The Portal

Jake's POV

I haven't seen Mike in a really long time. I wonder what he was upto. How far along was he in his training? Last I heard he was furnishing his magical skills, but it's been like he disappeared from the face of earth or something. After I decided to find a cure for Maland's hand, I did some snooping around. Thanks to my friendly nature, it was not hard to talk to people. While I didn't get any significant lead, I did hear that in ancient literature of the Goblins, there might be something to undo it. 

Of course, there was no such thing in the library here, so it must be in the world of Goblins. After taking two days off of doing basically nothing, I decided to head off to Mike's room. How busy was he? I pondered. I tried knocking on the door thrice before I decided to check if it was unlocked or not. It wasn't, but luckily Victoria left me her spare key which Mike gave her for safekeeping.
