Chapter 2 – The threat appears

Eventually, Podkin and the other rabbits decide what belongings they need and then left the tree of ghosts. They went out quietly so that ghosts wouldn’t hear them walking and watch them leave. When they left the Tree of Ghosts, they crossed the Lake Bridge and reached Castle Purple. Podkin said to the other rabbits, “We’ll just keep walking and past that castle.” Paz and Pook did agree about what Podkin said to them. While Podkin and the other rabbits were walking to another castle called Siren Castle, it was still dusk and dark in the clear night, but suddenly, there was a wind that came from Castle Purple. Podkin and the other rabbits heard a wind blow to them.  

 Paz said, “Me and Pook felt the wind from somewhere on the right so you felt the wind as well Podkin?” Podkin said to Paz, “Yes, I felt the wind already.  

 “Then do you know where it came from?” replied Pook.  

“It came from the castle we went past from Pook.” said Paz. 

Podkin was about to say to them that he and them should keep walking and think about their belongings that they need for the Gorm. The Gorm was excited to turn Podkin and the other rabbits to be Gorms but the Gorm was still waiting for them. The first guard of Castle Purple shouted to Podkin and the other rabbits, “Hey!” 

“Who are you?” asked Podkin.  

“We’re the guards of Castle Purple,” said the second guard. 

“Oh, we see who you are now,” replied Paz. Podkin and the other rabbits kept walking and the guards were still standing where they secure people. Podkin and the other rabbits saw the little caves that was 10 miles away from the Gorm in The Goblin’s Palace. They went into the Little Cave while Podkin was holding the lamp. Podkin decided to hold the lamp because the Little Cave was dark inside. Podkin and the other rabbits walked and looked around what was inside the cave. “It’s very cold here!” said Pook. 

“Don’t worry Pook, you are warm because you are near me.” replied Paz.

Podkin saw something which was light. The other rabbits saw what Podkin was holding. 

“It looks like a diamond,” said Podkin.

“Might be coming from the Gorm.” said Paz.

“Really?” asked Pook.

“I don’t know,” said Podkin. 

“I hope that the diamond wasn’t from the Gorm!” said Pook loudly. 

“Shh, someone might hear us. I know that you want to speak loudly Pook, but someone might have heard our voices,” said Podkin.

“I’m sorry,” said Pook.

“That’s ok,” said Podkin.

Paz called Podkin’s name quietly and told Pook to come near him so he could get warmer.

“What,” said Podkin.

“I think we have to keep walking,” said Paz.

“Yes Paz, you’re right. We shall continue walking,” said Podkin.
