"For the Rose of Earth, it shows that it's at Briar's castle!"

After just what happened with Bruni and the Nokk earlier, they're finally at the fourth place with two roses left in their agenda. Elise's was tired both physically and mentally. She grew more and more nervous as the time passes, scared that it would be too late to save her mother. 

"I can't wait to see your castle, Briar. I'm a big fan of your story!" Annie squealed a bit at the thought of getting inside Sleeping Beauty's castle. 

"I dunno. Enchanted sleep for a hundred years sounds... exhausting" Ashlynn commented, slightly chilled from the harsh winter. "Sleeping Beauty is about more than sleep! There's magic and romance-"

"-and a wicked awesome villain if I do say so myself." Farrah butted in as she cut of Briar before pointing towards the palace, "Look! There's the castle. Let's get that rose and get back on the... road."

The others stared agape as the castle was under a big pile of snow plus the wind blowing harshly. The castle was in between huge rocks that were covered with snow and vines of roses taking up the walls completely.

"I guess the gardeners took off at the first frost."

"The rose might be harder to find in comparison to the other three. I mean, just by looking at you place, Briar, it might take a long time for us to find it..." 

The longer Elise stared, the nervous she became. Hex, even she began to feel the cold of the wind blowing against them, and that's saying something. Dexter noticed his girl shivering and decided to put an arm around her, which she accepted.

"Well, let's go now then."

"According to the riddle, it said that the rose is hidden high above. Since it also happens to be at Briar's, it may be somewhere correlated to Sleeping Beauty's story. Briar, does your mom's bedroom happened to be at the highest part of your castle? You know, where she slept for a hundred years?" Elise turned towards the said girl who looked a bit down.

"No, there's another room far more important to our story. Isn't there, Briar?" Faybelle nudged Briar who uncrossed her arms, "But, it's forbidenn! The magic spinning wheel is locked away in the tower."

"Sounds like that's where we'll find the rose. Let's go."

Daring stepped his paw up to try and open the castle doors which did not budge. Fortunately, the key is hidden under a plant pot that Briar took and opened the doorway.

"Sorry, my bad."

The group were shocked to find the castle filled with huge vines of roses, locking up the doors to the entrance. "Hmm, the openings that we can use to get through seem to be sealed. I wonder how we can get through...?" Rosabella thought as she walked around the place.
