" BREATHING HEAVILY, THE WIZARD CRAWLED TOWARDS THE SWORD PIECES FALLEN NEAR ME. ' I'LL..GET YOU. I WILL..HAVE..YOUR..MAG..MAGIC. I'LL TAKE IT ALL. EVEN IF I DIE I'LL TAKE YOU. I WANT..YOU.' BUT HEY! WHAT A MIRACLE? AS SOON AS HE TOUCHED THE SWORD PIECES I STARTED TO GLOWED AND A FEW OF MY GLITTERS CAME FLYING DOWN AT HIM AND SAT ON HIS FACE. THEN...LO AND BEHOLD... JUST LIKE THAT ALL HIS WOUNDS HEALED UP AND HE WAS BACK IN HEALTH. THE SURPRISED WIZARD GOT UP AND WITHOUT REALISING WAS BOWING TO ME. WHEN HE GOT UP I TALKED TO HIM ABOUT CHANGING HIS WAYS AND SURPRISINGLY HE TOO HAD A CHANGE OF HEART AS I HAD SAVED HIS LIFE INSTEAD OF DRAINING IT. SO HE PERSONALLY TOOK IN-CHARGE OF THE SWORD PIECES AND WENT OFF TO A FAR PLACE AND HID IT WELL. WITHOUT THE SWORD NEAR ME I SOON STARTED TO CRUMBLE AS IT WAS MY SUPPORT BUT NOW THAT YOU HAVE FOUND IT AND BROUGHT IT BACK, IAM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL FOR ALL OF YOU." , the totem finally concluded the story.

Grendale and the others were rendered speechless by this.. this...I-don't-know-what-to-say-type of story. All the while the Totem was telling it's story, the needle sword was still hanging up there repairing it's broken self. By the time the story ended it was all fixed and ready to sew all the enemies as tapestry to the underworld's walls. It slowly and gently comes floating down directly into Grendale's hands. The Totem eyed the glowing sword in his hands and understood that it's destiny lies with him and so when Grendale was about to keep the sword at it's feet it stopped him and asked him to take the sword with him. When Grendale tried reasoning with it that the sword was its power source and had to be with it, the Totem explains to him that more than it being a power source, it was a magical sword. Bad things get easily attracted to things like this which are powerful and moreover if any evil did come here sniffing at it's power what could an immovable statue like itself could do to stop it from taking it. Hence the sword was best and safe with him and it'll be really glad if it came to any help for him.

Prince Koda was jumping up and down overjoyed at this gift while Grendale touched by this kind gesture bows politely to it and asks for its leave. The Totem then uses it's glitter trail to create a huge (even Goltimer fitting) portal and askes the trio to step into it. The three take a deep breath and clutching each other's hand step into the portal only to be hit by bright light that renders them unconscious. "Ummm....oooowww", clutching his head where it still throbbed from pain of being hit by such a bright light, Grendale gradually regains consciousness. At first everything is in blurry multicolors, but when he blinks several times everything comes back to focus and... WOAH!!.. they are back in that mystic cavern. He quickly gets up and looks around for the others. A few feet away he sees the leg of Koda and runs towards him. He shakes the unconscious prince hard and manages to wake him up but where is Goltimer?. As he keeps looking around Koda still a little bit dizzy decides to help. After searching around a bit he calls out to Grendale and clutching his mouth to stop himself from laughing points out to a big stone figure half sleeping in the pond and half sprawled on the ground as a big bunch of rocks. Koda bursts out laughing while Grendale goes over to wake him up.

After Goltimer was up and ok, the trio set off towards the exit once again. Thankfully this time it wasn't glowing. As they crossed the threshold of the exit a few distance away they arrived at an enormous grounds which was purple in color. They had arrived at the famous cliffside, ' The Welderman's Camp cliff ' which was like a big rest house for travelers. It was an enormous place which stretched for miles and had strangely purple soil. It was night time when they had arrived there, hence the pathway was lit with fire torches stuck into the grounds. As they passed the gates they came across many such fellow traveling campers like orcs, elvin teenagers, even some hybrids like satyrs, centaurs, even wood nymphs that were going on a pilgrimage to a distant place, that were staying the night in the camp cliff. Very soon they came across a punk styled dragon girl (in human form but still had her horns and tail on her) who was standing not far from the entrance leaning against a pole studying her map of the grounds. As they approached her she gave them a tired how-I-help-you' look. Grendale quickly booked a place for them to stay and was negotiating a deal with her when she looked at Goltimer and her eyes widened.

Seeing his enormous self her tiredness evaporated like magic and with a nervous chuckle she whispered to Grendale , " I am not sure if we can get you enough space to fit your 'big' friend here. Would you mind if we give you a place at little far off into the grounds. "
