She picked one up, it looked like he had opened it, did he open this letter?..

She opened it and noticed that some of the words had been scribbled out with hashtags.

"Dear #######,

It's ### #######, I am responding to #### ######. Yes ###### wants to have a ###. Maybe you should"

The rest was ripped off...

Why would he do that? And who was this from, and to?

She checked the length of the words from the second sentence "yes ###### wants to have a ###." Someone, or something, wanted to have..? What was it? She counted the hashtags in the last word, 3 letters, but what was it talking about? If Grover must have stolen this and not wanted her to see it, maybe it was about him?

She saw the person it was from, which was 2 words. Wait, if it was about Grover, and they were "responding to" something, whoever they sent it for had sent something about him. Maybe it was her? She counted the hashtags in "dear #######," it was the exact count of her name Auphora! She wrote "Auphora" above it

"Dear Auphora,

It's ### #######, I am responding to #### ######. Yes ###### wants to have a ###. Maybe you should"

If it was to her, the only person she was talking about Grover to was the protector. She counted, yes! It was right! She wrote the protector.

"Dear Auphora,

It's the protector, I am responding to your letter. Yes Grover wants to have a ###. Maybe you should"

Maybe it was war, considering her letter she had sent. But she didn't know what the advice was...

Auphora pulled out some paper and wrote

"Dear protector,

It's Auphora, the scroll you sent got captured by Grover and halfway torn, he had also scribbled the words out. I did however manage to find out the words though.

Love,
Auphora"

She rolled it up and stuck the torn letter into the ribbon before securing it in, and, stamping it.

A dove came to deliver it.

The next morning

Auphora awoke to the gem sirens going off. She looked outside and there was a war, why in the world did they decide to fight right outside her door!?

She walked downstairs.

Auphora opened the door, silence.

"What in the world is all of THIS!?"

Grover turned towards her...

"Well.. we've been waiting for you..."

"Right outside my door??"

"Right outside where my PEOPLE are trapped!"

"Hmmm, ok.. GROVER. What about my PHEONIX?"

"How do you know my name..?"

"Let's say.. marab isn't your precious little servant.."

"You brainwashed him didn't you!?"

"No no! I'm a good entity, I would never, unlike you evils.."
