The Sole Protector

Chapter 12

As I sat by the hospital bed, I began wondering what places the wizard could be hiding. He could be hiding in the dark forest, which wasn't very likely. The enslaved animals lived there, they would have told us if he were hiding there.

"Hey." William whspered quietly. "How is he doing?"

"He hasn't moved since I got here."

"Oh, have you thought about where the wizard might be?"

"Well, I thought about the dark forest, but that isn't very likely."

"What about the lost tower?"

"It was lost, no one knows where it is now. The story is, that the last wizard that used it, cast a curse on it and it disapeared forever."

"But, if there is a story, it will be written down somewhere."

"The royal record keeper would probably know. We can always check in the library."

"Let's go now and see if we can find it."

William and I ran ot of the room and the hospital. We jumped on our horses and cantered back to the palace.

Once again, a trumpet fanfare greeted my arrival.

"Adeline? What are you doing here?" The king asked.

"Your majesty," I said as I bowed low. "William and I might have figured out where the wizard is hiding. We believe he is hiding in the lost tower."

"Adeline! Don't tell me that you still believe that tale. It is just a myth!"

"We were hoping to check the royal library, just to make sure."

"Alright, go down this hall, take the last door on the right, go all the way down the stairs.There you will find the library. If the story is true, it will be there."

A couple of hours later:

William and I collapsed on the chairs in relief.

"William! We did it! The legend was writen down!"

"Why don't you start reading it. This was your idea."

"Alright."

So, I finally got this chapter up!! I would have had it up a while ago, but wattpad continually deleted what I wrote. I got this far, and decided to upload it. The next chapter should be up relatively soon.
