Jack stared at her, completely perplexed. He began pacing back and forth in her room while she watched him with her eyes from where she sat on her bed. "What do you mean you went to Ledas?! It doesn't make any sense. First of all, you can't just get there. The realms are connected through entry points. You have to travel from there. Second of all, those entry points are closed from everyone except the Seasons. I can't even fathom how you got there."
"You don't believe me," Elsa whispered, her expression hurt.
Sighing, Jack sat on the bed beside her and slowly, cautiously wrapped his arm around her and pulled her close. Surprisingly, she didn't try to pull away. "It's not that at all. Actually, what worries me is that I do believe you. I don't know what this means. I don't know what I'm supposed to do with you."
"Hey," Elsa scowled as she playfully punched his arm. "How did you find me, anyways? I thought you were in Lainoa."
"I was. But you called to me, so I came. And I found you completely and utterly unconscious. Don't scare me like that again."
"Don't tell me you're actually starting to care about me," Elsa teased as she nudged him playfully with her elbow.
"Well, I can't," Jack laughed. "If I did, I would be lying." A change in the atmosphere alerted Jack to the arrival of another Season, Theo to be exact. Jack got to his feet in anticipation. "Incoming. It's about to get a little bit windy in here."
Elsa looked at him confusedly, but the question in her eyes was answered as soon as a shrill wind swept up in the room, throwing sheets every which way and causing the painting on the wall to hang by its hinges. And then Theo appeared with a troubled expression.
"Jack! Okay, I have a lot of news. First, we have to... First we... We have to start with..." He trailed off completely as he just stared dumbstruck at Elsa. A wave of jealousy coursed through Jack. Theo could stare at anybody else like that, just not Elsa.
"Get on with it," Jack growled, a little impatiently.
"I'm sorry, you just look like someone I used to know." He glanced up at Jack before he pressed his lips tight together in silence. Jack didn't know what that was supposed to mean, but he didn't have a chance to ask before Theo continued. "There have been a couple hemorrhages in the seal. A giant crossed the border into Ledas and wreaked havoc before we were able to get it out and send it back to Vatra. We need your help in order to seal the holes."
Elsa gasped, her eyes wide. "Is it my fault? Am I making the holes? I really don't mean to be. I'm so sorry." Jack didn't want to confirm it to her face, but yeah, she probably was the one making holes in the seal and that was a very bad thing. "We don't know for sure... But maybe. Which means you'd be better off coming back to Ledas with me."
"But, Jack. I thought you said you couldn't bring anyone in or out."
Raising his eyebrows expectantly at Theo, Jack waited for his answer.
"This is an exception," Theo answered. "King Anders of Silva has granted this request as a one-time thing. You may bring her back with you, Jack."
"King Anders?" Elsa asked quizzically.
Jack grinned and squinted his eyes as he made the symbol for tiny with his fingers. "He's a bit on the small side, but he's been King of Silva for just over five hundred years."
"Don't you be dissing my king," Theo joked, using some of the human slang that he must have heard recently.
"No dissing happening here," Jack laughed amusedly. And to Elsa, he said, "He's King of the Fae in the forest realm. So yes, he's a bit smaller than all of us, but don't let that fool you. He's as fearsome as they come."
