Chapter One ONE
YOU LOOK CONFUSED, MR. FORKLE said, and the lilt of his tone made Sophie wonder if his lips were twitching with a smilebut she couldnt pull her eyes away from the round, gilded door hed brought her to, tucked into the side of a rolling, grassy hill.

The place reminded her of a hobbit hole. But Sophie had been living in the Lost Cities long enough to know better than to voice that observation. All it would earn her was laughter. Or perhaps some impossible-to-believe story about how Mr. Forkle had once brought J. R. R. Tolkien there and provided him with the inspiration.

I thought you were taking me to your office, she told him, shifting her gaze toward the windblown meadow and searching the swaying wildflowers for clues as to where they were.

Mr. Forkle twisted the cogs one by one, entering some sort of complicated combination. You said we needed to talk. Isnt that why you requested this meeting?

It is, but... Sophies words trailed off as the last cog clicked into place, making the ground rumble and the golden door sink into a slit that appeared in the damp earth.
