Nicky finds The Friendly Troll Book of Secrets
Terry checked his the magical pocket watch as they got closer to the very large waterfall but instead of pointing at the waterfall, it was pointing slightly to the left. As the got very close, it was in fact pointing towards a big rock covered in a thick carpet of green moss.
Nicky said "I can see something big and spotty behind the rock" and went behind for a better view. There she found an object, wrapped in a large but damp spotty tablecloth, with a damp leather belt fastened round it. Nicky called the others, "come and see what I have found".
Terry got very excited by the size and shape of object wrapped in a large but damp spotty tablecloth. Norman and Weed lifted the object onto the rock, where Geewhizz and Neenee unfastened and removed the damp leather belt. Then Terry with his hands trembling, carefully unwrapped the damp spotty tablecloth from around the object.
What he reveled was a big book, with the words, The Friendly Troll Book of Secrets written across the front. Terry shouted "yes" and punched is fist into the air and the others all cheered loudly but also looked very relieved. Nicky had not seen The Friendly Troll Book of Secrets before and touched it, just to see if any of the magic would rub off onto her.
While she was doing this, Nick saw two trolls appear from behind the waterfall for a moment but then disappear back behind it again. "Did you see that" she said "two trolls came out from the waterfall, saw us here and went back in" None of the others had but decided they should go and investigate.
Geewhizz, Neenee and Dork stayed outside to guard the The Friendly Troll Book of Secrets, they did not want to have to go looking for it all over again. On Terry's magical pocket watch the lucky pointer was now red and flicking between GO and OPEN, so the rest of them wasted no time at all and entered the lodging behind the waterfall without any invitation.
