This story is a sequel to The Frog that Would Become Emperor; Cold Night in The Crystal Empire, part 1

Being stuck in the Crystal Empire's Library is not ideal for a vacation, epically while there is a Wndigo attack happening just outside. While getting to know the others he was trapped with, the human learns the tale of how Princes Shining Armor and Princess Cadence first met and fell in love. That reminds the Storyteller of a tale back home that should help raise the spirits of both Crystal Ponies and Royals alike.
