The Dark Mirror (Old Version)

Chapter Nine: Winlar's Vault

"Let's hope whatever you guys need is inside here," Turmin said,

"I really hope it is because if it isn't, 'then this journey would have been for nothing," Benjamin exclaimed,

"Wait, what exactly are you guys looking for?" Turmin asked 'looking up at Benjamin 'who was standing beside him,

Benjamin looked at him, "Well, we've been searching all over for The Dark Mirror, and we're hoping there's a clue to its whereabouts here." He answered,

"The Dark Mirror? Why on Hilja are you looking for that old thing?" Turmin asked,

"Well, to put it shortly 'we need to find it to save The Universe." He explained to Turmin,

"Hm, well, I'd like to live in this universe until my natural death 'so I'll help you look for this clue!" Turmin said, 'skipping into the vault 'the others entered as well.

Benjamin walked up to a chest and opened it, "What is this stuff?" He asked 'holding up a clay figurine of what looked to be a man dancing,

Niko looked over at him and replied, "Well, King Prime did say that his father just put what he thought was worth keeping in here 'so I'm not surprised we're coming across some strange stuff." Niko replied,

Benjamin kept digging, "This stuff is so bizarre! How could anyone actually think this is worth anything?!" He exclaimed 'picking up a carved wooden disk,

Reila looked over at him, "I suggest we stop questioning every bizarre thing we find and focus more on locating this clue."

"Reila's right! Though what would this clue even look like?" Turmin asked 'picking up a wool Rabbit and throwing it behind him,

"I guess it would be written on something 'most likely a scroll since that's what the Peleki use most of the time to write on," Benjamin responded,

Reila busted a crate open 'she reached inside and pulled out a rough but round rock, "Why does this dude have a rock in his collection?" She wondered 'putting it aside,

Turmin opened a chest, and nothing but fake gold filled it to the brim, "Huh?!" Turmin thought 'closing the trunk,

Niko opened a chest filled with scrolls, "Uh, guys? I think I found it, 'just one problem 'there are tons of them here!" Niko shouted 'looking back into the trunk,

The others walked over, "There are so many! How are we going to get through them all?" Turmin asked 'grabbing a scroll,

"Well, there's only one way, and that's by reading them all." Benjamin replied 'picking one up 'it was rolled up using a silk string,

He opened it, and it read:

"It seems the comet that formed The StarGlade Crater came from the constellation of Alamore around twenty-four thousand years ago. The strange thing is that the angle that the comet hit would mean it was traveling at an insanely fast rate 'faster than it should have been capable of traveling. And as if it couldn't get any weirder, I discovered a secondary impact crater not far from the main one 'the thing is 'however, 'the pieces that broke off of the comet during its descent onto the planet had already burned up in the atmosphere. Now, this means that something else crashed with it 'unfortunately, I know not what it could be."

King Winlar Prime.

"Well, this wasn't any help." He said 'rolling the scroll back up,

Turmin opened his 'it was rolled up using a silk string, 'it read:

"I've always been fascinated by the mysterious case of Rin Won Gon, 'the island that reportedly moves throughout the oceans and is pretty much impossible to find. It's infamous among The Woo Republic, and it even caught the attention of their leader Captain Henry Za and his best friend 'Captain Ivan Polka. They set out in search of the elusive island, and nobody ever saw them again. It truly is a fascinating story 'though I wonder if it is true."
