The members of the team now went towards a new realm. Their new destination was the Cave Realm. To be specific, it's darkest point, it's north-eastern corner. Why did the went for? Naturally...for tar. If somebody thinks about saving nature, most of the time tar isn't what comes to mind first, but they trusted in Margaret's knowledge. But before they left for the caves, Dion read the letter. The crystal became blue this time.

On the road, which comes next,
The fates, the one respects,
Which matters now in the fight,
Is to never lose your light.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This was different from the others. It didn't point to a certain spot. Rather, it felt like it was a prophecy.
-"How will we find it, if we don't even know where to search?" -Aisha asked.
-"I don't know yet, but let's not think about this now." -Dion said. -"There are more hurrying matters at hand right now."
-"Ya always say that, then we somehow find whatever we need coincidentally." -Kira believed.
-"These can't be purely coincidental." -Rocky interrupted. -"Something must connect them."
The others looked at him silently.
-"What?" -He asked.
-"What happened to you?" -Aisha looked amazed.
-"Why?"
-"Well, now ya ain't complainin' about everythin' and you say pretty helpful stuff." -Kira said.
-"Maybe it affected me positively that I came with you." -Rocky said joyfully. -"Except when we get in life threathening situations."
-"That's a good thing." -Dion looked happy. -"What did you say about something connecting these things?"
-"Well every thing has something to do with the elementals. The ingredients, your mom's letters and those strange boxes you talked about." -Rocky explained. -"Maybe because restoring nature takes ingredients from elementals and perhaps your mom and whoever left those boxes there, they are connected to the elementals. It's possible that they left them there, so you will meet them anyway."
The others looked at Rocky in awe.
-"Where was your knowledge when we needed it?" -Kira asked.
-"I don't know, this is just a thought."
-"It's a possibility." -Dion agreed. -"Maybe if I collect all the letters, then I'll finally find the answers."
-"So, are we ready to leave?" -Aisha asked.
-"Let's go."
The team looked for a person who can guide them to the desert entrance of the Cave Realm and they received two camels along with them for the journey. Of course it wasn't very cheap, but they needed them.
Their guide lead them in a western direction. As they went further away from the river, the landscape became dryer and more desolate. On the way they saw a couple of lions, leopards and even some hyenas.
-"Look, there's your family." -Rocky said to Kira.
-"I see ya think you're funny." -She replied.
A few vultures also flew above them, which reminded Aisha about last time, when they experienced a sandstorm. She hoped she doesn't have to go through that again.
