The Reason

Chapter 6

Chapter 6: Starlight, Star bright

Elsa made a mental note to have a conversation with Cynthia about her clothing the next time she saw her. The snow queen loved the seamstresses from Arendelle and what they had been given, but this was the most comfortable thing she had ever worn in her life. The nightgowns were average, she'd admit that, but Cynthia's casual and active wear was something different all together.

She wore a simple, long sleeved shirt that was the color of dried leaves. The fabric moved and conformed to her body like a tight knit cocoon that felt as if she wasn't wearing anything at all. One thing she was worried about was a V shape on the chest of the shirt that was tied together by string, but still showed a bit too much of her cleavage for her taste, causing her to try and tie it as tightly as she could. The skirt was similar, snug around her hips and posterior, and belled outwards just below the knee for easy leg movement.

And the boots.

Elsa loved wearing heels, but they could become uncomfortable, especially when she was on her feet all day. With Cynthia's knee high boots, and a very small amount of heel, she felt like she was walking on squishy clouds.

"Elsa, would Cynthia mind if we take all of her clothes?" Anna was twirling in more of Cynthia's outfits that were similar to what Elsa was wearing. Instead of a skirt, she was wearing extremely tight fitting pants, that seemed more like a second skin.

"Possibly if we ask nicely."

Kristoff chuckled. "You both realize she carries guns right?"

Anna rolled her eyes. "Well Elsa has ice magic. What's your point?"

"Cynthia is a trained killer—"

"—but she's a queen! And I'm a princess. And she only kills monsters, so ha!"

His head tilted with raised brows. "You really want her clothes don't you?"

"I really want her clothes! Feel this! It's stretchy!" Elsa had left the two to their argument, shaking her head at the two as if they were already married. "Elsa where are you going?"

With her hand on the door handle, she looked over at her sister. "To talk to Tharog about getting us back to Arendelle."

"I'll come with!" She skipped beside her, hooking her arm with her own. "I wanna see the castle."

Leaving the guest room they strolled slowly through the castle looking for Tharog. Elsa asked one of the servants who pointed them in the direction of his office which would take them up to another level. None of the castle was off limits to them, so they were able to move freely without the feeling of intrusion. Taking the time to observe the halls, they saw paintings, exquisite rugs, and dragon carved candle holders and statues. Of course Elsa had to stop Anna from touching everything she could get her hands on. Anna also pointed out the chairs strategically placed along the walls. Possibly for Tharog when he needed to rest his leg.

"Oh Elsa looky!" Like a toddler, Anna dragged her sister to an open, circular room filled with enormous statues of dragons of various species and types. While Anna pointed out the different ones, Elsa was drawn to a particular dragon that seemed to be covered in ice. At the bottom of the statue was a small plaque that read, "Rare".

"This one looks like Corwin." Anna pointed to a dragon statue with lava dripping from rock-like scales. "Maybe I should draw a mustache on it."

Elsa chuckled looking over another statue with lightning coming from its mouth. Also with a plaque saying "rare". "Go for it. I wouldn't tell." They meandered about for a while longer before hearing guttural growling coming from somewhere close by.
