Once the dust begins to settle they see the stone table at the far end of the room is covered in scrolls. There are even some on the seating area that lies on either side of the room.copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7U5LLTRyuF
Límíng wù starts to make his way over to the table and says in a soft voice, "I have brought you an old classic story. It is about powerful Fire Gods that live far to the west."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLA0v1WNf1
They all watch a beautiful Forest Spirit appears in front of the young Dragon. The fairy like creature is no bigger than the child's hand. It is dressed in light green petals with a glowing flower hovering a few inches off her tiny head. She looks at him with large blue eyes and speaks in a sweet child like voice. However, there is a problem only Dreamers and Soul Drinkers are able to understand what they are saying. copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQzt1ps7sa
They are all pleased when she takes the offering and Longwei says, "I am going to see if Lèguān is available."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6dEkdDK1q
The others watch him place a piece of cloth down on the floor that has seen better days. The whole thing is full of scourged holes and two corners have broken off at some point. The Father of the Gods writes on a piece of paper and sends it through the message incantation. It is not long before they get something back and Longwei quickly pats out all the burning edges as it unfolds. copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpkusnp49v

"Yes, he came here after Dorjee disappeared. Lèguān was hoping he had left us a clue to where he could be. There was nothing. So he left a porting stone here in the grounds, that way he was able to come and check on the place whenever he needed to."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCZXGdrgLg

The little Spirit nods and Lèguān carries on in the other language, "They are slightly taler than this one. They have purl like hair," pointing his hand to a bead in his feather hairpin. "Ah, and they jingle when they walk... Yè yuàn, take a turn of the room."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EBnb1gxpI

"Light green. Wore lots of rings. Xuě yuèliàng. That makes sense when he knew Dorjee quite well," says the Ancient Dreamer, placing his hands behind his back. "I will go and see him as he might know why Dorjee left the other key in the bathroom."84Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgwvMe5cBW

"Good thinking," says the Ancient Dreamer, as he takes it. He then steps outside and says. "A'la sin."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVj2pjS6OF

They all make their way over to the kitchen. Longwei uses his abilities to open the door. Once inside they begin to look around. All the paint on the walls is peeling and vine has come through a hole in the thatched roof. There are mouse droppings on the floor and the table.copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3lABWJ6yh
The Head Northern Healers, takes a look inside the oven and says, "My Dorjee did not clean this out very often. Look at the pile of ash."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPQ3z0fgYD
The others join him to see the ash fills around half of the oven.copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKlvqnhQjb
Longwei shakes his head and replies, "Yes, that is him. He would very rarely clean out the hearth, he would just make new fire on top of last nights ash. Aunty was always telling him off. Now I wonder if you can do what your father did, he would use his moving object ability to pick up the ash in a bubble and send it outside."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQQQoS4WzD
Yè yuàn smiles and says with a hit of a laugh, "Look at that face, you have him all eager to try it. Go for it, my son."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFsUi0kNsS

Mùsè helps his father to clear the table and take all of the pots out back to place them next to the well to be washed. However there is a small problem there is nothing to draw up the water and they both begin to call for the Father of the Gods.copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6QH1zJO6f

Límíng wù watches the ball of ash get bigger, when it wobbles he takes a deep breath. This helps him to stop trying to control the ability and carry on allowing it to do its own thing. Because if he does not, the bubble will pop. Once all of the ash is gathered up, he slowly makes his way over to the open back door and the moving objet ability sends it out into the garden.copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPJFuaVp6b

"Lèguān," he says sliding it open. "What brings you here old friend?"copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBy6YHVFbB

"Oh and what makes you say that, old friend?" Xuě yuèliàng asks, helping him to remove his boots.copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrY4R73KWL

"Oh my goodness, that is a key to the archives at the lost order. Come on through and tell me why you have it."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeI4mnFnpC
The Ancient Dreamer goes on to tell him what has happened. Even his dear friend wonders how much of it is Límíng following in his father's footsteps; or did the Forest God get his children to lead him there.copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡTivRwaZ3ew
Xuě yuèliàng does his old friend a bowl of noodles, topped with chopped vegetables, spring onions and a couple of half boiled duck egg. He takes a seat and says, "Either way, it is nice to know once again it has been found.

"I think you are right as I was picking up good vibes from the forest."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMillldafd
The Ancient Healer eats some of his meal, he picks up the key and says, "Dorjee, came to me in the middle of the night. He placed a triangle shaped one, here on the table. It was almost like he was pleading with me, to keep it secret and safe."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtmacPPTuC
Lèguān finishes his mouthful and asks, "Do you remember where you put it? If needed I can give you a hand to recall."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uC3gsqPx9
Xuě yuèliàng laughs and replies, "My memory is not that bad. I do recall placing it in a chest within my bedroom, because they contain, funny enough, scrolls that need to be kept secret and safe. Now the question is, did I put it in the one near the door or the window."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtvMDYnBgI
"In that case, let's each take one."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLpy4lJyeM
This makes the Ancient Healer lean over the table, he takes hold of his old friend's hand and says in a soft voice, "Cannot wait to get me in the bedroom ay?"copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7aF67uGUl
"You are never going to let that go, are you?"copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkdf0OQldt
"No, never. You kissed me, passionately. It is about time you admit, you love me. Come on, you can admit it."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPebZu3eUN
The Ancient Dreamer shakes his head and replies, "In my defence, it was just impulse. I honestly thought I was going to loose you. I just wanted you to know how much I like you and it came out all wrong."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQ3sRl2KV0
"Wrong?" Xuě yuèliàng says still laughing. "No, not at all. It was wonderful and no matter how many centuries go by, I will always remember it. Anyway, before I have you hiding under the table. You are right, each of us take a chest we will find it in no time."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDvQIiF1mN
Lèguān kisses the back of his dear friend's hand and they continue to eat their meal. Once they are done, they make their way to the bedroom.

All of a sudden the Ancient Dreamer pulls his hand from the chest and says, "Ouch! That was sharp," looking at his middle finger. "And I am bleeding."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAH8bDSZgC
This brings his dear friend over to him, he starts to examine the tiny cut to see it is clean, so he heals it. "There all better," he says, giving it a kiss.copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS9Q6LZgZ3

"All right, stop me if this begins to sound familiar. Long ago this place was a rest point for merchants, who were trading across the north. I am sure you have been warned to do no harm to the Dark Forest."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31GygZqIdP

Xuě yuèliàng nods and says, "That's right. That is the reason why we must make sure no harm comes to them. You see back then someone did not pay attentions to those warnings. They just thought the gods, that were here, were overreacting. No harm ever came from taking things from a forest. So one day a man cut down a tree within the Dark Forest."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡs041C4yNPJ
"Bad idea."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡWB6JEAKjGn
"Exactly. The man knew he was doing something wrong. However, he chose to ignore, even his own instincts and carried on. He placed the fallen tree on a small cart and pulled it back to this rest spot. Unknowing to him a Spirit, one of Chūnfēng's own children lay inside. Of course the moment the mortal began chopping it up, the little Spirit came flying out to find he was no longer in his home."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrAlYlisb9
The young Dragon shakes his head and asks, "No, the mortal kept him?"copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwwmD1t25S
"Yes. Once his father was alerted he was missing and the tree he was sleeping in was gone, the Forest God knew a mortal was responsible. Mainly because they are savage heartless things, who destroy rather than live in harmony with nature. Just like any father he was angry his child was taken from him and because the one who had him refused to give him back, Chūnfēng began to tear open the buildings. It was only then the mortals realised the creature they were warned about...was real."copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwAahh1rRH
"Did he find his son?"copyright protection80ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIWlnSTVUC
"Yes. When Chūnfēng was just about to tear the roof of the kitchen a fellow god came running over to him with the lost child within his hands. Once he was back with his father they returned to the forest. The people who were here left this place in fear and for a long time it was abandoned. Until it was found by your father.
