Zack's eyes were filled with excitement as he leaned forward, his voice animated. "So if Emma saw the place with the day and night, then we'll be able to find the entrance!"
"But... he said ["The entrance isn't anywhere, yet everywhere"]... just what are we trying to find?" Don asked.
"Let's return to the shelter. Something similar to the golden water.... did the same thing happen as at Goldy Pond?" Ray leaned in, his face thoughtful.

"Check out the first shelf, second row from the top, the fifth and seventh books from the left. And in the fourth row, the tenth book from the left. On the second shelf, in the top row, the ninth and fifteenth books from the left. As well as the fourth shelf, third row from the top." Ray instructed.
"Yes!" Chris, Alicia, and Mark began to meticulously follow his directions, their diligence a stark contrast to the unease in the room, as other members unfamiliar with Grace Field watched with wide-eyed curiosity.
