Crystal frowned. "She'd be in the forbidden mountains then."
"She ate the mountains." she whispered quietly. In one of the legends, after Baba Yaga had grown up, she grew to a massive size (she can change her size) and chased Prince Ivan. His friends made obstacles for her, a lake from two old women, a pile of trees from a woodchopper and a pile of mountains from a giant. She ate her way through the last two, but Prince Ivan managed to get to safety.

"Could I get one thing clear?" Winter asked. "Baba Yaga is a witch, right? What's her full story?"

Crystal nodded. "That may be needed I'm afraid. Sometimes the true version of the tales gets mixed up with each culture."

"B-Baba Yaga was born to the royal Russian family. The family wished for any heir that was not mute like their son, Ivan.. she had iron teeth. She grew to be massive, but she can change her size.. Ivan escaped to the Little Sister of the Suns palace..but she still wants to eat him. So she eats children who wander across, she ate her own daughter. Her own parents, too. She can eat a forest in minutes." Leto opened her eyes and stated in Russian, "She is not the witch the Western world speaks of."

"That's probably it, you were an orphan so you had to problem solve. Many people here need that skill. Also it was a prophecy." he said with a frown.

"A prophecy? What prophecy? What does it say?"

His frown deepened. *Im pretty sure it was...*
My fair queen,
I offer you a true warning.
The stories here will long be gone-
Unless warriors from afar are drawn
To the cries from the storybook old
Or else this world shall only be told.

"Where did it come from?" I ask, intrigued. "And it says warriors... Does that mean there are others like me?"
