After a small walk, they found a Big Door (yet another one).

Meryl the Mole, who walked a little further, speaked loud.

“hey, pals, this is the tower path! we found it!”

Max and Mr. Rabbit walked together. At some point, the rabbit gently touched his shoulder, and they stopped for a moment.

He whispered, his voice barely audible to Max’s ears:

“Max… we’ve come a long way. And I’m sure there is no one in my entire life I love the most than Meryl and you, my boy. You are my friend. You are… my son.”

Max didn’t respond. Mr. Rabbit was about to continue, but was interrupted by another coughing spell.

“COF! COF! COF! URRRGH!”

It was getting worse.

“Mr. Rabbit, are you fine??”

“S-sorry, boy. Now, as I was saying…”
