Over hundreds of years ago, a drop of sunlight fell to Earth and bloomed into a magical golden flower, which was found by an old woman named Mother Gothel. Having discovered the flower's power to heal the sick and injured, Gothel uses it to restore her youth and beauty, and keeps the flower hidden from the rest of the world. As the centuries pass, a kingdom of Corona grows nearby, ruled by beloved king and queen, who are expecting a child. Near the end of her pregnancy, the queen falls gravely ill, and the king sends his people to search for the legendary golden flower. After Gothel fails to hide the flower this time, it is found and brought to the palace to heal the queen, who soon gives birth to a daughter named Rapunzel; to celebrate her birth, the king and queen launch a floating lantern into the sky. That same night, an aging Gothel sneaks into the palace and discovers that Rapunzel's hair has inherited the flower's healing power, but when she cuts off a strand, it turns brown and loses its magic. Gothel instead kidnaps Rapunzel and locks her away in a hidden tower deep in the forest, where she raises her as her own, while using the power of Rapunzel's hair. Determined to keep her hidden, Gothel forbids Rapunzel to leave the tower and lies to her that the outside world is filled with dangerous things and cruel, selfish people who could steal her hair and use it for their own good. Every year afterward, as per tradition, on Rapunzel's birthday, the kingdom releases thousands of floating lanterns in hopes that one day, the lost princess will return home.

And that is how you come in, Portal Master, to rescue the lost princess, Rapunzel, and bring her home! Your journey…. Begins.
