Down a Deep Well???

7/16/2025

0 Comments

 
Picture
As Aralt was dumping out the Wysp's that he had trapped in a bottle, Dree and Drat were wondering how to get a bucket clean... 
"I think we need to find a new bucket," said Drat after they had watched Aralt wash his feet in it.  "I wouldn't want to drink from it now."  Dree wrinkled his nose and agreed with his friend. 
Setting the bucket down on the ground, Dree looked away from Drat to the Wishing Well. ​ "We need to know about this Nyte Shade's Heart and if the Wishing Well can help us find it.  If Dragon's need it to keep our magic pure, then we need to know where it is.  It seems to be the only way to fix all of these mis-enchantments," Dree said.  "I have had several long talks with the Wishing Well but the Nyte Shades and this heart never were brought up.  I don't know if I have to specifically ask about them and even then if the Well will give us a truthful answer." 
Shrugging his shoulders, Drat just looked at his friend and finally said, "I don't know either how to get the Well to tell us.  I especially don't think you can trick it into saying something it doesn't want to reveal.  The real problem probably will be how to make our questions all rhyme for the proper Wishing Well magic."  Even with the seriousness of what they were doing, this comment made Dree break out laughing.  When he realized Drat wasn't amused, the Dragon after catching his breath, told him a little secret.  "The Wishing Well doesn't require a wish to rhyme.  
Picture
He likes knock-knock jokes and jingles. Sometimes when someone makes a wish, the rhymes help him think up new jingles.

​
Of all the secrets that Drat knew as the head of the Troll Kings secret police, this was something new.  "I must let King Dulbbe know about this," he thought as he watched the Dragon approach the Wishing Well.  "Wishing Well.  I have come to ask a favor.  Are you home?" asked Dree.
"Hello Dree.  Of course I am home.  Where else would I be?" answered the Well.  "I only asked to be 'well' mannered," answered the Dragon remembering the Wishing Well's sense of humor.  "Got me on that one," answered the Well.  "Water you waiting for, ask your favor."  Groaning to himself, Drat now realized where Dree got some of his puns from... 
"I am searching for a way to help the other Dragons who have returned.  Their magic is causing chaos and I was told that the Heart of the Nyte Shade could help heal this problem.  Can you tell me where it is?" Dree asked the Wishing Well.
Dree did not know how long the Wishing Well had been waiting for this question to be asked.  The heart was what had given the Well meaning and the Old Wishing Well had longed desired for the time when the Dragons drank from its water again.  Finally the Well answered, "Drai’ochtluan (using Dree's formal name), long have I waited for one such as you to ask this question.  Please lower the bucket into my water and you will find what you are seeking."
Picture
Not thinking about what the bucket had just been used for by Aralt, Dree and Drat quickly lowered the bucket into the Wishing Well and shortly they were told by the Well to raise it again.  When they lifted the bucket from the Well, the Nyte Shade's heart and the cage that held it were now in it.   
"Long ago this was hidden under the waterfall that flowed here by the First Dragon.  Long have I watched over it.  The magical love that flows from it makes the Dragons 'more' each time they come in contact with it.  I would see the Dragons become whole again!" said the Wishing Well.​
After thanking the Well and telling it that if it was possible they would return the Nyte Shade's heart as it had done a great job keeping it safe, Dree and Drat started back to the Baron's Mansion.  It was during that walk that Dree started to formulate his plan on how to help both the Dragons and the mis-enchanted.

Passporte' knew  he needed to update his journal as there has been a lot of research and information he needed to jot down - especially regarding the Dragons.
With the Dragons returning that was reason enough to make a new journal entry, but with all the new developments such as the agents from SPICE, this new drink called 'Ambrosia', and the discovery of the World of Whispers, this was juicy gossip indeed!
When first opening his book of course it fell open to his favorite characters, the Brownies, that he has run across in his many travels.

No one could cook cookies like Granny Flare (nor keep a home clean).
Then Passporte' continued to turn the pages of his journal until he reached the section he had created about what he was learning about Dragons.

It was this last entry that he now placed in his book that gave him pause.
As he finished writing the last few words, he muttered to himself, "Yes, I need to do a lot more research regarding this Moon Dragon.  I am hearing the words whispered in the winds too often, especially in regard to this Aralt character also.  I think I will need to share a tankard of Tee-Hee Brew with him and see what he has to say.  As a Herald to Dragons, he might say something interesting.  Maybe this time I can out scoop Snoop and he will have to publish something I write on the cover of the Bellwether."

Missing...

It was Drat who first realized that Dree had been gone far too long.  "I wonder what is keeping him," he thought.  Soon he slipped out of the meeting and went down to the caves to check on Dree.  Shortly he returned to the tea room and slid up to King Dulbbe and whispered in his ear.
​"Sire, Dree is gone.  I went to his cave and he is not there.  I checked the area and finally found tracks in one of the side caves leading to the area of The Wishing Well."
It only took a second before Dulbbe calculated (being a bookkeeper before becoming the Troll King) what Dree may be up to and decided to send his chief minion out to find the missing Dragon.  "I will let the others know, but do what you can to bring him back.  We don't want Siate' or Aralt to find him first," he told Drat.
Again Drat silently slipped out of the tea room as Dulbbe started to make his announcement about Dree's absence.  Soon he was out of the Mansion and traveling towards The Wishing Well.  "I should get there first with this shortcut," Drat thought to himself.  "What is that Dragon up to?"
As Drat was following one trail to The Wishing Well and Dree was on another, Aralt just happened to be in the area sitting on a log and resting his sore feet.  "I have done more walking since Siate' has returned than I have in a hundred years," grumbled the Herald. ​ "When this is over, the Dragons will come to me from now on."  Rubbing his feet, he noticed a well in the distance and decided that he needed a drink.  "And maybe there will be a bucket there I can soak my feet in," he hoped.
Picture
As Aralt walked to the well, it was Drat who saw him first.  The rat was very good at not being seen when he did not want to be and quickly hid behind one of the giant mushrooms that grew in the area.  As he watched Aralt draw up a bucket of water from the well and then take off his shoes and put his feet into it, Drat turned slightly green.  "I must remember not to drink from that bucket ever again," he grumbled.  "Augh!"
A Dragon's sense of smell is better than any other animal and Dree was a Dragon.  He too could smell something that was not pleasant as he was nearing The Wishing Well and decided to approach with caution.  As Aralt was facing the other direction, the Herald did not see the Dragon and was unaware that he was now hiding behind the bushes behind him.
Picture
"That stupid Dragon better show up soon," Aralt muttered loud enough for both his listeners to hear.  "I'm getting tired of all this looking around and walking."  Taking his feet out of the bucket, Aralt slipped his shoes back on, leaving the bucket sitting on the ground, and started back on his mission to find the Dragon or at least someone for questioning that he could take back to Siate'.  
​When he could no longer be seen, Dree left his hiding place and walked up to The Wishing Well.  Picking up the bucket, he then proceeded to slosh the remaining water around in it and then poured it out on the grass.  As he started to lower the bucket back into the well, he heard a voice behind him.  "I don't know if you want to put that bucket back into the clean water of the well," said Drat.
Smiling to himself before turning around, Dree looked at his friend and asked, "What took you so long to get here?"

Pondering...

As he was walking back to his cave, Dree mumbled, "What am I missing?" as he pondered what the Oracle had said.  "To save us all?," he murmured to himself.  The meeting was still going on in the Baron's Mansion with the others, but Dree needed a few minutes to himself to think without the others around. 
He knew that somehow he would be the one having to make the final decisions about his kin, the Dragons.  "To save us all," he murmurs again. ​
As he continued thinking about what the Oracle had said, he almost opened the bag IT was carried in to ask more questions. "No.  I need to think this more on my own,"  he decided trying to wrap his Dragon brain about all that he had just learned.  "We must first keep Siate' and Aralt from discovering the Wishing Well's importance," Dree knew.  But there was something else in what the Oracle had said that made him uncomfortable.  Something that was hanging just out of reach as he still had not quite grasped it fully yet.  "It's tickling my brain so what am I missing?" he said out loud.
It was then he heard in his head a response.  "Master, are you asking me a question?" the Oracle asked him.  "How may I be of assistance?" A minute or two passed before Dree made his decision.  "Yes Oracle.  I need one more question to be answered.  You say I went to the Sacred Tree to protect the realms but you did not say why it was necessary.  What do you remember of that?"
Picture
After only a short delay, the Oracle telepathically responded.  "Master,  the Guardian of the Sacred Tree was perishing.  You went there to help defend the tree.  You must have been successful as we are all still here and you have returned."  Dree thought about the response for a while.  "Thank you.  I will not be asking any more questions for now.  Please disregard me unless I addresses you directly," Dree told the Oracle.  "Very good Master," was IT's reply. 
Dree now knew what had eluded him before.  "To save us all," he muttered again as he started down the caves and back to the Mansion.  "Since the Moon Dragon did not return, I must assume that something happened to him. 
Picture
"He didn't fail because otherwise the Oracle wouldn't have said that we are all still here.  But what happened to him that didn't allow him to return?  I must talk to the others, but I think I know where we need to start," Dree decided.  "The problem is I don't know what we need to do about Siate' and Aralt, especially if they unite the other Dragons against us."  Arriving at the door connecting the caves to the Baron's Mansion, Dree stopped.
​"I need to do something else first," he told himself as he turned around and headed for the cave exit that would take him closest to the Wishing Well.

The Questions...

4/9/2025

As Dree once again started to open the small pouch that the Oracle was in, most of the others waited to see what the Oracle looked like.  King Dulbbe gasped when the Oracle was placed on the table for this was his first time to actually see it.  He had only seen the Oracle before as an image displayed by the green orb in the Library of the Shadows' King when he was asking the orb about more information concerning the Dragon's return to the Realm of Wymsy.  Before he could say anything though, Dree started to ask it his first question. 
Dree knew that to the Oracle when he asked his questions he had to act as if he were Tun'Gul, it's creator and the only other Moon Dragon to have ever existed.  The Oracle still was insisting that there was only one Moon Dragon and since there could only be one, Dree must really be Tun'Gul.  "Greeting Oracle.  I would like to ask you some questions to confirm events before we were separated and to test your recollections," said Dree.  "As you have instructed, I have maintained the information.  Inquire," answered the Oracle.
"Why did the Dragon's leave this Realm?" was Dree's first question.  The Oracle spun on the table as it answered.  "The Dragons did not like the restrictions that were being placed on them by Villagers.  Their egg nests were being raided for the crystals created by the dragnets' hatchings.  The Wish Dragons especially did not like their wishes being regulated by the Wish Dragon Clan.  Since the Dragons are each independent and they do not have a ruler, they did not like being told what they could and could not do.  The most powerful Wish Dragon who was left after the Moon Dragon disappeared attempted to become Queen of all Dragons.  Your disappearance, Master Moon Dragon, was the final act that made the other Dragons seek a new home."
The answer regarding the Wish Dragon clan made the Dowager blush since she was one of the few remaining Dragon Clan members.  "How could the clan not know that their actions were a reason the Wish Dragons left the realm," thought the Dowager to herself.  "Now I understand there is even more dangers with Siate' returning," she mumbled under her breath.  "Is Siante' the most powerful Wish Dragon the Oracle mentioned?  What power would come to her as Queen of the Dragons?" Griselda pondered.
Picture
​As the Dowager was thinking on how some of the puzzle pieces were starting to fit together, it was Dree's next question and the Oracle's answer that took her completely by surprise!
"When the Dragon's left, did they take the Nyte Shade's heart in the golden cage?" asked Dree.  The Oracle paused for a second before answering.  "As you hid the heart and cage in the cavern behind the waterfall, that is where it has stayed since your departure, Oh Wise One," replied the Oracle.  Before anyone else could say a word, Dree quickly asked his next question.  "Do you know where that cage could be found now?"
Picture
Again the Oracle paused, did the calculations, and then started spinning again with the estimate based on what it had seen in the present.  "There is a high probability that it is near the place now called The Wishing Well that was built by the Shadows' King.  The well is now the only source of water that is needed by the Dragons to keep their magic pure."
Everyone in the room was stunned.  No one would have ever expected The Wishing Well to be a center of power in the Realm.  Dree was the first to recover his wits and decided to ask one more question before returning the Oracle to the pouch he carried it in. 
"Why did I leave you?" the Dragon asked.  The Oracle did not delay this time in answering.  "To save us all," was it's response.  "As the only Moon Dragon, you went to the sacred tree to protect the Realms and did not return until now.  I am glad you have found me and we are reunited again," said the Oracle.

Why not here???

​"I was thinking about something you said," Nutmegg told the Dowager Griselda.  "You mentioned that you did not have mis-enchantments happening when the Dragons were here before.  That made me start thinking, why?  It happens everywhere else we have been."  "That's a good point," added in Allspice.  "What is here that keeps the wishes contained?"
Everyone was busy thinking about the question when the Baron finally answered.  "Maybe because this is where the Dragon's started from?" he asked. ​
"We have discovered that a Nyte Shade, one of Queen Ffion's ancestors, gave her magic to a dragon and that is how Dragon's became magical."  Now it was Nutmegg and Allspice's turn to be surprised as this was not known to them.  "That might explain why Siate' came back and why Aralt was here," Nutmegg murmured to Allspice.  
As the questions started flying around the room, Queen Ffion raised her hand and softly said, " Let me share with you the story about the Nyte Shade and the dragon."  When she finished it was Nutmegg who asked, "Does anyone know where the small red stone in the cage is now?"  No one could answer his question for it had never been seen by anyone in the room. 
Picture
"I am glad that you all are here," Griselda realized.  "For it must mean something.  We certainly would have never gone down this path without what Allspice and Nutmegg had told us.  Apparently there is something in this realm that affects the Dragon's magic making it more stable.  What that something may be is still an assumption.  But if the stone in the cage was not taken by the Dragon's when they left, then that could be a good reason why some of their mis-enchantments happen elsewhere as anything else.  What we have to do is figure a way to find out more about the mis-enchantment issue.  It might just be the key to both why the Dragons have returned and how to stop Aralt and Siate' from whatever their plan could be."
Picture
It was at this time that Fiddlefaddle entered the room with another unexpected guest.  It was Lil' Boots!  "Madam, Sir, I am sorry to interrupt, but I have someone who you may need to see.  He says his name is Lil' Boots and he needs to talk to two of your other guests, Nutmegg and Allspice."  Lil' Boots rushed right over to the two SPIs and quickly told them what he had overheard at the cave between Aralt and Siate'.
When he was finished, Allspice turned to the rest of the group and started to relay  about Lil' Boots overhearing a conversation and how he rushed over to warn everyone about what Aralt was told to do.  Finding out that Aralt was planning on abducting someone and take them back to Siate' for questioning did not make the others very happy.
"Thank you for the warning Lil' Boots and welcome back from the World of Whispers," King Dulbbe told him.  "When this situation is over with the Dragons, we will do everything we can to help get you back to your home."
Lil' Boots was so surprised that as he stood there blushing all he could say was "Ahhh, shucks.  Twasn't nothing.  Glad to help."
As the Baron was giving Fiddlefaddle instructions to notify certain people in the Village of Wymsy about Aralt's mission so they could be ready for him, it was Dree, the Moon Dragon, who addressed the others.  "We now have another question to ask the Oracle," said Dree.  "We had better get started."

Meeting and Tea...

Arnie was beginning to think that maybe she was in over her head.  "Oh, for the old days of just being a Borrower," thought Arnie.  With all of the talk about how to stop the Dragons from whatever their purpose was in returning to the Realm of Wymsy and what was Aralt's goals was making her almost wish for those days again.  "Be quiet and try not to be noticed," she  thought to herself as she stood in the tea room at the Baron's Mansion.  
​"As a Borrower, I would never had been invited into such a grand place like this," she knew.  "As a Finder, the others actually want me around."  It was a good feeling but with that feeling came a responsibility.  Now others relied on her and asked her opinions and thoughts.  "That is better and I like this feeling of being needed," she finally decided as her attention returned to what the others were talking about.
"... and then Nutmegg told us that he would try to bring his leader, named Allspice, here to meet with you," Dree finished telling the Dowager and Baron.  "That would be very good," Griselda answered.  "Hopefully King Dulbbe and Queen Ffion will arrive before they do."  Nodding his head, the Baron agreed with his mother.  "Maybe this will give us another advantage over the Dragons," he said.  "With Dree's Oracle and the help from SPICE, we might just be able to outmaneuver Siate' and her herald."   
As they waited, tea and cookies were served while the Dowager sat with Arnie telling her what she needed Arnie to find.  "I have things that have been missing for a long time, and anything you can help me find would be greatly appreciated.  Since the Goodie sisters gave you their cottage, you won't be so far away and can visit when you want," the Dowager was telling her. 
Picture
​ The others were looking over the Oracle and discussing what questions to ask it and what more could they learn from the Moon Dragon who created it.  "I feel that we don't have much time before Siate' and Aralt do whatever they are planning," Dree told the others, "So I think we need to decide what questions to ask the Oracle otherwise we might end wasting a lot of time.  As much as I would like to know my kin's past, we need to focus on what is happening now."  The others agreed and as they continued their discussion, Fiddlefaddle entered the tea room with King Dulbbe and Queen Ffion.  Shortly they were brought up to date on what was found in the Gooblin King's treasures and the meeting with Nutmegg.  As Fiddlefaddle was refreshing the tea, the other guests arrived and were shown into the tea room.
Picture
"Hello.  I am Nutmegg," said the Hobb-goblyn as Dree and Drat nodded their heads in greeting.  "This is my boss, Allspice." 

​It was the Dowager who started the conversation.  "Greetings Nutmegg and Allspice.  Welcome to our home.  Dree tells us that you are SPIs whose goal is to return those who suffer from a Wish Dragon's mis-enchantment." 
​"I am not sure I understand what might cause mis-enchantments as we did not have that problem when the Wish Dragon's were here before.  We just had to watch how  literal they could be was our problem with the Wish Dragons," the Dowager said.  "If someone asked for a gold mine, they might find themselves in the middle of a mountain somewhere surrounded by gold but not able to return with it.  What is a mis-enchantment?" she asked.
"That is a good question, madam.  Let me see if I can explain," answered Allspice.  "With a mis-enchantment, a wish granted by the Wish Dragon may be successful but sometimes others in the area of where the wish was granted just up and disappear.  We just recently recovered one of these victims who described the place he was transported to as the World of Whispers.  Apparently it is a white glistening world that time does not hold.  As Lil' Boots was there for a long time and never had to sleep or eat.  Those trapped there could be heard but only as a whisper on the wind.  We don't know why there are mis-enchantments, but we have found a way to bring them back.  Sometimes when they return they are changed in some way but after visiting one of our Fae healers, they usually return to how they were before."
Picture
"And how do you bring the mis-enchanted back?" asked Drat.  Allspice and Nutmegg looked at each other and it was Allspice who decided to tell the others their secret.  "We provide the Dragons with Ambrosia.  They love the taste and when a Wish Dragon belches, we usually get someone back.  The only problem is that it takes a lot of Ambrosia to make it work and that takes time to brew."  
​After the silence that followed the explanation, it was Drat and Dree who started laughing first.  Soon the laughter was infectious and everyone was snickering.  "Imagine, a burping Dragon," laughed Drat.  "Now I know what to get you to drink the next time you start those bad knock, knock jokes," the rat said to Dree.
When the laughter was contained, Dree spoke.  "I think it is time to ask the Oracle our questions and now I think I know what to ask it," he said as he started to open the bag that held the magical trinket.

Broken Oracle???

1/15/2025

0 Comments

 
Picture
As Dree and his two friends continued their trek to the Baron's Mansion to report what they had discovered after meeting with Hir'aeth, the Gooblin King, the Oracle was pondering it's situation.

​"I have been returned to my Master," Oracle surmised.
"With that, I will now be able to serve him again."  Time was not something Oracle felt as the Oracle did not age nor had It become less powerful.  Time was only a tool for It to learn more to aid his Moon Dragon master.  "There is so much my Master does not know that I shall be able to tell him from during our time apart," realized Oracle.  "That must be why he was testing me."
Deciding that It's assumptions must be correct since Tun'Gul was the only Moon Dragon.  "For he did create me to be aware of challenges and tests in my purpose of gaining knowledge," as the Oracle thought about his Master.  The problem with Oracle's assumption was that no matter how much information It collected, It could not reason out that there might exist another Moon Dragon and how that Dragon could come to be...
​While Oracle waited for It's Master to ask another question, It decided to review the time before they had become separated just in case It was tested again.  "It was shortly after when the Dragons decided to leave the Realm and travel to other safer lands," It remembered.
Picture
"That is when Tun'Gul told me that if we were separated to remember all that had happened before and what happens afterward so that when he found me again, I would be able to tell him all."
The thought of why they had separated never once entered Oracle's mind for It did not have any emotions to feel the Dragon's lost connect.  Emotions were not something that the Moon Dragon had bestowed upon It.  Oracle was given pure logic and the ability to remember in detail events that It had observed from It's beginning to now.  Oracle could surmise the purpose of everything and could compute what events might lead to what outcomes, but could not read minds of any other than his Master (and only then when allowed).
The only conundrum with Oracle was that It was aware of a problem that It could not understand.  Maybe that was because It had been out of communication with It's Master for so long or maybe It was malfunctioning.  Oracle could not determine which...
The issue was that Oracle had felt SOMETHING when her Master was able to speak to her again... She had felt 'happy'.  "I know the meaning of happiness and the many words to describe this emotion.  But I was not made to feel emotions," Oracle pondered as she still had that feeling now being once again reunited with her Master.  This sensation of feeling lighter than air, which in itself was unique, as she had no body or nerves to feel with.  This felt more like it was in her mind or what poets had referred to as having a heart.

Silent Partner...

As the trio of Arnie, Dree and Drat, started their trek to the Baron's Mansion to let the others know what they had discovered, Dree was silently turning over and over in his mind what had happened since finding the trinket.  "Can you hear what I am thinking or only when I ask you a question?" thought the Dragon to himself. 
"I cannot hear your random thoughts Master unless you focus them towards me like you have just done.  But why do you ask these odd questions as you are the one who made me as I am?" the voice answered in the Dragon's head.  With this answer,  Dree almost stumbled over a tree root.  He realized that it was extremely difficult to have this conversation, walk on an uneven trail, and also keep an eye on his two friends ahead of him so they did not think he was "loony-tune" (as the 'Outies' would say) talking to himself.  Then the whisper of the smell of bakery ovens invaded his sensitive nose as he quickly formed a plan.  
"I can smell the Sugar Plum Bakery," he told Drat and Arnie as Drat lifted his nose into the air and took a sniff.  "I need to pluck some pine needles from my feet.  Why don't we take a short break.  Would you two be willing to go to the Sugar Plum Bakery and bring me back some delicious raspberry dinglesnarff tarts while I am removing theses needles?  Then when you get back we can continue on to the Mansion."   
Picture
"Sure Dree.  Take a seat," said Drat as he pointed to a large boulder, "and we will be back shortly with something to munch on."  Soon Arnie and Drat were down the trail and out of the Dragon's sight.  Quickly Dree opened the bag and looked inside.  "It looks like a large coin," thought Dree as he pulled it from the bag.
"Are you there?" asked Dree out loud to the trinket.  "I am," the voice replied in Dree's mind.  "I think we need to talk," started the Dragon.  "I did not make you and I do not know your name."
Picture
"That cannot be," answered the voice.  "If that were so, you and I would not be able to communicate.  You are Tun'Gul the Moon Dragon, my Master and my creator."
For several minutes Dree just sat and stared at the trinket before swallowing and asking what he thought was the most important question of the thousand bouncing around in his mind.  "Can you tell me more about your master, the Moon Dragon?" 
"Ah, a test," responded the trinket.  "As it has been so long since you have used me, you want to see if I still remember.  Very good.  You are Tun'Gul, the only Dragon to become a Moon Dragon.  You conquered the Ogers (relatives to what the 'Outies' call Ogres who are just as large and smelly as their cousins) when others could not.  You are the discoverer of the portals between realms and have created objects that can see through time."  After a short pause, the voice said one more thing and then stopped.  "You are the Dragon Supreme." 
Working hard not to direct his thoughts towards the trinket, Dree made a decision as he heard his friends returning.  "Thank you," he told the trinket.  "As we have not talked in a long time and I feel like I am meeting an old friend after so many changes, I think it is best to reacquaint ourselves.  I am now known as Dree.  How would you like to be addressed?" 
"Welcome back Master Dree," the voice answered.  "I would like you to continue to call me Oracle."

Another Job First...

As the meeting with Drat, Arnie, Dree, and the Gooblin King finished up with the King just walking out of the throne room, there was a lot to be discussed. "Wow, I wasn't expecting that," said Arnie throwing her arms up in the air.​"Now Arnie and you too, Drat, knowing the Gooblin King's greatest desire that it has to be kept a secret," said Dree. 
​"After all, a secret is no longer a secret if everyone knows about it," Dree reminded his friends.  "And each of us should be allowed our personal secrets when they hurt no others."
​Arnie did not have a problem with this as she kept many secrets herself, especially as a 'Borrower' of somebody else's stuff.  Drat, on the other hand, being the chief minion for the Troll King, had a few misgivings about keeping secrets from his boss.  "Think of this way," Dree had told him, "Once we help the Gooblin King obtain his secret desire, then it won't be a secret anymore and you can tell King Dulbbe all about it."  Finally Drat agreed.
The real surprise about the secret to Dree was that even though Hir'aeth thought Dree knew all along what it was because of his one word answer, Dree was just as in the dark about what was the secret as his friends.  "If whatever is in the bag hadn't told me what to say, we would all probably be sitting in a deep dark dungeon by now," thought Dree.  He knew that it would have been a short stay since the Gooblin King didn't keep prisoners for very long.  But still sitting in any dank, dark, musty, spider covered cell would not have been fun no matter how long one was in it.  "I wonder what is in this bag?" Dree pondered while Arnie and Drat were heavily discussing any ideas they could come up with on how to fulfill Hir'aeth's desire.
"I am in the bag Master," came a voice that only Dree could hear.  "I have waited long for you to find me.  How may I serve you?"
The last comment surprised the Dragon.  Dree twisted and turned his head just to make sure that no one else had heard the voice.  "Okay... how can I talk to you so no one else can hear?" thought Dree and no sooner than he finished the question in his mind the voice answered.  "You just have to think it like you are and I will hear."  Now this really disturbed the young Dragon as he did not want someone else hearing all of his thoughts.

​"I understand," the voice replied in the Dragon's head.  "I will only hear the thoughts you send when you first speak my name or hold me close as you are doing so now."
"But I don't know your name," realized Dree.  "I don't even know what you are!"
"But Master, you are the one who made me...  How could you not know my name?" the voice asked sounding very confused.  It was then that the others interrupted Dree's silent conversation with the trinket in the bag.
"I was just telling Arnie that I explained to the Gooblin King about the current Dragon issue and their return to the Realm of Wymsy.  I am glad he agreed that his desire can wait until we have taken care of that situation.  Are you ready to go?" Drat asked Dree.  Dree glanced once more at the bag in his claw and decided this was not the best place to continue his 'private' conversation with the trinket.  "Yes, we need to tell the others what we have discovered."  When Hir'aeth returned to the throne room, Dree approached the king as Gooblin King sat on his throne and requested permission for them to depart.
Hir'aeth told them they may go but reminded the Dragon of his promise.  Dree replied, "I will come back to honor the favor to you as soon as the return of my kin can be sorted out."  Dipping his head in a bow to the King who returned the nod, Dree and his companions left the Gooblin King's throne room and were escorted out of the palace by the guards who had been told to wait outside of the room.  "I think we need to go to the Baron's Mansion first," Dree told the others as he still wondered what was the trinket and why did it keep calling him Master...
