“Look east and west at the corner of Iota Path and the Noxi Road.”

That is what Blitz told Sonja last night when he said to go find the Enchantress. Scanning both sides of the Chunky River at this intersection she stood and observed. The east side of the forest was dense and difficult to walk through. The westside had large groups of trees growing in huddles with bushes and low plants covering the ground in some places. The sun sparkled off of flowers and rocks on the ground on this side of the forest.

“What do I do now?” she wondered and noticed the moon in the northern sky. A smile came over her face as she grabbed the rune of air around her neck and took a deep breath. Stretching out her arms with palms up said, “Moon above, please grant me your wisdom. Tell me how to find that which I seek.”

The wind started to blow in a circles. Leaves lifted up above her head. A whisper said, “Like you summoned me…summon her.” Seconds later the leaves floated down and the dust settled to the ground. Brushing the blue hair out of her face and holding her arms out she called, “Enchanter Daphne, curator of the book of ancient spells. I need your help. A life of kindness instead of evil is what I seek. I’m asking for your guidance. I need a spell to break a curse.”

The screech of an owl broke the tension in the air and seconds later it was flying in front of her face. The bird landed on a tree branch nearby and tilted its head back and forth while staring at her.

“Are you Enchanter Daphne?” The bird shook its head from left to right. Letting out a sigh she said, “Oh, I was hoping you were and you could help me.” Sonja scanned the forest again and took a few steps towards the west. The owl let out a short squeak and flew to a tree heading east. He turned around and glared. Then it flew to another tree in the same direction and looked back.

“Do you want me to follow you?” She asked.

The bird frowned and then shook its head up and down.

“I’ll be right behind,” she said and hurried to catch up with the great horned owl.

The bracelet on her wrist from the Order of the Dark Sisters was covered by her sleeve. It was secretly glowing. Hidden in the bottom of her bag was Blitz who now feared that he would be eaten by the owl. “What have I gotten us both into?” he worried.
