Amber Spiral – Chapter 2: The Rainburrow
Underneath the Yang Tavern…
At first I’m relieved to be dropping through a hidden trapdoor into the Rainburrow, but then I see the state of Chamille’s ‘den’ and my stomach drops. Everywhere I look are crates and boxes of goods that I’m 99% certain that she shouldn’t have. I guess Karlof was right about how she’s been spending her time…
“You’re early!” a voice rings out from a dark corner, lit only by a bank of computer screens. Chamille slurps down the last dregs of a slushie and practically leaps over her chair to see me. “It’s been too long, Sky! You don’t have to make up a dream-quest just so you can see me.”
I chuckle nervously and try to hide my feelings about her current activities with light chit-chat and a rundown of my vision. I’ve barely finished describing the village when Chamille jumps back into her chair and starts typing away. Seconds later, she’s showing me a quaint little village that looks exactly like my vision.
“Here we go! Right at the bottom of the valley under Haunted Hill. At least six food bloggers say they have the best potstickers in the NINJAGO® world. Sounds like you’ve got competition, Sky – sure that’s not the real reason you wanna go there so badly?”
