stunned by her then. But then Elsa returned. Full power unleashed. Her inner strength released as she stepped into full herself as the 5th spirit. Honeymaren had spent her whole life studying the Spirits, trying to find the key to free her people. But then one fall day that key walked into camp and changed everything. After Elsa returned, her light radiated so brightly is some days it felt like it blocked out the sun.
