ascended up and out of the volcano’s spout. I guided it to float on the sea. I popped the bubble with a proper twist of my lodestone ring, and laughed when Kar flopped splat on her back into the sea while I rode my broom in circles above her. She splashed around laughing and shifted to Dragon.
    â€œWhat do you know, Bek? What do you know? You must know something to do so such!” she eagerly hissed, venting curly blue flames from her nostrils.
    I did know something. Kar knew I did. We know each other so such that well.

    WAND!
    â€œThey rang ... sang about giving ... living in the ... the ... hill ... no ... chill! ... next to the ... the ...”
    â€œVault. I heard ‘em. Vault. What about it?”
    â€œThe chill is ... is ... the Great Sea ... the Great ... the ... that!”
    â€œThe volcano.”
    â€œYoss! That’s it!”
    â€œThe chill is the volcano? The wand is in a Vault next to the volcano. Where Vault? What Vault? Nothing around but open sea. Nothing but ... oh, what’s that little ...”
    â€œBump of socks ... clump of rocks? Yoss. Tiny island. Vault!”
    â€œThat? That little ... It’s barely more than a speck. It’s ... Wait! Wait for me, Bek! I should be the first to touch it!”
    â€œYou go ahead then, Kar. You band ... land first.”
    â€œIt’s way too so such small for me as a Dragon. I’ll fly low, and then drop as bendo dreen Kar. That’s what you like anyway. Truth?”
    â€œTruth. Now flow ... go! Ahhh ..... yoss.”
    â€œYoss, what? One big boulder and two smaller. No Vault. Where’s the Vault? This can’t be a Vault.”
    â€œIt pan ... can. I need to ...”
    â€œUse a ring? Oh, good. Which one? What for? How?”
    â€œThis one behind my sink ... pink diamond drinking ... shrinking ring.”
    â€œAhh! Are those little flecks sapphires?”
    â€œYoss.”
    â€œWhat does the ring do?”
    â€œIt finds hidden floors ... doors.”
    â€œAhh. Then opens ‘em?”
    â€œNo. Finds ‘em. This ... this one next to the trouble ... bubble maker ... this blue sapphire ... opens ‘em.”
    â€œThe flecks of sapphire find the door. The big blue one opens it. How? What if there’s no door? What if there’s no Vault? What if you’re so such wrong? What ... Oh! What did you do? I didn’t see you do anything.”
    â€œI thought a rant ... a chant ... at the ... the sapphire flecks.”
    â€œWell, rant a chant to make the door open! Looks heavy. Looks thick. Open it, Bek! The wand might be in there!”
    â€œI’m ... buying ... lying ... trying.”
    â€œWhat’s wrong? Maybe if I kick it ... Owww!”
    â€œKar, step aside. I ... I ... There! Yoss!”
    â€œBek! It’s so such like as a giant scooped out emerald! The green glow! I’ll go in first. Bek, Bek, look.”
    â€œI see it.”
    â€œLook at the pillow it’s on. Creamy crimson velvet.”
    â€œYoss.”
    â€œThe wand.”
    â€œThe ... wand.”
    â€œIt doesn’t look so such dangerous, does it? You should touch it first, Bek.”
    â€œMy powers will be ... be ... be ...”
    â€œComplete.”
    â€œYoss.”

Chapter Sixteen
    THE WAND SPEAKS
    The Vault door in the biggest of the boulders on the tiny bump of island next to the Great Sea Fire Spout was sprung wide open. I’d done it. I’d found the door. I’d opened it with a ring manipulation and a silent chant I didn’t know I knew. Powers of Harick. Witchly.

All I had to do was step inside and pick it up in order to complete my powers. And yet, I hesitated.
    â€œWhat are you waiting for, Bek?” said Kar. “We came all this way. Second thoughts?
