The Unexpected Visitor (Part 2)

The group rode all night until they reached Mist Mountain. Lady Starr stopped her horse and dismounted by what looked like a cave in the side of the mountain.

“It’s this way.” Lady Starr said.

The others dismounted and followed her.

Lady Starr led Princess Endora, Dulcina and Dionne down broken steps into a tomb. Princess Endora twinkled the torches lit.

“What is this place?” Princess Endora asked.

“This is the resting place of my Father.” Lady Starr said. “This is the last place I saw Kyo’s father. We were arguing and went out for air to calm down. When I came back, he was gone. There is no other way in but the way we came.”

Endora looked around. She took one of the torches from the wall and started to inspect the walls closely. “Maybe there is a secret opening somewhere.”

“I looked but there isn’t one.” Lady Starr said.

Dionne looked at the floor. There were burn marks and ash next to the tomb. “Lady Starr isn’t Kyo’s father a phoenix?”

“Yes he is.” Lady Starr looked at Dionne and smiled.

“Could he have just flown out while you weren’t paying attention? Dulcina asked as she looked at a spider web.

“A phoenix is a huge creature I would have noticed him.” Lady Starr ran her hand over the top of the tomb absent mindedly.

Princess Endora looked up at the ceiling. “Not if he went that way.”

“That’s too small he would never fit.” Lady Starr said.

“He would if he were a chick. There are scorch marks and ashes here.” Dionne pointed to the floor.

Lady Starr looked at where Dionne was pointing. “I thought that may be from the last time.”

Princess Endora brought the torch over to take a closer look. “These are fresh. He must have burnt then flew out the air shaft.”

“I think I know where he is.” Lady Starr said. “Let’s go.”
