"No Nem! No Nem!" King Avner shouted at the top of his voice. "You called us?" The white fox with nine tails appeared mystically in front of him. She was standing on a flat rock and licking herself languidly. 'Yes!" he replied excitedly. "I'd like you to meet Master Ammad." "You mean, Muhammad? Hello, Muhammad!" They spoke as one. Nine voices blended together musically. "Hello!" Master Ammad was surprised they knew him but he did not ask how. "Can you bring us to Daphne?" "Again?" "Please, we'd like to help them find Princess Augusta's parents," King Avner continued pleading his request. The white fox posed sleepily on the flat rock. "Why would you like to help the witch?" "Because Daphne has promised to do so." "Why did Daphne do that?" Only the nine tails stood in attention.
