During her travels, Queen Crystal finds her Grandmother Rose still alive in the cursed City of the West. She is offered the chance to discover the truth about her grandfather Orielle who had been eternally trapped within his sword. "Nothing is closer to the truth than the magic embedded within this stone." Grandma Rose "The stone came alive under my hand and the rust streaks within became bright red. They began swirling faster than I could follow, and the stone brightened, illuminating the room with an eerie red glow." |
