Remuel melded into the forest with his outlaws and the area around the waterfalls became clear of any sign of human activity. The small hole that served as entrance to the tunnels was very well hidden under a thick curtain of vines that it would be impossible to find for anyone who did not know that it was there.Eldion felt the wind blow and heard the rustle of leaves as the branches of the trees swayed. There was a faint spray of water that fell on his face and he seemed to remember the same feeling although he was not sure when. He looked at the glorious waterfalls that cascaded over the cliff face that was covered with moss that shone in the sunlight. Only the waterfalls and its pool were reached by sunlight as most of the area was shaded by the thick canopy overhead formed by the towering trees.“Let’s go, Eldion,” said Wen and Eldion remembered that they needed to follow the river downstream. He quickly joined Wen as she walked over the large pe

They had not traveled far when Casser got off his seat in front of the cart. He looked inside the cart and found Wen and Eldion to be sleeping. He did not said a word and walked towards the side of the ancient road where there was a tree with overhanging branches. Perched on one of the branches was a white pigeon like those that he had inside the cage. Casser confirmed that it was one of his pigeons when he saw the string that was tied around one of its legs.Carefully, Casser approached the branch and took the pigeon from the branch. The pigeon protested at having been interrupted, but let itself be handled by Casser without much resistance. Casser looked around him and at the cart. Then, he picked a small orchid bud that was growing on the tree branch. He carefully tied this around the pigeon’s leg before tossing the pige

Mira was glad that the seats had been cleared earlier and that she could lie down properly. She took one of Casser’s garments and piled them on one end of the seat to make a pillow. She had just lain down to sleep when she noticed Eldion looking at her.“What is it Eldion?” asked Mira. “Can’t sleep?”“There’s just something bothering me,” replied Eldion. He looked at the space near the front end of the cart from which he took the empty pigeon cage to make space for feet. “Maybe it’s nothing, but I can’t get it out of my head.”Mira decided to sit up, sensing that whatever it was that was bothering Eldion could be important. “Do you want to talk about it?” Mira asked Eldion. “I’m not that sleepy anyway.”Eldion paused and looked at the front side of the cart that was normally open when they travel and through which he could see Casser as he guided No

It was still dark when Eldion opened his eyes. He heard Casser snoring as he slept on the seat across from Eldion. Momentarily, Eldion felt an impulse to feel around his pillow for something before he realized that his pillow was just a bunch of garments that Casser was selling. As for that something that he was looking for, Eldion was not exactly sure. Whatever it was, he forgot about it as he came to his full consciousness. He decided to sit up and take a few breaths before getting out of the cart. Not far from the cart was the small fire where Wen was still seated.  Eldion approached her and sat by her side. Wen was surprised that Eldion was already up.“It’s still too early. It’s not your turn yet,” said Wen as she poked the fire using a stick to spread the embers.“Is it? I don’t know what time it is,” said Eldion.Wen pointed up. “Well, the moon is still overhead. It’s about midnight a

Mira and Eldion squeezed through the thick bushes in pursuit of the giant lizard while Casser was not far behind, his taller frame making it more difficult to follow. Eldion placed an arm over his face to protect himself from the twigs while another hand pushed the branches away. Then, he heard a shout in front of him and realized that it was Mira. In a moment, he felt the ground give way under him and he found himself sliding on a steep incline of the ground.Eldion saw Mira in front of him and shouted in warning for her to get away. She had hardly moved her body to the side when a shout came from behind them and Eldion saw that Casser was likewise sliding down the slope towards him.Shaken, but otherwise uninjured, the three travelers looked around them and found that they were surrounded by broad green structures that looked like just one giant plant. Eldion stood up and brushed the dirt off his clothes. He looked up and saw the large opening through which the blue
