"This is where Senkrad was defeated." Queen Aaliyah told them as she walked into the Glittering Grotto, the others shivering even in their giant winter coats.
"Blimey! Its blinkin colder in here than it is outside, mun!" Tiny told Gascon, but he was watching Queen Aaliyah, who seemed uncertain as she moved about the icy cave. She walked slowly, glancing in each direction with a look of fear, twisting the fluff on her coat and pushing her hair back constantly.
"Your Moojesty?" She jumped at Gascon's voice. "Are you okay?" She nodded.
"Yes, I'm alright." She told him, turning a corner in the cave and heading into a dark corridor. "Its just... been a long time since I've. been here."
"When were you here last?" Camille asked, hurrying to catch up, Tiny and Abyssa not far behind.
"Oh, I was probably about your age." She said, her look of fear increasing as the corridor grew darker as they walked.
"Why were you here?" Camille didn't know when to stop. Queen Aaliyah shrugged nervously.
"Oh, I don't remember. It was a very long time ago." Then she stopped, and pressed against the wall, running her hand along the ice. "This is the spot." She murmured, taking a deep breath, closing her eyes, then she pressed her staff to the ice, and the kids watched in amazement as it melted away before them, revealing another corridor! "He was down there." She told them, letting out the air she was holding in. "Be careful. Senkrad was an evil man, and whatever could create a Sage in his likeness is doubtless to have no good in it at all." Gascon nodded, then led the girls and Tiny down the corridor, looking for a light.
"Magic Lamp!" Gason whispered, a harsh glowing falling around him as they moved down the corridor, the cold seeping through their thick coats and making them shiver.
All of a sudden, a brighter, more gentle glow could be seen, just as Gascon's spell wore off. They hurried towards it, getting warmer with each step, when Tiny slipped on the ice, sliding into Camille, who fell and tripped Abyssa, who landed on Gascon, and all four of them went sliding into another room and hit the wall!
"Tiny!" They all exclaimed, the teeny fairy climbing out from under them, blushing, until he looked up and gasped.
"You might want to take a look at this one, mun." He murmured, and Gascon looked towards the wall, letting out a yell in shock and kicking against it to get away. There was a foot! A foot in the wall! A human freaking foot!
"Gascon!" Abyssa yelped as the three of them went sliding across the ice, pushing him off of her. "What was that-?" She screamed, covering her eyes when she saw the wall, Camille wide eyed.
"Wow. Never thought I'd get to see one of those this early in life! Mum said she hadn't seen one til she met Brody!" In the wall, frozen in the ice, was a boy. A boy who seemed to be a little older than them, wearing nothing but the ice. He looked asleep, curled up in a ball within the ice.
"Who do you think that is?" Gascon asked, looking up at the boy's face. He had pale, pale skin, with long long black hair that surrounded him. "He looks kind of, familiar."
"He should to you, young Songster." Came an eerie voice, and they all turned to see a misty unicorn trotting over to them. "Do not be frightened, children. You should know who I am."
