Grandma Juliet warmed the broth she prepared a few moments ago and poured it into a wooden bowl. Grandpa Kevins guzzled it directly from the bowl. He was extremely hungry to eat with a spoon.

"Check to see if she's awake, Juli" He mumbled, referring to the red-haired girl he came with. Grandma rubbed sesame oil on her body and also rolled the blankets over, so she could get warm.
Even the weather was enough to warm her up.

Grandma Juliet peeped and saw no sign of movement. She lay on the bed the exact position she was left.

"Did you not check where the red light came from?" She asked grandpa. Grandpa shook his head.
413Please respect copyright.PENANAF35FMi02of
"I'm afraid we both have to assume it came from her..."
413Please respect copyright.PENANAUr4Em61DbJ
"Her? How so?" Grandma asked, confused. The little girl was found alone, comatose, so how could the light come from her?
413Please respect copyright.PENANAeAFtviwlCc
"That's all I can say, Juli—it was the light that led me to her. Very strange but true..."
413Please respect copyright.PENANAlDpqXKEdjx
The girl didn't move a finger when grandma Juliet put her under thick covers, properly clothed her heavily and intentionally kept her under the hot sun for a while. That was where the whole neighborhood learned about the little girl.

"Throw her away!" Elise, one of the fisherman's daughter called out. They all said what their offensive minds felt and aggressively went on their way. When an old friend of grandma Juliet saw this, she said softly into her ears,
413Please respect copyright.PENANAHgYoWuzQGW
"take her to old mother Hummonga. She'll solve the case immediately,"
413Please respect copyright.PENANAjmjnSRFJnK
Grandma asked where mother Hummonga resided. "she undoubtedly lives in a small cave at Bayman's Zone. I'll give you a map that leads there"
413Please respect copyright.PENANA3hG1xVwnkK
The old couple was unsure if it was a clever idea to go to Bayman's Zone because winter was always there. You could get heat only from the stove or the hot pot or the lighted branches from the hearth.

"But we cannot intentionally let her die, Juli" grandpa said under his short brush-like moustache.
413Please respect copyright.PENANAruYE7uhqH7
"But it's dangerous and too far from here," she replied thoughtfully.
413Please respect copyright.PENANALmLvCA6VOd
But after a while, she made up her mind though with much difficulty to take the dear girl to Bayman's Zone which was very far away from where they were.

"We don't have a child. If we save her life, she'll by heart be ours," grandpa Kevins subtly reminded her. Grandma Juliet asked her friend if she had anybody to help them reach their intended destination so she introduced her to a young soldier. Dirty, middle-aged but a little different from other soldiers, he collected the little they had but promised faithfully to set them on the carriage or whatever means of transportation that rode to Bayman's zone the next morning.

The dear girl looked lame and her lips were parched. You could assume she was dead unless you ran a hand underneath her shapely nose.
413Please respect copyright.PENANAmGrhROjtxp
Early at glorious sunrise, grandma, and grandpa followed him to a tall tree. A wagon appeared so they embarked on Bayman's zone.
413Please respect copyright.PENANAYEeTrWi6ji
The journey was a long one. They reached at mild night and slept under a crooked tree. The next morning, they carefully traced the cave with the valuable help of the map the old woman gave Grandma Juliet.

The cave was dark but about 13 tallow candles lit the shallow place up.

A haggard-looking old dame was properly seated on a stool, staring gloomily at a cracked pot that contained a green mixture. When the ragged soldier opened the curtain, she swiftly closed the pot and gave a harsh glare towards the entrance. He introduced the old duo and described their problem.
"keep her and leave. Do not return till tomorrow night," She said in a dictatorial tone. They heeded to what they were declared to do. They slept at a small inn with the help of the soldier and preceded to mother Hummonga's cave the next night.
