This is an excerpt from a YouTube video titled "How Frozen Could Have Been Drastically Different" in which fairytale YouTuber Abitfrank sums up the Hans Christian Andersen story of the Snow Queen. In this post, as usual, we focus on my favourite subplot, the Fourth Story featuring the Prince and the Princess, for intelligent conversation is a relationship goal for me!
The princess in a realm close by has married someone like Gerda described, right down to his new squeaky boots!
This princess would only marry someone who was handsome and could have an intelligent conversation with her, and hundreds were turned away, except for this one boy who won her heart!
The crow has an "in" to the palace - his tame sweetheart, who is also a crow and who gets a key for Gerda to enter the decadent royal bedchambers by way of a back door of the castle.
Once there, Gerda sees that the Prince is not her Kai, but tells her whole story to the Prince and Princess, who want to help her. They provide her with fancy warm clothing, AND a golden carriage outfitted with a full contingent of staff, as well as candy, fruit, and cookies.
One has a food hangover, but the original friendly crow accompanies Gerda for the first three miles of her journey in the golden carriage.
But because a fancy shiny golden carriage is a pretty conspicuous means of travel through a forest, she is soon waylaid by bandits, who kill all of her men and steal the horses.
They are about to kill her too, when a little spoiled bandit girl stops them.
Gerda asks after the prince and princess, who have apparently gone off to other countries.
