I stood by the lake and took in the beautiful sight before me.

The sand was an almost blinding white, with beautiful, unnaturally clear water that gave off a bright shine. And behind it stood a elegant and regal looking white castle made of white and silver stones.

"The castle of diamonds." Cheshire said as he came up next to stand by me. I looked over at him from the corner of my eye. Cheshire looked down, his hat shadowing his eyes.

"And I'm sorry, about not telling you the kits left. I thought you gave them permission to go." I blinked in shock that he was apologizing. I felt me eyes soften and I pressed my muzzle to his shoulder.

"I forgive you Cheshire," I looked over at the kits. Diamond was looking off at the castle with a strangely familiar and mature expression. "What's with Diamond?" Cheshire looked over at her, his eyes widened.

"Pure, I'll tell you later. When everyone is settled." I nodded and looked at the others.

"We'll camp here for the night. The Queen of Heart's guards are to far behind to catch up to us anytime soon." They nodded and settled down for the night, Leanna taking the first watch.

Cheshire motioned for me to follow him with a swish of his tail. I looked back to the kits, seeing they were safe, before following him into the shadowed forest.
