Nyra was in the Pellatorium chamber, looking at the afternoon sky. She was so devastated. The fact that, Grimble betrayed the Pure Ones and letting those two owlets escape. And she kills him for it, with anger and frustration in her mind. But there is one noble trainee named Kludd, who was standing behind her and has actually chosen to join the Pure Ones, over his brother. Then Nyra spoke: "Grimble's death was unfortunate. But you..." She turned her head towards him and continued: "You have a chance to follow your brother, yet you didn't." Then she walks up to him and continued: "I'm starting to think, that you might actually deserve to stay." Nyra lifted up his chin and continued: "To be one of us."

Kludd: "Oh, I want that."

Nyra: "We offer power and purpose. What could you offer us? What can you offer me?"

Kludd did remember, what she said about, the Pure Ones needed more strong fliers. That they can find. And this maybe his chance to prove himself to her and he knows the right owl to join. Then he said: "I…I have a sister."

Nyra: "Go on."

Kludd: "She's young, but she's got spirit. And grow into a strong Tyto."

Nyra: "Perhaps you can bring her to me. Here the young ones are our future."

Rapunzel: "Okay, this gone too far this time. First these Pure Ones kidnapping owlets and use them as slavery. Then they took Grimble's family away. And now..." As the tears roll down her face, she continued: "Nyra and her soldiers kill him. He may never see his family again." Rapunzel started crying. Realizing, that these Pure Ones are cruel and unfeeling. And don't even care about others.

Soren: "Rapunzel, he sacrifices himself for us to escape. So that we can warn the Guardians about the Pure Ones. If he didn't then we would have been capture by Nyra and have the worse punishment. So you see that what he wants. I wish I could save him, but..." Soren went into a silence.

Rapunzel: "I know, I understand. But, what if his daughter finds out about him. That he was kill by Nyra. She'll be so heartbroken."

Soren: "Yes, she would be." Soren lowers his head feeling the guilty of not saving Grimble from the Pure Ones. But then, he snapped out of it, when he sees Rapunzel crying in sorrow. He didn't want Rapunzel to feel sad about the old boreal owl's death. And so, the young barn owl wrapped his wings around her, and tries to figure out a way to cheer her up. Then Soren remember the one holiday that wasn't so joyful and it would give the right example of Grimble's death. The young barn owl looked at Rapunzel and said: "Tell you what, how about we can give Grimble, the scroonsa wikken."

Rapunzel wipe her tears and said: "Scroonsa wikken, what's that?"

Soren: "A scroonsa wikken is where we come together and to lighten the candles, for the lost love ones who have been lost in battle, old ages and other cause of death."

Rapunzel: "*Sniffs* that would be nice to give him a scroonsa wikken. Grimble would've like that."

Soren: "Rapunzel, would like to honor him?"

Rapunzel nodded.

Soren: "All right then, wait here I'll go get the candles." He took off and gets the candles. Then the young barn owl came back with the candles and in his talon was a hot coal. Soren told her about what the hot coal can do, he lights the candles, and gives it to Rapunzel. And then, they took a moment of silence to honor Grimble. After that, Soren have a few words to say about Grimble and said: "Grimble, let your scroomsaw take place, rest in peace and thank you for letting us free from slavery." He turned his head towards Rapunzel, and then says: "Rapunzel, do you have anything else you would like to say about Grimble?"

Rapunzel nodded and said: "Yes, I have." She clears her throat, and continued: "Grimble, even though I don't know you that much and I thought you were one of the Pure Ones. But when you said that you hated them, after what they done to your life and your love ones. You sacrifice yourself to save the owlets. And for that, Grimble, you are so brave and a great warrior... *Sniff* I'm sorry, Soren." She cried again, and the tears were rolling on her face.

Soren: "It's okay to cry, Rapunzel." He uses his wing to wipe her tears.

Rapunzel: "All right, I feel better now, thank you for showing me about the scroonsa wikken, what does it do for honoring someone who is a warrior like, Grimble."

Soren: "You're welcome. All right let's continue the story."
