We all waited for the king to continue. It was really stressful to just stay there and think what horrible thing he wanted to do to us, after seeing the books he had in his library. I was so desperate that I even started thinking that mabye he did not wanted to do anything bad to us, mabye those books were there just to get us confused and scared, as he already knew that we will stay in that room. I keep telling myself not to panic.

Finally, he started talking again

"... But first, I need to tell you that one of you will have a quest- actually, to be honest, it is not really of a quest- not related to your powers, but related to our personal interests and life. It might be even a honor to that one of you wich is chosen. I think that will not actually be hard, but it depends on how you see it. You can see it as an torture, or, mabye, as a honor for all of you. I will not tell you right now who is the chosen one, but that respective person will know by the twilight of tomorrow."
