Everyone walked down the path of the mountain. No one said anything. The path was surrounded by the trees of Diwantary Forest. These trees were very tall and smooth, without low branches, and ended in big and leafy crowns. Though it was all silent. There weren't any birds chirping, or deer running. Nothing. Will broke the silence.

– So – He started – This is Aurora? I liked it, it's very lively.

Ayla looked at Will and seemed to say '' another word and you're toast''.

– Ha, don't worry – Laughed Stella – This is the Diwantary Forest, no one ever comes here. It's where the Baransu God's temple is. Since it was infested by the Shuirekku, no one has ever come back here, not even the animals.

– I don't think I like knowing that – Whispered Callie.

– We are not far now – Assured Stella – Follow me.

– Look, I can see an opening – Commented Dalia – Can we go there and rest? After the dream in the Portal, I'm toast.

– Yes, good idea – Said Ayla.

– I don't know if I want to stay that much here... – Started saying Callie, but everyone had sat down – Okay, a little rest won't do me bad – Act after, she fell asleep.

– Stella? Do you have a moment? – Said Kitsune – I'd like to talk to you

– Yes, shure – She followed Kitsune apart.

– What do you guys think about... All of this? – Asked Howl.

– I'm a go with it, the police were about to catch me again, anyway – Answered suddenly Natt, Callie's cat.

– You can talk?? – Yawned Callie, waking up.

– I can talk?? – Exclaimed Natt at the same time.

– Stop shouting, we can all talk now – Cleared Yanlunnis, Ayla's phoenix, who could also talk now

– This day couldn't get any weirder – Ayla yawned – But I think it's time we went to sleep.

– Sleep? Now that I can talk, I have lots of things to tell you! You can't go to sleep! – Replied Natt.

– Yes, like what did you mean with ''the police catching you'' – Mentioned Howl with a smile.

– You know what? Ayla's right, it is very late, let's go sleep – Natt slipped away.

– This place is weird – Huffed Will's horse, Rigo.

– You can talk too? I bet you have a lot of things to tell me, old buddy – Uttered Will.

– Be quiet! – Shouted Ayla – People are trying to sleep here!

– What a killjoy – Mumbled Will.

– What did you want to tell me, Ivy? Was it really necessary to take me apart? – Asked Stella.

– You know what will happen in an hour or two, Stella. – Kitsune answered – You will die again, and leave the Baransu unprotected. We both know that you are more than a simple Guardian. You have the choice to be immortal, unlike the rest of the Guardians. Use it.

– You know as well as I do that I'll never use that power again – Replied Stella, angry.

– Think about it! – Kitsune Exclaimed – They may be immortal, but they can be killed. I saw it with my one two eyes, Stella! I saw how they found the Elixir of Death, and you know it won't be long until they find a way to enter Aurora!
