The unicorn was secretly amazed at the trusting nature of the girl. When he had opened the looking glass in her room, he had no idea that she would even discover it... but he needed her help, one of a pure heart, to save his companion from the evil of the Dragon King.

"Mother says that you learn people through you heart. If your heart tells you someone is ok, that you should help them, and you make my heart feel all warm, but it also feels nervous, like your special. Well, I guess you are, you are a unicorn. But I thought unicorns didn't exsist, I always wished they did, I had pictures all over my room, but I never would have imagined them being as amazing as you are." she rambled on and on, excitement overwhelming her.

[~echo~]

The unicorn whickered amusedly. "Look, over there in the trees- do you see that lake?"

[eternityflame]

Emilia nodded, "Yes, I see it," she said, "Is it magical too?"

[~echo~]

A large splash sounded and a mermaid jumped out of the water. "There are mermaids in that lake."

[eternityflame]

Emilia's eyes opened wide and she ducked down low on the unicorn, "Woah..." she breathed.

[~echo~]

"Emilia," the unicorn said softly, the last word turning up like a question. "I must ask you a favor."

[eternityflame]

"Ok, sure!" she said with a soft smile.

[~echo~]

"There is just one other unicorn in this land and he has been taken by... well, by a bad man," he said quietly.

[eternityflame]

The girl gasped and covered her mouth with her hand, "Oh no!" she exclaimed, "Is there anyway to help him??"

[~echo~]

The unicorn stopped walking and turned so that one eye could see her. "There is one way- you. The Dragon King cannot stand your innocence and that is the key to stopping him."

[eternityflame]

"Me...?" she asked innocently, her eyebrows high.

[~echo~]

The unicorn chuckled. "Yes, you."

[eternityflame]

"Oh... well, what... what do I do?" she asked.

[~echo~]

The unicorn looked off into the distance. "Your touch is fatal to the king... if only you touch him, he would be vanquished."

[eternityflame]

"Truly?" she asked him softly, in awe.

[~echo~]

"Yes, but... it's not so simple. We must get to him first."

[eternityflame]

"Well, where is she?" she asked simply.

[~echo~]

"He is on the other side of this country- a long, perilous journey. But if you go with me, you will be safe."

[eternityflame]

The little girl nodded her golden head and put a small hand on the unicorns neck, "I trust you." she said.
