Goblins Hollow....

          It had been days since the empress had vanished. By now, most of the town knew she'd not been around. Soon a lot of her friends and clients at the castle door. It had been do busy that Sage had become overwhelmed and flustered running back and forth. Ludwig gave him a few breaks, taking over answering the door.

        The gargoyle stayed by the door, seeing people in and out most of that afternoon. He could see why the hob-goblin had gotten frustrated. There was another knick on the door. He opened it. There stood Trinity.

    " Ludwig. I heard the empress is gone. What the heck went on?" She asked, concerned for the empress.

    " In short, she slipped through a mud portal and landed on earth." Je explained.

   "What?"

   " Just come in here." He said moving to the side, letting her in to the hall. He stood there telling her every detail he knew.

   " The poor thing. There's no magick. I don't know how she'll handle this one. " She replied.

   "All we have is hope." Ludwig responded.
