        When Darci arrived in the forest, she passed out from fatigue. When Darci woke up the next morning, she began to cry because now she was truly alone in the world that wanted to imprison her. But, when Darci finally got herself together she began to explore the forest. Suddenly, she tripped on a tree root and fell. When Darci got back up, she saw a cave to search through. While in the cave, Darci discovered a danburite crystal. But, when she went to touch it the cave began to collapse. So, Darci rushed out of the cave and she never dropped the crystal. She made it out of the cave in one piece. Darci’s hand grabbed the clear gemstone, and it started to glow. When the glow died down, there was a floating silver fox above the stone. The fox seemed to be translucent. “Hello, I’m Darci. You are such a beautiful fox.” Darci said. “Well hello Darci, thank you for the compliment. My name is Reyla.” The fox, Reyla said. This made Darci faint.

        When Darci came to, she wondered what had happened. But, she then remembered what had happened, all of it. Darci heard a voice ask,” Are you okay?” It was Reyla. “Yes, I am fine,” Darci said. “Well, that’s good to hear. I’m sorry if I gave you a fright.” Reyla told Darci. “It’s fine, but who are you? And how did you get into the crystal?” Darci asked. Darci sat down on a nearby log. “Well, to answer your questions, I have to go back to the beginning,” Reyla said.
