Tomorrow had finally came and you were again standing by the Queen, yawning tiredly. Nigel glance at you and silently bosses you to wake up.

You glare and stick your tongue out at him. He shakes his head irritated and now ignores you. You grin and mentally laugh.

“Your majesty.” The Cobbler, Feldspar, bowed and looks a bit worried, “Ever since you repaved the road. Wear and tear on people's shoes are at an all time low! Not one person has come into the Cobbler Shop all week!”

The King hums, “I see.” He leans toward Queen Arianna and smiles, “Where we can't very well and un-pave the roads now can we, Feldspar?”

Arianna chuckles softly and Frederic speaks again after Feldspar looks down sadly. “However, it occurs to me that the Royal Guard is in need of new boots. Do you think you might be of service, Sir?”

You smile once Feldspar’s face lights up, “M-my my, why of course your majesty.” He happily walks out.

“Do the guards really need new boots?” Rapunzel whispers to her dad and you chuckle.

“No, but the livelihood of our local businesses is worth the extra cost.”

You hum, a little impressed with the King and Rapunzel smiles, “Wow. I have learned so much from shadowing you these last few days.”

“Good.” Frederic is now serious, “Because you must be prepared for any contingency while we're gone.”

Arianna frowns a little and sighs, “Frederic, we're going to be away for two days. We deserve a little break. I think she can manage.” She smiles.

“Oh I know she can. After witnessing the supreme judgment she exercised while defending Attila. There's not a doubt in my mind, but that doesn't mean a father can't worry.”

“Wait, what do you mean by defending Attila?” You questioned.

They glance between each other and Frederic chuckles a bit, “It's best that you don't know.”

Rapunzel smiles, “It's all over and besides, Attila now has his shop up next to Uncle Monty.”

You blink then shake your head, narrowing your eyes, “Attila has a shop? How did I- When did this happen? Actually how did I not notice Attila has a shop?” You dramatically throw out your arms.

“To be honest, (____). You seem to be quite busy all the time, like you're not all here.” Rapunzel says.

You clear your throat and chuckle sheepishly, “Busy? With what?” You now trail off and luckily they don't question you.

After many more royal subjects leave, Arianna went to go get ready for their trip and leaves Rapunzel and Frederic with the last of the people.

You stretch and rub your eyes under your glasses.

“Quirin, my old friend! What brings you from Old Corona Village?” Frederic says happily.

You look up and Quirin glances at you before looking back at the King and bows.

“Your Majesty, Old Corona is facing quite the dilemma.”

“Oh?”

Quirin smiles, “Yes, it would appear that this year's harvest is proven quite bountiful. So much so that I humbly request more land to accommodate such bounty.” He bows again.
