Minta nodded as Cora explained the last details to her, she pulled her thick blue hair thoughtfully. “Just one thing, how do we convince Gumwart to let us out, after you yelled at him like that?” Cora grinned. We don’t have to. ‘summon me’ he said, first time we saw him, remember? While he shimmers into view, we can all jump to the beam, which he helpfully said was his front door, so we should, -fingers crossed- all end up wherever he is.” Minta looked slightly alarmed. “What if it is an unfriendly territory? Like Ashuka?” She gulped. Ashuka was the territory of the Nymphs, [Niads and Driads]. And they could be unfriendly to say in the least. Cora sighed, breaking Minta’s train of thought. “Well, lets do this; Zlyde! Come get us you fat ugly lump!” She hollered. Cora was not very good at cutting insults. She caught Minta off-guard. They were leaving now. Who knew what was on the other side of the door? Zlyde appeared in the doorway, looking very annoyed. But his expression changed immediately when Cora beckoned him into the room. They all held hands in a row, and then, “WIZARD GUMWART!” Cora shrieked. Zlyde felt his left eardrum pop and he flinched. The wizard began to shimmer into view. “Now!” Cora, Minta and Zlyde jumped towards the beam.
Nina and the others marched up to the front gate, and were let in. Lily let out a sigh of relief. Once they were in, they studied the map that had the convenience to be pinned to the wall in the first room. “Here.” Nina pointed to a hall labeled ‘Magic, mounts, prisoners, potions and weapons. Wands too.’ Lily studied the map. “We need to go left, right, double left right.” They then set off in the direction of the hall.
