"I have to get to the castle at the center of the Labyrinth. Do you know the way?" asked the young girl to the old gentleman who was wearing tattered robes and a strange bird hat on top of his head. He was sitting on a stone chair.
"So you want to get to the castle?" he repeated.
"How's that for brain power?" said the hat sarcastically.
"Be quiet!"
"Ah, nuts." muttered the bird. The young girl just sighed, while the dwarf who was accompanying her rolled his large cold eyes.
"So young woman," started the old man again, "the way forward is sometimes the way back."
The young girl was very confused by his words of wisdom, while the old man and his hat argued over being loud and quiet. Soon, he began to fall asleep, with him holding the collection plate out to them to pay for listening to his wisdom.
The girl tugged on a bunch of jewelry that was tied on to her pants. The dwarf began to shout:
"Don't you dare! Thems mine!"
The girl looked at him them back at the jewels, knowing that he was right. But what could she give to the man? The only thing she had worthy was the ring on her ring finger. But she couldn't spare that! It had so much meaning to her. Yet…
"Well, I guess I can spare this." She said with sadness in her voice, as she carefully removed the small ring. It was a light gold, with twisted roses making up the ring. She slowly dropped it into the box with the dwarf so stunned and shocked, then hurried away before she could cry in front of them.
Knowing she would never see her precious ring again.
