The sun didn't even rise but the team was already awake and watched how Dion, like last time, touched the crystal with his horn and the crystal changed to an orange color. Then he touched the paper with the crystal and once again words started to form on it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Son,
I hope you didn't have to take this letter by force. Though you were able to face the titan, whether with force or by diplomatic ways, there will be more difficult obstacles you have to face and you have to improve. But I know you'll be able to defeat our enemies and free us from the burden of their power.

As always, there was a small text under it, which lead to the whereabouts of the next letter. Dion set the small mirror next to the text and they were able to read the riddle:
"In desert the heat is unbearable,
But on the north it's not so terrible,
Oasis' water shines like a sword,
Over the mirror you'll get your reward."
-"It looks like we have to go toa desert." -Came to the conclusion Aisha.
-"The only oasis on the north is the Shiba Oasis." -Informed Kira the others. -"Though it's the closest point of the Desert Realm to us, it's still quite faraway."
-"Oh, goodies. We can walk miles in a desert." -Said Rocky, while being grumpy.
-"What is it Rocky, are you always angry about something?" -Aisha asked from the capybara.
-"No! I'm only angry if something annoys me."
-"So always." -Kira said while laughing.
-"Enough. We don't have to go to the desert yet. It's more important to find out about this Parallax." -Dion spoke up. -"I know a place, where we might be able to find answers."
-"Oh, right." -Remembered Kira.
-"Yes, that is really the most important right now." -Aisha agreed.
Rocky didn't say anything, but he probably started to regret that he joined them.
-"So, I say, let's prepare for another journey." -Said Aisha to the others.
-"Can't we rest before we go?" -Asked Kira with faked sadness.
-"Kira, this is important. Or do you want to be like Rocky?"
-Aisha said. She started to get used to the fact that there's always something going on, though it scared her that their world could be in danger.
-"Fine, then we'll go." -Said Kira while pouting. -"Lead us to this place, feathered pony."
Dion didn't say anything about it and walked out to wait for the others. Rocky quickly ran after him. It seems like he started to really like Dion. The girls put the equipments on, they put food that can be conserved for a long time and water in their bags, then they headed out. Kira equipped Aya, while Aisha went to her own horse, whom they bought from the reward. It was a medium sized, black mare. After her white spots on her head and chest, Aisha named her Opal. When they were ready they trotted away with Dion's lead.

The team went through mostly woody parts, which were very similar to each other, but it seemed like Dion knew the way. After 1 hour they arrived at a large tree, that somehow looked like a building. To the tree connected 4 paths from every direction.
-"We're here." -Claimed Dion.
-"This is, if I remember correctly...a library?" -Aisha asked. -"They write about it in my book."
