said Prince Axton. "Thank you Prince," replied Helena accepting the fish from Axton. “No, Prince, no one will be able to enter this forest. It's like another dimension created by Selena, it can only be unlocked by Winky and Winter.

Looks like Calor's lost too many dogs to risk the main orchard. He'll push around the marsh, come at us where the ground's soft." Selena's stomach clenched. "How many?" Elric snorted.
