Added DiffLines:
* WarIsHell: The war between Arendelle and Weselton is definitely shown this way, especially in Nexø's POV sequences.
* WeAreStrugglingTogether: Generals Potter and Windsor explain why you shouldn't have two generals commanding one army. Meyers and his captain lampshade the fact that with Arendelle army so close, the two commanders should probably focus more on fighting the enemy than each other.

The story picks up two months after the end of ''{{Disney}}/{{Frozen}}''. Prince Hans arrives in the capital of the Southern Isles, arrested. His older brother, king Friedrich, is torn between punishing him as he should, and his fourteen very vocal siblings who demand justice to be served... to Elsa. Some of Hans' and Friedrich's siblings decide to use resulting chaos for their own schemes, and Hans has his own plans as well. Meanwhile, in Arendelle, there is a faction in the army that demands Elsa's powers to be put for a good use as a tool of war - and they don't feel like accepting "no" as an answer. And then there's mysterious smuggler Felix Drachner, who appears to have his hand everywhere, but how could he profit from the steadily growing chaos?

!!This fanfic contains examples of:
* AdaptationNameChange: Royal family of the Isles is called "von Schwalbe", in opposite to "Westerguard" as it was in the film. Westerguard, on the other hand, turns into an island that Hans rules for his brother.
** In a bit of FridgeBrilliance, with how power hungry Hans is, it would seem fit to him to introduce himself to Anna as a ruler of Westerguard rather than one of many princes of the Isles.
* AdultFear: Friedrich constantly worries that he'll strike his wife or daughter in one of his UnstoppableRage phases. [[spoiler:His fears prove true. It's possible that Michael engineered it.]]
* BadassGay: Prince Ferdinand. Even with one hand, he still manages to survive a giant storm and defeat two huge, armed guardsmen with no weapons.
* BalconyEscape: With window rather than balcony, but that's how Hans' escape starts.
* BedroomAdulteryScene: Twice.
** In ''Diplomatic Espionage'', we find out that Margaret and Hunter have an affair when Kristoff peeks into their room by accident when roaming around the castle.
** Implied in ''The sides of conflict'' when half-asleep Eric (Margaret's husband) hears somebody walking around the room. He presumes it's a servant, but it's probably Hunter leaving.
* ChainsOfCommanding: Nexø feels deaths of his subordinates hard - perhaps too hard for his mental health. He certainly seems to be getting more and more depressed as the story goes on.
* ChekhovsGunman: A few.
** Prince Ferdinand is mentioned in passing in chapter two as being missing due to navy dragging him off for pirate hunt. Come ''Fit of rage'', fourteen chapters later, and he [[spoiler:saves Anna from smugglers who kidnapped her]], and even becomes a POV.
** Patrick Schneider appears briefly in chapter six, and reappears in chapter ''twenty'' six with important information.
** Valdemar Schwalzmaar, the man who ferries Hans to Westerguard, appears some chapters later and tells Michael of Hans' whereabouts.
** Felix Drachner is mentioned so many times it looks like he's everywhere. His gun hasn't fired yet.
* ContinuationFic: As is clear in description.
* ContinuityNod: When escaping from Koenigsberg castle, Hans muses that he used to climb around it as a child and that the skill came in handy when he met Anna. You know, when they sang ''[[http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/Love_is_an_Open_Door Love is an Open Door]]''.
* ConvenientEscapeBoat: ''Lucky Zephyr''. It leaves Koenigsberg just before Friedrich orders to close the port, taking Hans with it.
* CoolShip: ''Northern Wind'', Ferdinand's ship. It's freshly new, built specifically to deal with storm conditions, and kept in nigh-perfect state by Ferdinand's orders.
* CrypticBackgroundReference: The Tampere Empire is apparently some neighbor to Arendelle and Corona and the biggest country in the region, but we never see a person from there.
* EvilMentor: Berg turns out to be this for Kai.
* EvilPrince: Michael, even moreso than Hans.
* HairTriggerTemper: King Friedrich has... anger issues. Honestly, he bursts into UnstoppableRage with barely any provocation.
* HeroicBastard: WordOfGod is that Friedrich isn't late king Klaus' son, but product of his mother's affair. He's easily the most likable (perhaps apart from Ferdinand) of von Schwalbes.
* IdiotBall: King (prince?) Charles of Weselton seems to have caught it when Kai and Kristoff arrived. Honestly. He's [[spoiler:at war]] with the queen who can control ice, he knows what happened to Hans, and he knows that Elsa's patience has it's limits. And he still prolongs the negotiations to get better terms and claims that Elsa's ''weak''. His own son calls him out on this.
* MassivelyNumberedSiblings: It was present in the movie as well, but ''WAWQ'' amps it up a bit, adding two sisters to Hans' thirteen brothers.
* TheMole: A heroic example - Jeremiah Lee is Madsen's spy in Weselton court.
* NoNameGiven: Weseton's scout captain and Meyer's superior is never named.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: Hauser and most of the navy on Westerguard is in it because he wants to stick it to the king.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Kai's father, baron Hakan Madsen, is said to look like elder statesman despite being in early forties, largely due to the fact that he grayed early.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. Friedrich's daughter's name is Anna (although everybody calls her Annie), and Hans' late father shares the name with very much alive admiral Klaus Hauser.
* OriginalCharacter: The story is full of those.
** In Arendelle, there are majors Madsen, Andersen and Lund, generals Madsen, Kristiani, Rasmus and Berg, colonel Dahl, captain Nexø and his team.
** In Weselton, prince Eric, his parents, generals Windsor, Potter and Carter, colonel Hunter, mister Lee, corporal Meyers and his unnamed captain.
** In Southern Islands, there are the princes, Friedrich's wife and daughter, captain Braun, sergeant Schneider, Valdemar Schwalzmaar and his wife, Gunther, admiral Hauser and everybody on the island of Westerguard.
* RevolutionWillNotBeCivilized/RevolutionWillNotBeVillified: Zig-zagged with [[spoiler:secession of Westerguard]]. On one hand, it seems oddly neat - although it helps that the locals are all with revolutionists, and they are 90% of local population. On the other, ship sequester proves to be more bloody than anticipated, and ugly part of revolution - firing at once-friends - if briefly visited.
* SeductionProofMarriage: Not marriage yet, but Anna is not even remotely interested in any man other than Kristoff.
* ShipSinking: If anybody suspected that Mapograph plans to ship Anna and Ferdinand, the revelation that latter is gay certainly killed that.
* TheSpymaster: colonel Hunter for Weselton and general-baron Madsen for Arendelle. The latter is much more likable, and seems better (or more loyal) at his job.
* StraightGay: If he hadn't implied that, you wouldn't guess Ferdinand is gay.
* UncannyFamilyResemblance: Ferdinand and Hans appearance wise, and Michael and Hans character wise.
** Explicitely averted with Kai Madsen and his father. The former is mentioned to be [[YoungerThanTheyLook Younger Than He Looks]], while baron Madsen quite the opposite.
* UnstoppableRage: King Friedrich's HairTriggerTemper manifests itself like that. It's so unstoppable, he has to lock himself in the room until it passes.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Generals Kristiani, Berg and Olafsen. Despite what their plan looks like, they honestly believe that what they do is for the good of Arendelle.
* WhamEpisode: Twice.
** ''Dead man walking'': We learn what the Berg's true plans are and [[spoiler:Kai and Kristoff are just about to tell someone about it... and then the avalanche strikes.]]
** ''Fighting the waves'': ''Northern Wind'' is fighting a huge storm when [[spoiler:Westerguard keep opens fire at it. Anna and Ferdinand appear to be the only survivors and are now stranded in the foreign land, with little hopes of survival.]]
* XanatosSpeedChess: Hans outright admits that he doesn't have any plan and just works with what he has.
-->'''Hans''': ''Planned''? [[spoiler:Dear Anna]], I thought you'd know me better! There's no ''plan''. I make it all up as I go along!
** Michael appears to do the same. It seems he had an idea to take over the Isles for years, but now he's using all the opportunities he can get.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: Kai is mentioned to look much younger than his twenty five years.
* YourCheatingHeart: Eric's wife (and Hans' sister) is cheating on him with colonel Hunter.
