Description Last time, Prince Hans was brought to Hell in order to assist Hild in a deceptive scheme. Since Heaven had been on alert since its recovery, Hild could not make direct contact with Elsa to get her plan underway, so she was requesting Hans' assistance and his payment being the throne of Arendelle given to him by Elsa unconditionally. Hans was of course skeptical of such a deal, knowing that anything involving the ice queen was troublesome and not worth any risk. However, Hild was happy to reveal how her plan was going to work by showing off her magical mirror. Before Hans could look at it for himself, Hild explained that looking into the reflection would transform Elsa into the wicked goblyn she was once threatened to become. Hans remaining doubtful with such an idea was shocked to see his three demonic captors acting differently towards him due to Hild's absolute control over them. Once revealed that Elsa's heart was brought back to evil, Hild would be able to control her will without any issue and Elsa would give Hans everything he needed to take the kingdom for himself. With the deal on the table and the eyes on the prize....Hans needed a chance to get to Elsa. The plan was set, only time could tell what could come of it.

It had been several days since Peorth arrived with Lilith to beg for Elsa's audience but it was beginning to take a hopeless turn. Anna was coming into a room where Lilith and Peorth were standing inside waiting as Peorth frowned. "Let me guess...get out?" She asked and Anna's head lowered. "I begged her to at least come down just to talk about anything other than Lilith, but--"You dont have to apologize on Elsa's behalf. To be honest, I should have known better than to expect Elsa's cooperation after what she endured." She frowned and looked at Lilith. "Im afraid I can't return what you seek unless Elsa forgives me--"Save it, Lilith! You have no wish to move and neither does Elsa! Right now, I have to coordinate a defense against your realm now that your throne is vacant without a ruler." She said and Anna frowned. "Are we safe?" She asked and Lilith nodded. "Our people would not come to this realm. They will be too busy fighting each other for the throne and the other dark overlords will be looking to them to ensure their domains are not threatened." She said and Peorth frowned. "Which becomes Heaven's problem to babysit this issue. If you would just think of the consequences, Lilith, you could at least reason with your people as their current leader. Morrigan is not your only chance." She said and Lilith shook her head. She looked at Anna. "Perhaps a test of morality...if I am satisfied, I will do so without resistance." She asked and Anna was confused. "Huh? Why are you looking at me?" She asked. "I want to know if Elsa was taken to the evil Madelyne offered and Hild had defeated her....would Elsa be a prisoner of Heaven?" She asked and Peorth frowned. "For her actions, perhaps but she was a victim of her another's manipulation. Morrigan attacked Heaven of her own will. She was manipulated by Medusa after the fact? How is that important?" She asked and Lilith looked at Anna again. "If Elsa had been found guilty to be imprisoned and like my sister, unable to be released. Would you take the throne?" She asked and Anna frowned. "I have to! But it didnt happen that way? Why would you ask me that?" She asked. "Do you want the throne? In your heart, would you rule your people in your sister's stead?" She asked. "What are you getting at?" Peorth asked and Anna frowned. "I...I would have to because my duty is to the people and--"That's not what I asked. I asked is it what you want! Do you want to rule the kingdom without Elsa?" She asked and Anna frowned. Peorth frowned at her silence and Lilith looked down. "You doubt yourself just like I do. I am powerful in my own way...but our people know my sister's power and prowess. They respect her...they need her to remain civil." she said and Peorth glared. "You cant put that on Anna to make your case. You also dont fool me into thinking your situation will warrant your release. You need to return what you stole and take responsibility for your kingdom!" She said and Lilith looked over. "Felicia...would I be a good ruler? Would you feel we'd be better for it?" She asked and Felicia scratched her head. "Meowww....I dont like talking about this stuff" She whined and Anna frowned, looking at the floor. "Im so sorry, Peorth" She said and Peorth sighed. "As am I! We'll return to Heaven soon once I make my report." She stepped out of the room.

An hour later, Elsa had come into the hallway from her room, wanting to eat after she had hidden away for so long. She saw the kitchen was empty and heard no one as she went to a pantry, wondering if she could get her hands on a bread roll. "Mmm, ah!" She gasped to see a shadow. "Elsa, its me!" Anna said and Elsa frowned some. "Im sorry, Anna! You startled me." She said and Anna smiled. "Im glad you came out. I was getting so worried about you" She said. "Im fine. Did they leave? Dont lie" She asked and Anna nodded. "They did. Since you didnt forgive Morrigan, Lilith was not willing to return what she stole. She's going to be locked away in Heaven until they get back what she stole." She said. "That's not my affair. Mmm, but I suppose I could have been a bit more empathetic to Peorth. She was doing her duty and I acted poorly." She said. "You must have wanted to hide your anger very much." She said. "Hnn? What does that mean?" She asked and Anna smiled at her. "I know you are turning into something horrible and you dont want anyone to see. Perhaps over time you will hide your emotions and turn off your behaviors that make you a wonderful sister." She said and Elsa glared. "Nnn...who are you?" She asked, holding up her hands to ready a magical wave of ice as Anna approached. "Forgive me. I didnt want to deceive you. But I had to be sure of what's happening to you, Queen Elsa." She said as her body morphed into Lilith, her bonds on her wrists glowing. "Lilith? How can you use magic? Those bonds are supposed to block your magic?" She said, her eyes narrowing in anger. Her fingertips began to sharpen as Lilith frowned. "You should tell Anna what's happening to you." She said and Elsa gasped, hiding her hands. "You...nnn! Why are you doing this?" She asked as Lilith shook her head. "You have so much hatred in your heart, Queen Elsa...hatred towards me because of my sister. A hatred thats feeding from you to change you into someone that would rule Heaven and creation in terror." She said and Elsa stepped away. "no! I turned away from that! I am not Madelyne's Goblyn Princess!" She said and Lilith nodded. "But you still want that power somewhere deep down." She said and Elsa frowned. "No! I proved I am stronger! I proved I am better without it." She said. "Doubt is a powerful force for any human! Its why demons like us prey on your kind and manipulate your hearts. I however envy you for having Anna! She is something special even without magic." She said and Elsa frowned. "Lilith...mmm...I cant give you what you want. Morrigan attacked Heaven and tried to kill my best friend. If I had gone to the darkness, Id be standing at her heel as her slave just like she did to Urd with her magic." She said. "I know. But may I ask you if you'd forgive yourself for hiding away a monster within?"

Elsa frowned deeply at such a question but it did make her think. "I wont let that monster ever come out. I am better!" She said and Lilith sighed. "You dont believe that just as much as you dont believe my intentions." She said. "Intentions? I think you're intending something deceptive because if you are able to use magic, I think that bonding on your wrists is not real." She said and Lilith smiled. "You are right. It is not of Heaven's design. I pretended to have been captured and let Peorth bring me here. My offer is still genuine and I will return what I stole when my sister is freed." She said. "What is it that you even stole that is that important to Heaven? I cant think of anything that would be that special for Heaven to barter for the release of a terrible demon." She said. "The Almighty is wise beyond my understanding too...everpresent and all-knowing. Mmm, I asked myself how he stood back and watched what happened." She said and Elsa tilted her head. "Watched? Nnn..." Elsa looked down. "Dont be sad. It all ended as it should...and you became strong and fought your darkness. Humans are tested to show what they truly are in their life. I have only known you by reputation but I know you are a good person! You are worth your friendship and respect." She said and Elsa crossed her arms. "You are nothing like Morrigan How can you want her back like this knowing what she could do?" She asked. "She is a necessary evil to keep balance in my realm. Queen Elsa, my time is short and I have come to beg for my sister's release myself. If you need something out of it, what if I can offer you a chance?" She asked. "A chance?" She repeated in confusion as Lilith held out her arms to show Elsa her bonds. "I will give you something to help you beat your darkness. I offer you the item I stole" She said. "What??" Elsa was stunned as Lilith looked. "Touch my bonds and it will appear. Take it and it will give you the means to beat your evil from taking your heart." She said. "This is a trick! It has to be." Elsa said and Lilith frowned. "I have lost everything to these circumstances. You however shall lose everything once you give into your darkness. Is what I have worth having if it means stopping that?" She held up her arms towards her and Elsa frowned. "What could you have that could do that?" She asked and Lilith was silent. Elsa glared and looked at her hands. Was it true that the changes she was enduring could be stopped? She reached, gasping when Lilith was looking into her eyes. "Do this only because you have faith in yourself! Dont doubt your heart." She asked and Elsa was confused. She touched the bonds, whining to feel her hand zapped. "Ow! That hurt...ah" She gasped to see a charm and necklace hovering above Lilith's hands as Lilith just kept looking. "You are a human that has choices! When you make them with your heart, there will be nothing to judge you poorly." She said as Elsa frowned. "What is this?" She asked, gasping to see it disappear. "Where did it go?" She asked and Lilith put her finger to Elsa's chest. "Trust in your heart! Believe only in it....as my heart believes in you." She said. "LILITH" A voice boomed as Felicia saw them together and Elsa gasped. "Felicia, she-she-she----"Awwww! I wanted that bread roll! Lilith, you ate it didnt you?" She said and Lilith smiled. "Im sorry! Can you see if Peorth is ready? We have to get home" She said and Felicia smiled. "You got it, cutie! Oh! Maybe we can take home a souveneir!" She left. "Oh my goodness" Elsa said and Lilith chuckled. "Such a peculiar choice of words given what we discussed." She smiled.

I can only wonder what that necklace will do... Also, is this the first time the Almighty was mentioned? I didn't expect this world to have literal gods, more like realms with designated rulers.

To be honest, I've actually forgotten, but I call him the "Almighty" from the Ah My Goddess series rather than "God" just because Belldandy and her sisters have been main characters so far.

I can understand that, I think it was a good call. Almighty is also less ideologically charged than God.
