“Take this passage, and you shall get right at the Castle Doors, this I guarantee.”

Their eyes shone with excitement. Mr. Rabbit responded:

“Oh my… that is wonderful! Assuming it is true, may the Graces bless you with longer years, my fellow!”

To witch Mr. Rato responded with grim amuse:

“Ha, I will pass the bless, thank you. Now, time has come for you to proceed. Begone, for soon I shall make the room again.”

“to whom?”

Mr. Rato did not respond, but he smiled. And that was all that Meryl needed to understand.

The group proceeded to the passage, but the Ratman had one last interruption:

“One more thing before you go.”

“What is it, my fellow?”

“The Thread. I would appreciate if you gave it to me.”
