Alyssa raised an eyebrow at Enna. "And how do you know that? You said you didn't know what it looked like."
Enna scowled at her. "The Diamond Mountain is always snowing, even if it's summer. Also, like I said, there is jewelry on the top. See?" She pointed up on the mountain.
"Oh, that seems like a lot of jewelry and artifacts," Zalina muttered, staring at the top of the mountain. "How are we gonna find Queen Angelica's crown there?"
"We can worry about that later," Enna was studying the mountain. "Though what I'm worried about most, is how are we gonna get up there? We don't have climbing boots or anything."
Alyssa thought she did have a point. The mountain looked risky to climb, even if they did have climbing boots.
"How about this," Alyssa turned to her friends. "The three of us will climb the mountain at the same time. And, if one of us falls, we'll just have to climb back again."
Enna and Zalina exchanged looks, then agreed reluctantly.

They've been climbing the mountain for a while. None of them have reached the top just yet. Alyssa and her friends were shivering from the cold already, and they were almost up there.
"Just... a few more," Alyssa muttered. "We can make it."
It had already been an hour. Finally, which seemed like forever, Alyssa made it to the top first, followed by Enna and Zalina.
"Right. We did it. So where is Queen Angelica's crown?" Alyssa asked the two girls, rummaging through the jewelry. "There are tiaras here, but I do not know if it's Queen Angelica's or not. But you two know what it looks like."
Enna stepped forward and pushed Alyssa away. She rummaged through the jewelry and finally, she found the crown. "Here it is." she handed it to Alyssa.
The crown was pure gold. It had all sorts of gems carved into it. As Alyssa held it, she stared at it in awe. "Alright. Let's get back-" Before she could finish her sentence, a piece of paper fell from the crown.
"What's that?" Enna eyed it.
"I don't know," Alyssa answered, and she picked it up. "But let's see."
