[When Steve stumbles across her, Anna is clinging to a railing on one of the ship's lower staircases, having a panic attack.
It's not that she can't swim; she can, and pretty well, since she grew up on the seaside. But this whole sinking ship is really freaking her out, because it happens to be the exact way her parents died not three years ago. She can't bring herself to let go of the railing, despite the waters that are rising at an alarming rate. She looks like a drowned rat, her ballgown soaked and ruined and her hair completely undone from its elaborate updo, and the princess looks even paler than usual when she sees someone coming down the stairs.]
