A Tale From The Past

~Chapter V~

-A/N-

Hey everyone!! Just wanting to wish everyone a happy new year!! :)

Also I might redo the start of this chapter in the future as I'm not that sure about it but everything will still be the same. 

-----------------------------------------

❄️Iduna's Point Of View❄️

Agnarr and I were walking back towards Arendelle whilst talking along the way until we arrived back at my house.

"Well here it is, home sweet home" I smile turning towards him

"It was wonderful meeting you Iduna, I hope to do it again sometime" Agnarr smiles

"Anything to get out of your duties" I giggle making him chuckle and respond,

"Though that is true, I would love to give you a proper tour of Arendelle as you are new here and I so happen to know a sublime sweet shop that I'm sure you would love"

"That sounds wonderful"

"Well, until then. Goodnight Iduna" Agnarr smiles a toothy grin as he bows and walks away towards the castle his dark green coat flowing in the wind

I turn around and open the front door and walk inside the warmth of the fireplace

"We see you are back, you hungry sweetheart?" Helga asks as she looks up from her reading chair

"Just a little bit"

"I'll heat up some chicken soup for you, by the way who was that you were speaking to outside?" Getting up from her spot, Helga makes her way to the kitchen

"Oh that, uhm just a friend I made. They happened to be on the hill I was on"

'I can't tell her it was the King she'll probably throw me out'

"That's wonderful dear! Already making friends" she smiles as she passes me the bowl of soup and I give a quiet "thank you"

"Tell me about them, are they your age?" She asks as she sits across from me

"He's a year older than I am" I say sipping on the very yummy soup

"Ah so this person is a he, does this 'he' have a name?" She grins

"Umm I'd rather not say" I nervously laugh gulping down the last bit of soup before standing up and walking over to the sink and washing it up before putting it back in its rightful place. While Helga's eyes are still on me

"I'll have you tell me more tomorrow about this mystery boy, now go wash up. I'll see you in the morning" Helga smiles as she comes over and gives me a hug and kiss on the forehead goodnight

"Goodnight" I smile as I walk into the bathroom and wash up and get into my night clothes.

Walking into my room I undid my hair that was in a bun and letting loose all my curls.

Climbing into bed, I turn over and blow out the candle before looking up at the wooden ceiling 

'I can't believe I became friends with the King. Especially after I hoped I wouldn't run into him and have to continue to lie to more people about where I came from. But Agnarr seems different... almost like I could trust him as he seemed kind and considerate. Maybe one day I'll tell him, but till I feel like the time is right I'll just burden myself with the secret'

❄️Next Day❄️

Opening up my eyes, I get out of the comfortable bed and prepare myself for the day ahead. Walking down the staircase I find Helga and Gustav eating breakfast with an extra plate placed on the table. 

"Good morning darling, did you sleep well?" Gustav asks looking up from the paper he was reading

"Yes I did, thank you" 

Sitting down next to Helga, I begin eating the food in front of me. 

"So Iduna, I was wondering if you would like to join me to the castle today. Queen Rita has requested my presence in making her some new dresses" Helga says looking towards me

"Really? Yeah I'd love to" I say excitedly 

"Perfect, we'll leave when you finish eating breakfast"

Once I finished eating the rest of my breakfast, Helga and I head off towards the castle by walking through the town square to the long bridge that connects the castle to the town.

"It's beautiful" I say looking up and around at all the beautiful designs that decorate the castle walls

"Wait until you see the inside" Helga says chuckling

We both walk up to the large wooden double doors where two guards stood in Arendellian uniforms.

"State your name and business" One of the guards speak up

"My name's Helga along with my daughter Iduna here with an invite from the Queen"

"Of course, we were expecting you. Her Majesty will be with you soon" The other guard says as they both push open the doors revealing a beautiful hall with wooden floors and red wallpaper. As I was taking in the whole experience I hear a woman's voice speak up,

"Helga, my dearest friend. I'm so glad you could come" 

Looking up I spot a woman with long strawberry blonde hair and green eyes wearing an elegant floor length purple dress walking down the staircase towards us.

"It's lovely to see you again" Helga says smiling 

"And who's this gorgeous young lady you have with you" Queen Rita asks looking towards me with a gentle smile

"This is Iduna, Gustav and I adopted her a few weeks ago" 

"It's a pleasure to meet you, your Majesty" I say doing a small curtsy 

"The pleasures all mine, and no need for any formalities. Please just call me Rita" She smiles

  'She's so kind, now I know where Agnarr gets it from'

"Come dear, I have something to show you that I'm certain you'll love" Rita says as she begins walking away with Helga and I following closely behind 

'I wonder where we are going?'
