Dear… ‘player’:

I am glad to hear of your decision to change your mind about my canon. As we both well know, one should never judge another solely on their faults — or the faults of those who are indirectly responsible for them. True, the film has had its fair share of setbacks and meddling, but… I think it all worked out for the best, in the end. I hope you do too.

Also.

I have been watching over your shoulder while you were reading the logs to this ‘Dangan Roleplay’. Anna was in it. I can only thank the heavens that she is still safe, but even so… I demand to see her. [Elsa’s expression is icy cold for a second, before she reconsiders what she just said.]

…No. I want to see her. To make sure she’s alright.

Is she, whoever she may be, in a difficult place to reach for you?

She was... trapped. Somehow, she was locked into an underground facility with twenty-nine other people, and they were all told that the only way to escape was by killing another student without being caught.

There are eight now, my sister among them.

I did not know of this until just recently -- but by the time I learned, she and the others had already made their escape.

It's hard not to make harsh demands when your family might be at stake. As someone who's nearly lost the last of his... I hope your sister is alright, as well.

[ ... ]

[Elsa's expression grows concerned very quickly.]

I'm so sorry.

But thank you, sir, for your kindness.

[He shakes his head.] It's... past now, hopefully. Please don't worry.

Of course. It's only natural to be protective of your siblings, so when they're truly imperiled... for better or worse, it tends to bring out one's fiercer side. The fact that you've stayed so calm in such a situation's quite commendable.

Thank you.

[Elsa, and probably Marth, can feel something wrong in those words. Not insincerity -- she is being completely sincere -- but she has fought tooth and nail to keep her composure like this, as befitting a Queen, and it has absolutely ruined her. Only now is she learning how to mix passion and composure, instead of immediately shutting her feelings away.]

My sister Anna... she has done so much for me, and stood by me when no one else would, including myself. And yet, despite that, we have only recently begun talking to one another as companions. I don't want to lose her again.

[He does catch on, but aside from a slight twitch of concerned frowning, doesn't comment on it. It's not his place to judge, and with war (hopefully) at an end, he's only beginning to learn just how difficult running a kingdom can be, imperiled sisters or not.]

She sounds like a lovely girl, your Anna. This place she's in now... there's no way to take it from the outside, is there? I'm afraid my knowledge of it is rather limited, but I'll try to offer whatever assistance I can.

She and her comrades have already escaped their confinement and killed the man who put them there. [Out of necessity -- Anna, at least, would probably have let him live.] She is now in a different universe than me, and I have no way to transcend universes to get to her... so really, it's just a waiting game.

Unless you or your people do have the means to jump between universes, we are both powerless right now.
