My dear friends, unfortunately I have to tell you that I cannot help you save Arika. My school and I are in the Caribbean right now and I probably couldn't be with you in time. In addition, it would be incredibly difficult for me to find my school again afterwards. I hope that you can save Arika without me and wish you good luck! ~Callidus
In fact, neither of us knew how he could have helped us, apart from the fact that he might have been able to do some important calculations. A dolphin like him can hardly survive in fresh water unless he would turn into a freshwater dolphin. However, I hoped that we would see him again soon. We all went into the forest and collected some wood to make training equipment. When we all got back together in the clearing in the early evening, Flavia had just arrived with her horse Fluff. Alice brought Fluff to the stable and gave her food and drink. Anilec showed Flavia her room and let her store all her belongings. Then they came back and helped us build the training equipment. We built a few targets, hurdles and a smaller version of the main gate. We also built a small forge with wheels for Mario. He searched for different metals in the earth and forged different grids. One looked like the grid in the ceiling of the zoo, only slightly smaller, and another looked like the lattice gates that were in the hole in the zoo. Ophelia had told him exactly from which ores the main gate was and so he could forge his from the same material. Since it was already late, we all went to bed. The next morning, right after the hunt, we set everything up correctly. We placed the grid, which was supposed to represent the zoo roof, on a frame next to the small stream that ran out of the lake. When everything was set up, we woke up the others and made them breakfast. After breakfast we sent Medicus back to Scholar, with a message, our thanks and the plan. After that, Anilec showed who should do where and what.
