Soon enough, Seth Rovallo announced to David, Hillary, Charleton, Nick and Robert that they had reached their destination. This was made evident when Seth parked the van that he had been driving and everyone else got out to see the the same castle that David had seen when he had first arrived in Evermore, only this time, he was much closer to it!
However, David, the others and the van were still a good distance away from the castle, so as not to be instantly noticed by Koval's forces, who could also be seen guarding the castle. Seth told David and the others that this was as close as he could take them and that from her on out and until they succeeded with their mission and rescued Princess Lesley and got out of the castle with her in tow, they were pretty much on their own.
Seth did reassure David, Robert, Nick, Charleton and Hillary that he and his brothers would be ready to give them any useful advice or instructions if they chose to ask for their help. He also made them promise to avoid any confrontation with King Koval himself if they ran into him while inside the castle unless they had no other choice but to do so.
Be warned that if any of you face King Koval, he will be a very dangerous opponent!" Seth cautioned. "If you do have to fight him, remember to not underestimate him as doing so might be the last mistake you'll make!"
David and the others nodded. David and the others then turned to the castle and noticed something about it that they hadn't seen before. Now, that they were so close to it and were paying much more attention to it, their eyes widened when they suddenly realized that the castle was huge!
"What the heck!?" David cried out in shock. "This castle is so big!"
"Well, Koval's a freakin' giant, David!" Charleton reminded David. "It's supposed to be big! Otherwise, how would someone of his size be able to live in it in the first place!?"
David just ignored Charleton's response. "This is quite a castle here!" David spoke. "Why couldn't me and my mother live in a castle instead of that dumb and messy shack that we call a home instead?"
"I wonder if this place has a spa. It would be nice to get a pedicure or something!" Hillary said to which everyone else all looked at her with strange looks. "Hey! I'm just curious is all!"
"I wouldn't mind seeing how the castle looks in the inside as well," Robert admitted. "Afterall, it's not everyday you get to see, much less go inside a giant's castle!"
"This isn't a field trip! You can't afford to goof off during this mission!" Seth reminded Robert, David, Hillary, Nick and Charleton. "You're to sneak in there and only find and rescue the princess and that's it!"
