[color:"#a0a0ff"]THE PILLAR'S GIFT IN SOMEWHERE
Polgara, if I ever find a way to get out of here - what are you and the others going to do?"
"We've become the Crystal Keepers, Kiya - we're going to stay here. It's a nice world, really - though I know you're not happy. We have everything we need here and if time comes for us to return to our old world - I think, I'm going to miss this tranquility. Oh, don't forget your crystal, Dear - and this time I think it will go off." Polgara went over to the pillar and plucked off the amulet.
The high pitching sound flooded the air again, both - the pillar and the crystal shard - burst into a blinding cascade of rainbow colours - silence. I opened my eyes and saw the amulet before me, dangling from Polgara's hand. I placed it in my palm and saw - the shard had changed: Entrapped in its clear blue centre were a shell (or a scale)- a tiny claw - one long silver glittering hair - a feather - a teardrop - a small round stone with a tattoo - a golden shiny nugget. They seemed to move, waver and dance sligthly, changing sides.
Polgara bent over:
"Hmm, that hair could be a unicorn one - and the teardrop is maybe a token of Mutabar - but the others? Well, Kiya, you'll have to find this out by yourself - but I'm sure, when the right time has come, you'll know what it means and what to do." She smiled at me confidently.
"KIYAAAAAAA, POLGARAAAAAAAA, work's waiting - where are yooohhoouuuu?"
We smiled at each other, though mine was a bit sour - and we followed ZHE BOSS'S voice.
NERO! Time's running out - I have to go, why this delay?
