be uninhabited by people.”
    “How am I supposed to get there? I mean won’t there be guards stationed at every exit?”
    “Don’t worry, I will prepare everything for you. Just get dressed and ready for the trip.”
    “I can’t believe this is actually happening. What about mother and father?”
    “What about them?” I questioned, wondering why she would worry about them, now that she has what she came for.
    “Wouldn’t they worry, if they find out that I am gone?”
    “You will not have to worry about that happening. It shouldn’t take you that long to obtain your dragon. You have been trained and prepared for this moment for most of your life.”
    Judging by the way she gripped the cover and looked away from me, I could tell that my perfect little sister may not be that perfect after all.
    “Okay, when can I leave?” Cordelia uttered, her voice filled with determination.
    “Whenever you are ready. I will give you some time to dress, and prepare yourself.”
    “Thank you Nerissa this is great!” Cordelia surprised me by hugging me all of a sudden. “I am sorry, it is just I am so excited.”
    “You don’t have to thank me, don’t forget I have my own selfish reasons why I am doing this.” I honestly expressed pushing her away.
    “I know,” Cordelia smiled, oblivious to the truth of my words.
    I will not let her false smile sway me. After today I will no longer have to be the recipient of her forced affections.

    My heart felt as if it was going to jump out of my chest. I was trembling with fear, and yet I knew it must be done. I can’t rely on Angie strength or April wisdom, for this task there will be only me.
    I quickly showered and dressed in the loosest outfit I could find. If I was going to find a dragon I do not want to have to worry about my breathing being constricted.
    I wished I would have thought to bring my backpack from the carriage with me. I don’t know what might be in store for me once I get to Drystan’s Pool. What if I am actually supposed to bring back a real dragon? What if it’s not friendly? If I voiced all of my concerns to Nerissa, it would be a dead giveaway to the truth of the matter. I don’t know anything.
    Nerissa was silent as she led me from our room down a series of hallways. I don’t see how anyone can navigate through these corridors, there was nothing marking them to tell them apart. After we had been walking for about fifteen minutes, she finally stopped in front of a massive door.
    “This is it, are you ready?”
    I would be lying if I said yes, so I just settled for a simple nod. Once the door to the room was open I recognized it to be very similar to the room where we entered Sapphire Kingdom.
    “I know this room,” I admitted as I slowly entered in behind Nerissa.
    “You should, anytime someone leaves or enter the Kingdom they will have to come through a transport room." Nerissa muttered as she started feeling around on the walls. “You should be okay using this one since it is the closest one to Drystan’s Pool. I do not believe it has been used for quite some time.”
    For some reason that did not comfort me, I keep getting a feeling that there is more to Drystan’s Pool than what Nerissa is telling me, but then again there is a lot that everyone in Eupai is keeping secret from me.
    “How does the transport room work?”
    “I am working on it. Here it is.” Nerissa announced as she held the palm of her hand against the wall.
    Underneath her palm glowed as the entire back wall to display a picture of above the water, and off in the distance was a piece of land that looked different from the beautiful white sandy beach that led to the kingdom. It actually looked a little dreary and dark.
    “I see celtas aren’t used in the kingdom that much.” I construed out loud based on how long it took her to activate one.
    “No, there not. Celtas
