Chapter Seven

Desdemona, Ambrosia, and Victor suddenly appeared on the side of a large mountain. A huge blast of cold wind hit Desdemona. She discovered they had arrived on Mount Pyraxia in the middle of a blizzard. If they hadn’t drunk the immortality potion, they would all freeze to death out in the cold.

Victor recognized the terrain as the place Willow had transported herself to when she was learning the transporter spell. When he didn’t see Willow in the house after she recited the transporter spell, he decided to see if she had transported herself to the Pyraxia Library. He had read her mother’s note and knew it was probably a place Willow wanted to go to. He decided to go there and look for her.

“This is the correct mountain, according to the professor’s notes here, and according to the note Willow’s mother had,” Victor screamed above the wind. He was holding a notebook that he had stolen from a university archaeology professor named Edward Smith, who was the person who had recited the spell to bring magic back to Ethermoor. Victor had stolen many, many books from him to create his library in his castle on Enchantica.

In his notebook was written, “Open the door to the vault of Mount Pyraxia by sticking your hands in the snow and saying the words to the spell to open it, something which is only known by Knowledge Sorcerers. Only a person with fairy blood can open the doors to the Pyraxia Library and the Pyraxia Vault.” Then he flipped to the back page of the notebook, where he had copied the directions to the library that Willow’s mother had been given.

“The word to melt the snow off the doors to the vault and the library is Florida” was written there.

Victor had gathered a wad of hair from Willow’s brush over the last couple of months, which he hoped would help him trick the magic into thinking he was a sorcerer. According to the professor’s notes, the snow-covered vault door was about a mile from the stone towers that marked the entrance to the library.

“Now, according to the notes, the library entrance should be there, and the vault entrance should be somewhere over here,” Victor said as he pointed at two very tall stone pillars, then pointed to the pile of snow right in front of them. He opened the bag he brought with him and pulled out a small pouch. He opened the pouch and pulled a big clump of Willow’s hair out. “That’s disgusting! What are you doing?” Ambrosia asked, sounding as if she was trying not to gag.

Victor laughed so hard at the comment that he doubled over. “This is Willow’s hair. I got it out of her brush. If the spell senses Willow’s magic, then it will work for us.”

He put the clump of hair in the snow. “Florida!” Suddenly, the snow melted away, revealing a metal door. “Please?” Victor asked.

The door swung open, and they all walked inside. “Now, be careful.
