They sit in silence as Brett reads to two books Troy brought out with him. While Brett simply sits, Troy fidgets, feeling the awkwardness and tension in the area. Taking a deep breath, Brett turns to look at Troy. "Okay... I... let me gather my thoughts."
After a few more moments, Brett gets up and grabs a piece of paper and a pen. After quickly something down, he hands the paper over to Troy.
Wilbur and Dream where most likely in a secret relationship before Dream died. Before Wilbur's death is unknown. After Wilbur died, he turned into a ghost. When he was in prison, Dream asked someone dear to him to kill him - most likely candidate: Wilbur.
Why was Dream sent to prison??? (Hints to doing something extremely bad)
What pushed him to death???
Did Dream come back as a ghost???
Skim reading the paper, Troy looked up at Brett. "I agree with you on this. But, where are we supposed to look now?"
"I don't know yet." Brett responded. After a second, he picked up Do not read. "Did you read this yet?"
After seeing Troy shake his head, Brett flipped the book open. "Get the other copy - may there will be something in here."

Together, the two boys read through Do not read. As they neared the end of the book, neither had found anything important to there search. Flipping to the last page of the book, Troy's eyes widened.
There are rumors going around that --- ---- ------ ----- ----'- ------ --------- was because he owned a revival book. I don't quite know why they wanted to keep it, as all the ghosts I've talked to say they don't want to come back...
As there was no room in the four book, I must write this in here. Dream has given his revival book to Wilbur, and has told him to hide it in 'their place'. I do not know where this place is located, but if I found out I will go and retrieve the book.
"Go to the last page, Brett."
Glancing up for a second, Brett flipped to the last page are read it. Just like Troy, Brett eye's widened and he gasped. "Troy! We know where the revival book is!"
"What?"
"Their place! That has to be the hidden house that we found!"

Rushing around, the two quickly packed for a two-day journey. Looking outside, they saw that the majority of the day had already passed. Putting down there things, they decided to stay at the hotel for the night, and go early tomorrow morning. The next day was a blind mess - waking up early, they got ready for the walked ahead and rushed out to the port. After the boat ride, they speed-walked through the biomes before arriving at the snow biome. I don't know if it was the adrenaline, or excitement, but they managed to make it to the house, just as night was falling. Now exhausted, they both took a bedroom in the ghost house.

The next day, both where stumped.
"Where do we look? We've already explored the entire house." Troy asked Brett, as they stood in the foyer, near the tunnel entrance. Glancing around, Brett saw Do not read clutched in Troy's hand.
Pointing out the book Brett replied, "Look through the book again, for any more bold text."
With a start, Troy opened the book and sat down. After a few minutes, Troy stood back up and showed a paragraph to Brett. The paragraph and been hastily written in, and was tucked away in a small corner of one of the pages.
Greet the polar bear and say 'Hi',
Then just move on bye.
If you go to the side then you will find,
A door to down where you mine.
Hidden below, a book of ghosts,
What will you do? Where will you go?
"There's just one problem, " Troy went on, "I don't remember seeing any rooms with polar bears in them."
Think for a moment Brett rushed over to one of the doors on the bottom floor. "There's polar bears in here! I found them when we where looking last time!"
Running after Brett, Troy reached him just as Brett opened the door. At first, he saw no polar bears before looking over to the right wall. There, instead of a wall, was glass. Looking through it at least 5 polar bears were present, in a remade snow-biome. To the side he also noted an iron door. Feeling a bit of nostalgia at the lever beside it, he walked forward. Pulling it down, both the boys walked through to be meet with all 5 polar bears simply staring at them.
Pausing for a second, Troy said, "Hi," before walking over to the opposite wall, looking for any hidden doors. Just as he was nearing the end wall, Troy's fingers ran over a small crevices.
"I think I found the door!" He called over to Brett who proceeded to walk over, pulling out a pickaxe as he went. "Why do you have that...?"
"To get through the door." He said before swinging it, breaking the block. Doing the same with the other block, a hidden tunnel lay before them.
Glancing at each other, they went in - one after the other. Walking down, the tunnel slowly descended, before coming to a set of stairs.
"This is really feeling like the tunnel in Sam's house, isn't it?" Troy whispered as the continued down.
"Sorta, yeah."
A light soon appeared ahead, showing that they were nearing the end. When they finally got to the end, the found a simply stone room, with a chest layout in the center. Before Troy could do anything, Brett was at the chest and opening it up. From it, he pulled a book. From where Troy was standing, he could just read the title, Revival Book.
"Well, at least we know that we got the right book, huh?" Stated Troy.
Opening the first page, Brett saw that the majority of the pages had been ripped out. However, the disappointment was held back slightly by the few pages that still remained.
If you do not wish to revive someone, but would like for them to be a ghost - or talk to said ghost, there is a spell to do so.
Repeat the words '㇜㇎㇏㇁㇖㇒㇕㇏㇂㇊㇑㇒㇟㇠㇏㇌㇈㇞㇕㇍㇔㇓㇝㇋㇏㇂㇁㇅㇘㇢㇔㇜㇑㇉㇕㇟㇠㇏㇄㇂㇔㇕㇍㇎㇠㇒㇈㇙㇊㇁'. Whilst standing by the grave of the person/persons.
By now, Troy was reading over Brett's shoulder. "Should we do that?"
Looking up at Troy, Brett replied with a grin, "Absolutely."

Two men stood to the back of the room, watching the boys read the book. "Do you think they'll use the spell?"
"Yes - I think we should get read to tell our story."
"Okay."
Getting up, walked up the stairs and left the two boys to decided what they wanted to do.
