Anna

In the same region, decades after Ingrid vanished, a child named Annaliese was born to a farming family. Her older sister died young — some said of fever, others whispered frozen lungs. Anna grew up with a strange emptiness beside her, talking to shadows and to the cold wind that brushed her cheek like a hand.

She became known for her warmth — always helping, always smiling — yet her kindness bordered on obsession. She could not bear to be alone. People said she would talk to the snow at night as if waiting for an answer.

When her parents died in an avalanche, she was found wandering barefoot through the frost, carrying a lantern. “I can feel her,” she kept saying. “She’s just behind the veil.”

Annaliese spent her life searching the mountains, following storms that others fled from. At her death, a diary was found filled with letters to her sister — all addressed to “Elsa.”

In one entry, she wrote:

“The cold does not take her away from me — it gives her back.”

The story spread as a ghostly tale of eternal love between sisters divided by nature, not death. When Frozen II was being researched, folklorists pointed to the legend of The Sisters of Nordmarka — one who froze the world, the other who thawed it with love.
