The hologram in the middle of the room displays a snowy mountain in Allenolla.
Fian:"Is that mountain our next destination?"
Falco:"Yes"
Aditya:"It would be quite difficult to get there by cars"
Falco:"That's why we will use the jet this time"
Fian and Aditya were ecstatic when they heard that.
Fian & Aditya:"Really? Awesome"
We then followed Falco to the garage, where he continued walking towards the wall at the end of the garage, which turned out to be an elevator, and we all boarded the elevator to the top floor, right before the rooftop.
We were amazed when the elevator's door opened to reveal not only aircraft but also various forms of air vehicles neatly lined up in this section. We all gazed at Fian, waiting for him to retort, but he remained silent.
Fian:"Why are you looking at me like that, guys?"
Ina:"Usually, you or Aditya are the first ones to retort in moments like this, but mostly you"
Fian:"As I said before we went to Atlantis yesterday, I won't ask anymore, I'll just roll with it"
We then boarded the black eagle-shaped jets. Because Falco doesn't require everyone to go, the only ones who went this time were Falco, me, Aditya, Fian, Qori, and Ina.
When we got to the Allenolla snow mountain, Falco landed his jet near an ice palace perched on top of the mountain. Because the castle is entirely made of ice, when it is exposed to sunlight, it reflects the light, making it appear even more elegant and majestic. We then exited the jet to get to the castle, but as soon as we opened the jet door, the cold air of the mountains entered and made us all shudder.
Even though I was already wearing a jacket, I was still shivering because the air is very cold. When I was trying to warm up my body, I felt something warm wrap around my body, and it turned out that Falco had taken off his jacket and put it on me, leaving him only in a black long-sleeved turtleneck t-shirt.
Falco:"Here, wear this"
Adzima:"Thank you, but what about you?"
Falco:"It's okay, I'm used to the cold, I also have this"
Falco pointed to his mask. I then checked on the other to see how they were doing, and it turns out they were already wearing thick coats.
Adzima:"Where did you get those?"
Fian:"I snatched it from somewhere using my ability, don't know where tho"
Adzima:"And you didn't even consider snatching one for me too?"
Fian:"Do you still want it?"
Fian raised his eyebrows at me, and I paused for a while before touching Falco's jacket, which turned out to be very warm.
Adzima:"Not anymore"
Fian and the others then smirked at me.
Fian:"Suit yourself, then"
We then walked to the ice castle, and after carefully examinating it, we discovered that the stairs and the entrance gate to the castle were slightly shattered, as if they had been attacked.
We then advanced cautiously through the stairs so that we did not fall. Then, once inside the castle, we heard a ruckus upstairs. We ran up to see what was going on. The ruckus was coming from the throne room, and we saw a lot of people frozen in ice and Elsa fighting the people with her ice-bending abilities inside the room. We then assisted Elsa to defeat those people, but once we had fought all of them, Elsa suddenly attacked us and frozen us in ice.

Falco and I were able to avoid Elsa's attack, but the others didn't manage to avoid it and are frozen in ice. I then called Elsa to question her action.
Fian:"What the hell? Elsa, why did you attack us?"
But, instead of answering my question, she attacked us again with stinging icicles. I then looked at Falco and asked him.
Fian:"Do you think she's been possessed?"
I then realised that Elsa's eyes were starting to swell and become very red, indicating that she had been crying for a long time.
Fian:"I think no"
Unfortunately, I was a little careless while thinking, and Elsa managed to freeze my feet. She then launched the icicles at me again, but this time they flew away from me instead of hitting me. Falco and I then exchanged nods.
Fian:"Definitely no"
Falco:"You take Elsa, I'll free the others"
Fian:"On it, Captain"
I then teleported behind Elsa, while Falco headed directly to where the others were frozen.
Fian:'Now, what do I do?'
When I was thinking what to do while avoiding Elsa's attack, I suddenly remembered when Artha stopped Galuh, and the situations are quite similar.
Fian:'So maybe, just maybe'
I teleported right in front of Elsa and swiftly hugged her before she could attack me.
Fian:'I hope this works'
I then tried to whisper a few things to Elsa as she began to struggle in my arms.
Fian:"Elsa, please stop. Please remember me. Please remember us"
Fian:"We are not your enemies, I am NOT your enemy"
Fian:"I really missed you, Elsa. From the day we parted, I was always looking for you, but I never found you"
Fian:"So, please forgive me, because it took me this long to finally find you"
I felt that Elsa stopped struggling and returned my hug.
Elsa:"I missed you too, Fian, and I should be the one who apologised, Fian. I hurt you, I attacked all of you. I'm really sorry"
Elsa began crying in my arms, and not long after, I saw the others approach us to comfort Elsa.
Qori:"It's okay, Elsa, you don't need to apologise"
Ina:"Yeah, Elsa, it must be hard for you too, right?"
Elsa:"Thank you, guys"
Elsa and I let go of our hug so Elsa could talk to the others, and then I noticed Falco and Adzima weren't with them.
I then raised my eyebrows at Aditya and asked. Aditya, who understood my question, instantly replied by pointing to where they had been frozen earlier. It turns out Falco and Adzima were still there and flirting with each other as usual. Falco strokes Adzima's cheek, and Adzima smiles at him.
Falco:"Are you okay, princess?"
Adzima:"Yes, thank you, my prince"
Elsa, who was also looking at them, immediately asked us.
Elsa:"Who is that man in black?"
Fian:"His name is Falco, and he is our captain"
Elsa:"Captain? Of what?"
Aditya:"They will tell you later"
Elsa:"So, are they.... You know"
Fian:"We don't know, and we also want to know that, they always flirt like that every day in front of us"
Falco and Adzima then stopped flirting and came closer to us. When Adzima got close to Elsa, she immediately hugged her, as did Qori and Ina. Meanwhile, Aditya and I moved a little further from them and got closer to Falco. Aditya then whispered to us so the girls wouldn't hear what we were saying.
Aditya:"I still have my consciousness when I was trapped inside the ice, so do you know what happened to Elsa?"
Aditya:"She's not possessed, right? So why did she become like that?"
Fian:"I would like to know that too, but I'm glad I can bring her back"
Falco went silent for a moment to think.
Falco:"If I had to guess, based on the number of people frozen here and the damaged parts of the castle, it appears that Elsa doesn't know about Zalgo or the Soul Devourers"
Falco:"All she knows is that her people, who are most likely already possessed, attacked her without warning, so she has no choice except to fight them"
Falco:"And that definitely broke her heart, so she froze her heart to not trust anyone anymore and fight whoever stood in her way to survive, even if it hurt her so bad"
Fian:"We really need to defeat Zalgo and the Soul Devourers so that no one gets hurt anymore"
Aditya:"Isn't that the reason we are assembled?"
Falco:"Yes, it is, and we will. I promise you, all of you, we will win this"
Aditya and I nodded at Falco's words. We then saw that the girls had finished hugging, and Adzima explained why we were here to Elsa.

Elsa was delighted to join us when I explained the situation to her. When the girls and I hugged, I saw Falco, Fian, and Aditya whispering to each other, but when I looked at them again after hugging, they had already finished talking. We immediately returned to the jet and flew straight back to the mansion, leaving the people frozen in the castle. Falco told us that the ice that froze them not only restricted them but also preserved them, similar to what happened to us when we were frozen earlier, therefore, it would be best if we let them stay frozen at least until we defeated Zalgo.
After we got to the mansion and headed to our own rooms, I realised I was still wearing Falco's jacket, so I went looking for him, and luckily, he was also resting in his room. He opened the door quickly after I knocked on his bedroom door.
Adzima:"Hi, I forgot to return your jacket"
I then give him back his jacket.
Adzima:"Thank you for lending it to me"
Falco:"You are welcome, princess"
Falco then asked me before I got back to my room.
Falco:"Don't you want to know what I was talking about with Fian and Aditya?"
Adzima:"No, I know if whatever it is you were talking about is important for me to know, you will definitely tell me, but if you don't, then I don't mind"
Falco:"Okay then"
I then squeezed his hand firmly and smiled at him.
Adzima:"Have a good night, my prince. See you tomorrow"
Falco also smiled at me, and then he kissed the back of my hand.
Falco:"You too, princess"
I then returned to my room in a very happy mood, and there was no need to say that I had a sweet dream.
