"Well, we're all here in the library again." Muttered Luke, looking around at the assembled group.
Cat smiled weakly. "Do you know, I think that this is it. Up those stairs is the last challenge, and once we solve that, Petey."
Moira grinned brightly. "I think she's right. Well, this is one in the face for traitor Harry, isn't it? And he didn't think we'd make it."
"Don't start celebrating quite yet."Valerian added, voice neutral. "The last levels always the hardest. And now they'll be pulling out all the stops, exploiting every loophole, twisting every rule in order to win"
"Joy. We'd better be on our toes then." Cat said, leading the way towards the stairs. "Come on. Let's go."
The stairs were elegant and grand, the banisters formed from beautiful swirls and vine-like shapes. But what struck Cat was the crystalline appearance of the staircase, as it sparkled in the low lighting. No, not crystal, not glass. Ice.
She placed a tentative foot on the first step. Chill seeped into her shoes, but the staircase held firm.
"Come on everyone, let's go."
And they began to walk up the stairs, to their awaiting fate above.

Anyone want to take a guess at the last tale? Go on, have a go!
