    Summary

    Thank you RimaPichi for this lovely commission!

    After Rapunzel turns down his request for help, Varian returns to Old Corona only to find his father petrified in amber. Devastated, he vows to find a solution himself at the risk of his own health, having already taken ill from the raging blizzard outside. He overworks himself into collapse and is subsequently found by Rapunzel, Eugene and Cassandra, who decide to make things right by looking after him, even with tensions running high between them.

    In other words: AU where Varian doesn't go 0-100 and become a villain, and the force of logic is (somewhat) observed because there's no way he ran around in a blizzard by himself and didn't come back at least a little sniffly.

    Summary

    After the defeat of Zhan Tiri, Varian, Rapunzel, and Eugene are ready for a nice, quiet retirement. However, trouble rears it's ugly head as a visiting King from a neighboring land stirs up trouble for the resident alchemist. When Varian is stolen away from Corona in the middle of the night, he finds that the man has a connection not only to his past, but to his mother, and most importantly to Varian himself. Alone in hostile territory, with enemies closing in all around him, Varian is left with two choices.

    Escape or death.
