Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Lilly did not know if these were any good, but her daddy had said they had been used to fix a hole in the heavens!

She’d just take them with her first!

Lilly moved at the speed of lightning, terrified that someone else might come along and cause her to miss out on anything.

Within ten minutes, she had packed up the entire underground city into her spirit jar.

Had she been powerful enough, she would have been able to take everything away with just a wave of her hands… She still had to run a little.

“Daddy!” Sweat beaded at Lilly’s forehead, but her eyes were shining. “What else is there? Can I take this temple too? Can I take that big square over there too?”

She was talking about the base of the scepter.

Those were the only two things left.

Lilly did not know what everything else was.

But since the graves themselves were made of precious stone, the plants would surely be of value as well. She would take them too, thank you very much!

Blake caught her little hand. “Wait, let’s see if there was a message left behind…”

Lilly frowned. “A message?”

Blake said vaguely, “Oh, it’s from an old friend of mine. He might have been here before us; I was just thinking of seeing if he left a message of sorts for us.”

Lilly nodded in understanding. “What a nice man!”

He had been here before but had not taken any of these treasures at all!

Blake understood what his daughter was implying and huffed. “Yes… that’s right, he left all of this behind just for you!”
