The queen nodded. "It began to change him...Warp his mind. He soon saw everyone as an enemy...Even me." She said, fighting back tears. "It took many of us to force him underground...And many losses."

"Wait, underground? You mean he's under our feet right now?" Gina said.

"Somewhere yes. There are a number of tunnels and caves under the island. If not for the sturdiness of the ground we stand on he might have devoured the island already."

"There are some days I just wish I could help him." she said. "Maybe there is a way to help." Gina said. "What do you mean?" Bob asked. "Just a theory but...if touching the coin cursed him, maybe taking the coin away will undo his curse." Gina said.

"Surely that would only transfer the curse." The queen said. "If that were true then how did the figure bring it without being cursed?" Gina asked. "Well...The coin was wrapped in paper..." The queen said. "The same paper the riddle is on then?" Bob asked.

"Why...yes." she said. "Then the coins curse only activates if a person is touching it directly. If we use something to hold the coin, we might get it away from your lost love and cure him." Gina said.

"That might work...If you can get close enough." The queen said.

"We've dealt with stuff like this before. Take us to the tunnel entrance." Gina said.

Nodding the queen led them through the jungle. "The nearest entrance is by Milky Lake."

"Got it." Bob said. "Oh...one more thing." Gina said. "Think you could put some honey aside...just in case a couple people we know get too indulgent on the island?"

"I can try but we've had trouble storing some lately." The queen said.

"Just one jar is all we need." Bob said getting one out.

"Alright. Try not to lose it." She said, holding her hand over the jar. As it filled up Gina noticed the queen looking a little weakened.

"Are you okay?" Gina asked. "Apologies. Its been getting harder to produce honey lately." the queen said.

"Isn't there a way you replenish the honey in your body?" Bob asked. "There was a spring I bathed in, but a bit after Minda visited the spring dried up."
