(Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!)

Arianna pulled out a tray and set it on the table near a café at the docks.

Idunn held her head in her hands, barely moving. She was highly embarrassed, but at the same time, she felt completely numb. Her hands were shaking against her knees and she was quite pale.

Arianna looked on sympathetically. She couldn't bear to see her sister in so much emotional pain. She pulled out a plastic teapot and three plastic cups, so they wouldn't smash whilst on the move. She placed a teabag of cranberry flavoured teabag inside each cup and poured the water in. She gently placed a cup of tea in her sister's trembling hands.

Idunn looked down at the cup, inhaling the sweet smell of cranberry.

"I'm glad I bought more yummy chocolate desserts while we were at the shop earlier. I knew it would come in useful later." Arianna cut Idunn a large slice of the chocolate cake and set it in front of her. Idunn said nothing, she didn't move. She didn't react. She was so humiliated and couldn't believe it.

Rapunzel put her head on her aunt's shoulder, stroking her brunette hair gently and planting a small kiss on her bun.

Idunn looked up at her. She tried to smile gratefully as tears still fell down her pale face.

"We all go through the things that haunt us. I still have nightmares of Mother Gothel trapping me in the tower for eighteen years and stabbing Eugene." Rapunzel said.

Rapunzel paused to wipe a tear from her own eye. "But with the help of my-our family, I know that those people will love me for who I am, and not just for the magic that happens to be in my hair. Mother Gothel's manipulative actions are still at the back of my mind, but our family has showed me one thing that I will always remember. Even when your story doesn't have such a happy beginning, it doesn't make you who you are. It is the rest of your story that matters. Who you chose you to be. And…"

Rapunzel took one of Idunn's trembling hands in her own. "We will help you get there. You've given me so much good advice in only three weeks. You're so wise and strong, Aunt Idunn. You got this."

Idunn pulled Rapunzel into a hug. "You're going to be a great queen someday, and a wonderful parent. You too are wise. I only wish that I was there when you returned as the lost princess. You must have been so strong."

Rapunzel looked down, blushing hard. "T-thank you. You're doing amazing, Aunt Idunn. Don't worry about today. We all have setbacks."

Idunn smiled. Rapunzel was most certainly wise beyond her years.

Karl felt terrible. He stood a few metres back from Idunn's table. All he wanted since meeting Idunn was to help her get through her terrible trauma.

Yet her knew he had really messed up. Bringing a woman to a dock who had recently been through boat trauma? Could he could have been any more stupid?

Karl ran his hands through his brown hair, sighing deeply. He just knew he couldn't just stand there and watch Idunn in that terrible state. He had to do something. Karl looked around the docks.

"Where was Idunn from again?"Karl muttered to himself. "Australia…? No. Austria...? Nope. Wait… wasn't it Arendelle? Yes, Arendelle!"

Without a second thought, Karl raced off to Wandering Odie's Trading Post and Sauna. It was a small shop in the centre of the village. It was very popular, especially the sauna.

Karl pushed the shop door open, the bell ringing just above him.

"Yoohoo! Souvenir Sell-out! We have stuff from all over the neighbouring kingdoms! But Corona is the best, ja?" The man behind the counter said cheerfully .

"Ja..." Karl slowly replied. He looked up at the man behind the counter. His cheerful smile seemed to be contagious, perfectly placed between his ginger beard and moustache. His messy strawberry blonde hair stuck perfectly out of his green hat which matched his green clothing.

"Would you happen to have anything from Arendelle? It's a gift." Karl asked.

"Arendelle, Ja? I love Arendelle! My cousin Oaken has a trading post there too! A letter arrived from there this morning, and a royal one too! Though there is a problem, Ja?"

"What would that be?" Karl asked, intrigued.

"Well, it's from the Royal Family of Arendelle, addressed to... 'Queen Idunn' Our postmen have no addresses with her name in it and she's not in our recent census. A real problem, Ja?"

"No! I know an Idunn! She doesn't live in Corona nowadays, that's why she's not on the census and eh…it's complicated. I'll deliver the letter for you, and I'll take two of those crocus hairclips."

"Good choice, Ja? That'll be ten."

"Thank you!" Karl waved, clutching the letter and his bag with the hairclips. If this wasn't a great apology gift, he didn't know what was.

"Yoohoo!" Odie waved as Karl left the store, the bell echoing behind him.

Karl clutched the envelope tightly. The address was written in neat cursive on the front of the envelope and the stamp on the top right-hand side of the envelope featured a beautiful young woman. The young woman had a blonde braid hanging down her left shoulder, and she was dressed in a beautiful light blue dress.

"Wow. And I thought Queen Idunn was beautiful." Karl thought. Then he stopped himself. "Stop it Karl, you're trying to help Queen Idunn, not make her children your girlfriend."

He sighed, turning in Idunn's direction. Arianna was attempting to feed her some cake, but Idunn refused, a mournful look still on her delicate face.

Karl sighed deeply, bringing the envelope to his face, then looking at Idunn again. Yes, this would work. He would finally get back on her good side, and believe me, he didn't want to get on her angry side.

Inhaling deeply, Karl slipped the envelope into the same bag as the crocus hairclips and began to make the walk to Idunn sitting in her wheelchair at the table.

Karl moved his hand to place it on Idunn's shoulder, but immediately pulled it back, remember the very recent past event. Instead, he simply cleared his throat.

Idunn turned around. She opened her mouth to speak, but Arianna stepped in front of her baby sister. Her face creased into a frown and her eyebrows lowered in anger.

"You watch yourself, young man. I'm not having my sister's heart condition get any worse from any traumatic stress! Is that understood? I assure you that I will not hesitate against any action in order to protect my vulnerable sis-" Arianna began sternly.

"Ari! Stop this!" Idunn interrupted. "Yes Karl? Is there something you need?"

"Well…er…" Karl stammered, still highly intimidated by Arianna. He knew the queen was protective of her sister, but he didn't expect her to change in a heartbeat, pun intended.

Karl swallowed. "This arrived for you, and there's another surprise in there." Karl handed the bag to Idunn.

Curiously, Idunn pulled out the brown envelope and quickly opened it. Multiple pages were tucked into the letter, so she pulled out the first one she saw and unrolled the parchment.

Dearest Mama,

Thank the gods you're alive! Our prayers have been answered!

We are so relieved to hear from you and we have so much to tell you. We hope you will be proud of us.

Idunn's heart stood still….Could it be? She turned the envelope over to look at where the sender was from.

Her Majesty Queen Elsa and Her Royal Highness Princess Anna

Arendelle Castle,

Arendelle,

Norway

Idunn's hand flew to her mouth and she began to shake, this time not with fear, but with relief.

Tears of relief began to fall down her cheeks and she immediately pulled out the other letters in the parchment. She clutched them tightly and held them protectively against her chest. Her golden child Elsa, her small child Anna.

They knew. They finally knew that Mama would eventually come home.
