Synan and Zoe leave Mr. Is village.
In the crater, Sky Island finally passed over.
Prisem leads Synan and Zoe back through
the tunnel to Crystal Cave. So far, Synan and
Zoe have the Garden Key, as well as two
of the four elemental keys: Fire and Ice.
Soon, they get back to the “crossroads”
of the cave--Where you can go to the basement
of the Book Temple, or go to the volcano, or
go to Crystal Cave.
“Lets get back to the Book Temple!”
Zoe says. Another Prisem runs down the stairs
from Crystal Cave. “The Book Temple is still
locked up.”
“Oh. Then lets get in through the
basement!”
“That might work.” Synan says.
They go down the path to the basement of
the Book Temple. Shortly after, they are there. The
basement is full of little mechanisms. One looks like
an ink producer. It must make the magic ink. Another
machine makes the books and pages. Zoe and Synan
climb up a ladder under a trap door. They got into
the Book Temple.
“Were here. Whered she go?” Zoe says.
“I believe her name was Sarah.” Prisem says.
“Whatever. Shes not here though.”
“Then lets use the books!” Synan says.
Zoe opens a drawer in Sarahs desk. It is full of books.
All the books are of purple leather, and golden words
on the cover. One catches Zoes eye: Skyber Fortress.
In the picture, Zoe sees Lightning Palace on Sky Island.
“Synan! Lets use this one!”
Zoe and Synan gather up their monsters. Synan
goes in first, then Zoe follows.
They are soon standing on a tall stone tower,
like a plateau. There are many birds flying around. From
a bird perched ahead of them, they can be described.
The birds are all brown. They have long beaks,
from which their eyes stretch away from. They have black
diamond shapes on their foreheads, and three feathers
sticking up on top of their heads. Since there are no other
monsters here, they must be the Skybers, the birds of
lightning. There are many other plateaus around here, all
linked with bridges. This area is on top of the volcano,
closer to Crystal Cave. On the right side, the
entrance to Emeralds Crater is visible. Synan
and Zoe go into one of the structures, one that
looks like a castle. Inside is a tougher looking
Skyber. It is wearing a crown and a black
bandanna around its neck. The Skyber speaks,
“Let me guess. You came here for the
Lightning Key.”
“Howd you know?” Zoe wonders.
“Let me see all the monsters you have
captured.”
Synan and Zoe release their monsters.
“Good. Now I know you are not on
the side of evil..” Skyber finally says after looking
at Zoes Clawz and Prisem, and Synans Monk,
Crystal, and Emerald.
“Well. Heres the Lightning Key.” Skyber
gives Synan a key of yellow metal. Its end has a
jagged lightning bolt symbol.
“Ill have some Skybers fly you up to
Sky Island.”
Synan and Zoe leave and some Skybers
grab them and carry them off the ground. They land
on the floating island. All thats here is a stone
temple. Synan unlocks the door and enters. In the
center is a green pyramid-like crystal. When they
approach and look through it, the side in the ground
mirrors the side above. Along the walls are all kinds
of writing. Zoe reads them aloud.
“The Land of No Return: A small anti-world
that originated from The World of No Return, a
planet just outside Plutos orbit, the planet that humans
call Planet X. The Land of No Returns purpose was
to capture those simple minded humans so that one of
our most trusted monsters, Twilite, could morph them
into more monsters, only the common ones, like Monk
or Prisem.”
Zoe continues reading.
“The most powerful monsters on our island are
Veronica, the queen of the rock, at level 1,000. Then
there is the rare Myst, at level 5,000. The most powerful
monster is yet to come. He was a boy from Earth, being
genetically-engineered in Wizemans Fortress. This human
is weak, but he has the power to become Deity, the most
powerful being in the universe at level 1,000,000.”
Zoe tries to read more, but the words are blurred.
“Well, Synan. Weve learned a lot here. Theres
nothing more to do. Lets go now.”
“Oh okay. Right. We need to get the Earth Key
still!”
