Anna woke up back in her Crystal Ball Jail !

Giovanni was no where to be seen !

She found her things , just the way she had left them !

She didn’t cry!

She didn’t flinch !

She stood up and started to him and sway and chant !

Ommmmm

Ommmmm

Kah – bu – la – kab- ooo- lah

Ah- luca- mova- nova – day-wah

Rah – sham- gula- Ram – da

Ommmm

Ommmm

The words splintered the Crystal Ball

She just flicked it with her tail and it shattered around her!

Her wings protected her but some shards pierced her and she changed!

She threw back her head and roared!

The Drake of Annapurina found her and brought her home!

She was surprised … the Surround , was deep , dark plumage!

Giovanni , had only placed her deep within the bowels of the Forest surrounding Annapurina !

Lord Heston waited for her !

The Ancients hesitated when they saw her, you best go to him , her Mother said, he will want to taste you and test you now!

Do you understand?

Anna nodded, in the affirmative!

We must ready you for him , come!

Her Mother and Grandmother , took her down a long steep tunnel !

There underground , it stood ,

lost from sight for centuries! Hidden with the depth of its powers !

Magnificent in its carving and splendour was the Throne , the Throne of Zeus, himself !

It stood solitary in the middle of the Cave – a single sun tunnel allowing light to hit it and shine !

There was a small desk , a large oasis , three palm trees and a replica of Heston’s Bedchamber !

No gothic windows , but the Cave was open to the deep , dark Forest hidden with the lower base levels of Annapurina !

A small stool , was by the base of the throne . It looked more like a small bed rather than a footstool , and there was a chain, with a neck cuff and strap!

Anna was locked into place and waited for him to arrive !

Anna’s mother locked her to the footstool , whispered, to her , her Grandmother, cried and said , how proud they were, No one had ever got this far, only her!

They both hugged her and asked her if she surrendered to the heart of the mountain and her heritage ?

YES, she said!

Do you remember the story , I used to tell you , Anna ?

She nodded and her eyes widened in remembering!

Must I ?

You must – they will all come to you and you must do as has been foretold !

She nodded!

You have it don’t you ?

I do !

Ready yourself !

They will come !

They left her chained to the footstool at the base of the throne of Zeus , himself !
