”Ariana, Ariadna go check it too. We have done some little changes since you left” Vita explained.

”Sure” the ladies replied and went in, leaving the stunned children outside.

As soon as they got in, they were so bewildered that they could not speak. ”You like?” A voice asked from behind them as she moved forward, it was Vita.

”How can it... ”

”Be!” Ariadna finished Ariana's sentence as they turned to look at their friends.

By now everyone had entered through the door and took in the scenery.

”I don't understand, how did you get this place to be this big?” Ariadna asked her friends still having her perplexed and confused look on.

”It's like a mini town!” Ariana couldn't help but say.

”A small but grandiose village if you ask me” Catherine added.

”True, we tried saving most fighters that survived the battle and some citizens” Vita chipped in as she smiled at her friends.

”How did you expand this place so much? When we were here, it was just that duplex there” she pointed at the big duplex in front of them.

”True Ariana. With magic, we expanded the dimension here and did a coverage in the sky, so whatever magic is being used, those outside this forest or around here won't notice it” Livia explained a smile on her face.

”Also we could build more houses, giving us a grand small village. Some of your people are here Isabel, more than those you met outside” Phoebe said placing a hand reassuringly on Isabel's shoulder.

She had a worried expression as she gazed at the small village, but put up a smile at Phoebe's words.

”Thanks Lady Phoebe.”

”Call me Aunt Phoebe. It's Aunt Phoebe to you three” she corrected Isabel.

”Okay Aunt Phoebs” Isabel and Catherine chorused.

”My, my, these kids catch on so well. I love the feel, Aunt Phoebs” she used her right hand to hold her chin in a thoughtful manner and they all laughed at her funny look.

”Come on darlings, let's take you for a tour” Vita winked at th and led the way.
