Chapter 25

Iduna POV

We arrived to the castle, there were people stationing there greeting us as we got off our reindeers. One of them is Lord Husan, he smiled at me and then held out his hand out to get me down the reindeer, gotten chills as i touch his sturdy hand.

"Welcome back Iduna." Lord Husan bowed again.

It was still dark, sun won't be coming up soon and I was brought to a empty room to rest.

The ladies around me seems to expect something from me, after clarifying with them, I realized I am suppose to change.

"Could I wear that." I pointed to the northuldra clothes I wore with when i travelled here.

They nodded in return and quickly left the room, it was awkward, I didn't know what to do and I wasn't in the state to do things.

I quickly slam myself on the bed, it is sure soft as a feather, but there isn't scent I always sleep with. Then the sentence sparks my mind.

You will be a great queen.

He thinks that way? I felt my cheeks warming up. No one compliment me that way, it doesn't sound sarcastic but sincere.

I shook my head and rid the thoughts, why am I thinking this way? I am getting more of these thoughts, this isn't me, am I getting more sensitive?

I rumble through the sheets and kept thinking about Agnarr, this is getting frustrating, I am begging for sleep but I couldn't due to him? I then blamed him for all sort of reasons, but never him for bringing me here.

My mother told me some strong force before, she says is something deeper than friends, is this our relationship now?

I couldn't sleep after realizing turning around wouldn't help. I decided to step out of the room with the sheets covering me and went out and explore the hallway.

I then found the picture of the emerald, a women was wearing it and sitting down with a man beside her standing.

I tried looking at the man but the nightlight didn't shine his way, so his face isn't visible to my eye. I then saw a familiar face, a kid was sitting on the women lap, it must be Agnarr.

"This portrait is my last family picture before my mother passed on." I heard agnarr standing beside me.

I gave a bow to show a sign of respect, she must have been a great mother and Queen.

"The emerald. That's what we need to find?" I changed the topic to not remind his past.

"I have asked for its presence, it would be sent up by tomorrow morning as all the staff servants aren't available."

We then walked to the next picture, and then I saw me.

She looks so admirable, even though we have never met before, I could tell that she did great things, wait am I complimenting myself?

"I look so matured, so grown up. I didn't know I would wear that." I looked at myself, I am not getting any near there.

I could hear Agnarr agreeing and then look over to adult Agnarr, he looks different from what he is now.

The adult of him was much taller, has broader shoulders and even grew a moustache, which I could never imagine on agnarr.

"Woah you really grew Agnarr." I hit his shoulder.

"Thanks." I could see him flinching and getting a little away from me.

"Actually this is the family portrait section, maybe we could...." Agnarr seems uncomfortable, I then felt tense and saw the picture of us holding each other.
