  Natasha led us inside the palace. A man walked up to us. He was wearing a black nightgown. His face was pasty white with bright green eyes that laid behind crooked glasses.

  “Kodyack, who is that?” he said.

  “Pedro, this is Skyrid. He’s a new cithian.” Kodyack said

  “So, he just had his malfunction recently?” Pedro said

  “Yes.” Kodyack said.

  “Then, I need both of you to follow me.” Pedro said.

  “What about me?” Natasha said.

  “You can stay behind and protect the castle.” Pedro said.

  Pedro led us down a long hallway. On each side of the hall were pedestals that had orbs carved into them. Pedro opened a door that was at the end of the hallway. We followed him inside.
