Hey Everyone, so for this chapter I decided to write a summary of what Elena saw in the truth vision from her scepter, because writing a story is too much work. I might be able to do a post story about Esteban's past, but for now this is what I got. now this is a WORK IN PROGRESS so if you don't understand the story, if there are reading flaws, or the paragraph structure is confusing please let me know. Other than that, Enjoy!

Elena pulled out her scepter and revealed Esteban's story to see if Esteban was telling the truth.

In the first vision Elena saw Esteban's parent's funeral, she saw him and herself as kids, she rememberd what a sad day that was and how it was hard for Esteban, she went to him and comforted him after the funeral

In the second vision, she saw Esteban being secluded from royal activities that were only for the king and queen and the princess, Elena has always looked up to her father and wanted to rule Avalor just like he did. Esteban wanted to be a part of it.

Elena never realized he was being left like he wasn't a part of the family.

In the third vision, Elena saw Esteban being teased at school during his childhood, Elena didn't even know he being made fun of. she also saw Esteban and Victor as kids getting into trouble and were often busted by Fransisco and Luisa, and she saw that Victor would always call him El Secundo.

In the fourth vision, she saw the times that she and Esteban have spent together as kids, she had always told him that she cares for him and always be there for her cousin, because he was family and Esteban believed it to be true.

Elena couldn't help but smile as she reflected on the times they were bonding with each other, she wondered if Esteban was telling the truth, would he still have that same compassion for his family.

In the fifth vision, Elena saw Esteban when he hit his young adult years and still being overlooked and neglected he decided he had enough, Victor told Esteban about Shuriki and what she was going to do for them, she promised them power in Avalor, Victor accepted the offer, Esteban agreed too on one condition that she would promise them that no one in his family would be hurt, Shuriki agreed, little did Esteban know he got more than what he bargained for.

Elena watched painfully as she relived the moment her parents were killed by Shuriki but this time she saw it from Esteban's perspective.

After the attack, Esteban confronted Shuriki telling her that this wasn't a part of the agreement. Shuriki told him that she would need to cut some loose ends Esteban realized what he has done and he went to the potrait where Alacazzar had put Fransisco, Luisa and Isabel to save them. he sobbingly apologized to then as he fell down on his knees.

Elena was heartbroken for Esteban, she couldn't believe what she just saw and all because even no one paid attention to him even after his parents had died.

In the final vision, she saw Esteban growing up living most of his life working for Shuriki as chancellor of Avalor, while he was still loyal to her and serving his kingdom, he was sad, depressed, and hurt. He had nightmares of the same day Shuriki killed Elena's parents. Esteban couldn't hide or run away from the pain and guilt that would haunt him for the rest of his life.

When the visions from her scepter finished, Elena had to sit down and meditate, she couldn't fell nothing but sorrow for Esteban, she could imagine the shame, hurt and guilt he faced most of his life, along with the isolation during his childhood, and all this just because he was overlooked and unappreciated by his own family

Elena was shocked Esteban was telling the truth the whole time but despite feeling horrible for not believing him, she still believes that it doesn't excuse him from leading Shuriki to her parents. She still cant forgive him yet. She decided not to exile him, but she is willing to talk to him and work it out like family.
