Haven't you seen a spindle before?

[paradisamods]

And haven't you seen how dull and dreary the castle seems of late? The white walls seem almost grey and the marble floors have lost their shine. Even the chandeliers seem made of grimy glass. Perhaps that drowsy spell has even the mighty castle in its grasp. What a thought!

But today the sleepers have risen, all of them feeling an indelible call to shuffle and stumble toward the Insolitus. There is something most precious to them hiding behind that named door, and they would do all they can to protect it. Their eyes may be closed shut, their movements hindered by sleep, but they are keenly aware of anyone seeking to harm their most beloved treasure.

Voices of many sleepers, all of them monotonous, speak in unison:

“ You should have let sleeping dogs lie. ”

Re: OUTSIDE THE DOOR

[There's a bit of a chill to the air, courtesy of the platinum-haired young woman currently sitting with her knees pulled up to her chest near the door.

Make no mistake, Elsa is scared of the approaching people - sometimes it's unclear who they are, though. Sometimes she sees the Duke's guards, their crossbows loaded and aimed at her heart. Sometimes it's Hans, looming over her with his sword raised. And sometimes it's just her subjects, the looks of fear and mistrust clear in their eyes.

She's scared, yes. She's terrified that all these people she sees approaching her will take away that thing most precious to her. But she's even more scared of losing control of her powers again. So she doesn't join those pacing and prowling before the door, waiting to defend their important thing. She stays here, with her back against the wall, trying to will away the frost slowly creeping along the floor.]

[Of all the weird obstacles blocking the path to the door, why did one of them have to be so cold? Nepeta pulls her coat tighter around herself as she tries to duck and dodge everyone in her path to get to the door. She has to find out what's going on, the curiosity is unbearable.

The ice on the floor, however, is only making things difficult. She nearly slips, just barely catching herself and finding some semblance of balance. Where is it even coming from?]

[Anna, quite frankly, has no idea what is going on. She's trying to find everyone - specifically ELSA - instead of trying to make it to a particular place... and when she stumbles onto the scene her sister is in, she instantly knows what's going on and who is responsible]

... Elsa? Elsa, where are you...?! Whatever's going on, it'll be okay...!
