Alan and Dylan reached the end of the tunnel too.
But it was a completely different place.
It was all brown and walls were wooden, and on the ground a lot of circles were drawn from the center till the edges, like they were walking inside a tree trunk.
There was just a big tree in the middle and someone under it, they got closer carefully. He was a young boy.
His eyes were closed while mediating.
At first, they didn't want to interrupt him so they kept waiting for him to open his eyes, but he didn't even move an inch, he was like a statue.
- Is He dead? Said Dylan while whispering.
Suddenly the boy opened his eyes, he looked kind of angry.
- What you seek of is very precious. Will you pay the price?
- Are you talking about...
- You know what I'm talking about.
- We will give you what you want just give us the stone, my wife is dying.
The boy's expression changed, he smiled so suddenly.
- Do you think that you will find the stone ready in a corner for you to pick up?
- What do you mean? Don't you have the stone?
- No, I don't. Actually, no one has the stone. You have to make it yourself, and pay the price for it.
Alan and Dylan became more confused.
" What is he saying? How are we going to do that?"
