Farewell to Purple Faces and Leprechauns

“Of course I can help your friend!”
This is what Dee the Healer has said to our friends, and that is exactly what she has done. Sir Gavin is no longer purple. Yay! Dee suggests that they stay for a few days, however, so he can recover. They agree to stay, but Carl and Marina must be on their way.
“Bye bye leprechaun buddies!” shouts Aurora as they fly off.
“Zbogom!” says the Croatian.
They are now out of sight, so our friends go up to their room where Sir G is resting in bed.
“Looks like we’ll be here for a few days, guys,” Abella says.
“What are we going to do?” asks Sir S.
“We could play truth or dare,” suggests Sir D.
“Uh, how about you give your Croatian friend a name, Sir Damien?” Quinn says. The Croatian smiles at Sir D.
“Bob sounds good to me,” Sir D replies. The Croatian man smiles wider.
“I’m bored,” says Quinn.
“I’m hungry,” says Aurora.
“We just got here!”
Then there is a knock on the door. Our friends don’t know it yet, but the person knocking is going to have a big impact on their adventure.
