CHAPTER 456
"Shall we continue our stroll, grandfather?" Astrid asked, her face beaming with even more smiles.
"Sure, my dear. Come there is something I need to show you. It would be amazing."
"Really? I love seeing amazing things," she joked, laughing and hoping to lighten the atmosphere.
"That is great then. Come on now you have got to walk faster than that."
Together they followed another entrance back into the palace and made their way through the stairs till they came to a lonely passageway and began to walk in the direction of the lonely passage.
By the time they got to another bend, Astrid stilled.
She did not mean to but the darkness and eerie feeling of the place scared her and she used her powers to sense what was ahead and the second she did that, she stilled and then the passageway in front of her, light up, shining and bursting forth with a glorious enchanting blue light.
