Solution
The Aunt - The aunt is a gentlewoman, who seems to care a lot for all the three children. She tries to teach them all good values in life and also tries to suffice their curious mind, but due to her lack of authoritative nature, she seems to be failing miserably. She seems to be bad at answering their questions and in the art of story-telling.
