Four Thousand Club
Inspired by frozen but given a much darker edge.
In the Kingdom of Aragorn, life was once relatively peaceful, the king's armies fought against the Desert slavers to the East, the Northern mountains bought in ore and gems which made the people rich and prosperous, the fields of the East gave the people of the kingdom bread, wine and meat while the southern seas bought in goods from all across the known world. Times were good... that is, until the previous king died of a mysterious illness.
This princess, unbeknownst to the people of the kingdom possessed a power, the power of ice. When she took the throne, she seemed to be calm and collected, however the palace quickly grew cold, and soon ice began to envelop the corronation hall, and from there the rest of the Castle.
Those in attendance turned on the queen, screaming that she's a monster, she managed to flee to her chambers but as she fled, the cold grew more fierce, and her guest's blood froze in their veins and they dropped dead where they were.
Soon after this, as the newly crowned queen looked out of her bedchamber window before it completely froze over, she was approached by four creatures, who called themselves "her advisers" they made her a deal, as they were the only ones capable of communicating with her and bringing things into the palace like food and the such, their offer was made, they asked for estates in each of the 4 corners of the kingdom, in exchange they would pass on all provincial news and events to the queen, and relay her commands to the people. This was an offer, she couldn't refuse.
And so for years, the queen lived alone in her palace of ice, her advisers bought her food from the outside as well as wine, they relayed news to her and she gave her commands, her commands were always those of mercy and gentleness but firmness fierceness in regard to news like invaders and slavers. As the advisors told her, the people flourished and sang her name in praise and named their daughters after her... but reality soon came crashing through her royal window... in the form of a flaming rock from a catapult.
Rebels attack the palace, screaming "death to the beast!" but their invasion is in vain as her Ice Golems combined with the powers of her advisers and herself make short work of the rebels, however one survives, the leader of this daring attempt on her life... Marco Greenwald, son of Roose Greenwald, lord of the north... her now former fiance.
the overall plot goes as follows, YC talks to MC, she helps him escape and she escapes as well, she discovers that the advisers have been lying to her and the land is in ruins while the people curse her name, they embark on a quest to bring down those who really ruined the land, her so-called "Advisers"
Interested?
UPDATE: this plot is back on the market!

That would have been awkward. I read the first page only after posting
