(ok)

Sandy glared at her. "What happened??"

(I gtg to bed now…..goodnight)

Brianna sighed. "AGAIN. It's a long story. Follow me." She turned and went farther into the cave, which was actually a tunnel.

(Ok night)

"Wow, okay." Sandy breathed under his breath and followed her.

Brianna finally stopped at the end of the tunnel and pushed aside some vines, revealing the magical alcove behind it.

Sandy looked at the alcove then to her, back and forth, thinking he was having a fever dream or something. "The heck?"

Brianna shook her head as she started in. The alcove certainly wasn't something you'd see everyday. The alcove was about the size of three or four football fields, and the ceiling went up about half a mile and was covered in bioluminescent moss. There was a waterfall at one end of the alcove, and the crystal clear water was sparkling and dancing as it rushed to the river below. The large trees had thick trunks, rich dark bark, and beautiful dark green leaves, with flowers that ranged with colors from sunny yellows, royal purples, popping oranges, peaceful blues, and lovely pinks. The flowers filled the air with sweet and refreshing perfumes that brought such a peaceful and magical vibe to the alcove. The lush grass that covered the ground was laced with intricate rock paths that led to the trunks of trees, the river, the pond at the end of the river, and all the other locations of the alcove.
The best part about the alcove was all the people that were cheerily running around. The only strange thing was the appearance of the people. There were Gnomes, short creatures with rock like skin and green hair, Fairies, fifteen inch creatures with intricate wings and pointed ears, Dwarves, which were slightly larger than Gnomes and had tanned skin and white hair, and many other creatures that would take Brianna all day to take in and describe.

Sandy's jaw dropped. This is it. I'm dying. The ultimate fever dream.
"Wha– wha– whaow…" He looked like he wanted to say more, but just couldn't.

Brianna shrugged. "You get used to it." Suddenly an old gnome ran up to Brianna. "Oh, thank goodness child! We've been waiting–hold on just er moment, where's Avery? And who is he?" He asked, pointing at Sandy.
"Long story Alistair, explain later. Sandy's my friend. Where's Lillith?"
"In the Library. Follow me." Alistair ambled down the path to one of the central trees in the alcove, Brianna following closely behind.

"Wha–" He was staring at the gnome with a look of someone looking at their newborn child. "Tsw?" He followed his friend blankly, staring around.

Brianna took a small moment to snicker at her friend before regaining her stoic composure as they followed Alistair. When they got closer to the tree, they could see a definite outline of a detailed door in the wood. When Alistair opened the door and motioned for the two to come inside, they could see that the interior of the tree was a large and rustic library, with soft, almost orange light illuminating the room.

The tall and ornate bookshelves really gave the room the overall feeling of peaceful rustic. The room was littered with comfy overstuffed armchairs and strong but simple tables. There was a table with food and drinks by the front desk, where a small fairy with graying black hair and a purple dress was flitting around nervously and frantically searching through books.

Another fairy with short brown hair and brown pants and an orange shirt was pulling books off shelves and handing them to a dark skinned guy wearing a brown outfit who was putting them on a table beside a girl with fiery red hair and white pants and a white tunic. Sitting beside her was an elf with blond hair and a blue outfit, and he and the girl were flipping through books, occasionally writing something down before tossing the books onto the ever-growing pile of books beside the table.

Sandy looked around the large shelves first, trying to find something that he recognized (and going off of intelligence), but didn't find anything. His mouth was still hanging open as he looked up and down the library, stumbling along stupidly.

The girl with the red hair stood up when she saw Brianna, giant smile on her face. "Bri!!" She ran over and hugged her friend. Brianna giggled, hugging her back. "Hey Amythest." The others quickly greeted Brianna with hugs, then Brianna turned to Sandy. "Sandy, I want to introduce you to my friends. That's Amythest," She said as she pointed to her, "Faye," She pointed to the fairy with the brown hair, "Nathan," She pointed to the dark skinned guy, "Asher," She pointed to the blond haired guy, "And lastly, Lillith." She said as she pointed to the young librarian. "And Alistair, of course."

Sandy didn't register any of these names. "WHAT?" He blurted out loudly, feeling it was the most accurate word to blurt out in a confusion such as this.

Faye giggled. "He's taking it worse than you and your sister did." She stated. Brianna nodded.
"Well……….I kind of just dragged him into here with no explanation or anything sooo………" Asher sighed, laughing lightly.
"Wow. just wow Bri."

Sandy stared Faye, not denying the fact she was pretty but looked quite weird.

Faye landed all eight inches(sorry I forgot she's eight inches not fifteen) of her on Brianna's shoulder. "So, I assume you're here because of the crisis?"
"You mean because I couldn't find the Midnight Roses and freaked out because I knew that it had something to do with here and the fact that you'd need me? 'Cause if so, then yes."

Sandy started, staring at the girls as if they were six-headed monsters. "What…?" He asked weakly again, not expecting an answer.

Asher laughed. "The kid looks like he's seen a Redwolf. Wait–has he?" Asher asked.
"Almost." Brianna answered. "What's up with that? I thought they all disappeared when we destroyed Nathan's mom."
Nathan nodded. "Well, you see…….um…it's a complicated story. But apparently I have a brother who brought the Redwolves back and is trying to find the HeartStone." Brianna winced. "This is bad."
"You're telling us." Lillith interjected. "You haven't seen the full extent of the destruction they've caused yet."

Sandy didn't expect an answer. Instead, he contented himself by staring at a woman who walked in with a few books in her arms. Her ears were pointy and her skin was tan.

Alistair looked over at the woman who had walked in "(insert whatever name you have for her)! Hello dear, how are you today?" He asked warmly, making Brianna remember why they had nicknamed Alistair the 'Alcove Grandpa'.

The elf girl smiled at him. "Hello, Alistair. I'm returning these. Daddy doesn't like these types of books." She gave an annoyed sort of sigh and put them down on the desk.

Lillith flied over to the girl and quickly flipped through the books. "You must be new to Lotus Alcove then." She said as she continued looking through the books.

She sighed. "Yes, I am. If you haven't met me, my name's Aerin. Where's your gardening section?"

Lillith pointed towards the section. "Over there."

"Thank you." She started to walk over, but gave the pair of humans a second glance. "Hey," She started pointing at Brianna. "Are you a human?" She sounded breathless and amazed. Sandy looked quietly surly and annoyed. I'm a human, too.
