"How are we supposed to get there?" I ask when we walk outside the gate.
"Not sure," Henry answers.
"Do you know where it is?"
"No idea."
"Well that's helpful!"
"Acutely, it's not."
"It's called sarcasm, clearly isn't in this realm," I say. "Do you have a map?"
"No, maybe there's-Whoa," he says.
"What?" I ask.
He points a little to my left. When I look, I see a sparkling glow.
"Whoa," I say.
The glows starts to go away, revealing a piece of paper. Henry goes over and grabs it, but starts to frown.
"I thought it was going to be a map, but it's a blank piece of paper," he says.
"Let me see," I say.
Henry hands the paper to me, and something strange happened. Ink starts to appear from where I was touching the paper. I gasp, dropping the paper and I step back.
"What happened?" he asked, grabbing the paper.
He takes a look at the paper, and he gasps.
I stare down at my hands. I don't know what to do. I'm speechless.
"Did you do that?" Henry asks.
"I-I-I don't know," I say.
Henry grabs my hand and put the paper in it. Once again, ink crosses the page. At first, it looks like nothing but lines, but then, the ink forms a into a drawing. The drawing is not a drawing, it's a map. With details that make it look real. It look as if it popping out at me. It's beautiful. But one thing that stands out: Dark Queen's Castle and Kingdom of Joy is written on the map with a line connecting. Henry flips it over, considering I wasn't moving, and there was a layout of the queens castle. It was very detailed. Very useful.
"Magic?" he asks.
"Magic," I say, bewildered.
"You have magic!" he says.
"I think," I say.
"Very useful. We can break everyone out know without a problem."
"Yeah."
"Let's go," he says.
Henry pulls me along as we start walking into the woods. A line appears as we start. I think I did that. We follow that line. It will take us there.
