"I see you have got the girl", Ophelia said in greeting to her guests. "Yes, perhaps now, we can persuade you to solve your riddle", Brian said. "Well then, come on in", Ophelia said as she motioned for them to come into her dark hurt. Then when she saw the apprehension on Aurora's face, she said "Don't be afraid, Ethan's little one, no harm will come to you here". Aurora wondered how the woman knew her father and if truly she was safe here but as she was still bound and gagged; she had no choice but to believe the old woman.
Ophelia started a fire as soon as they got into the hut. Once the fire was kindled, Ophelia turned to Brian and said "untie the little one, that's no way to treat a lady and I thought you would know that". Brian and Acacius quickly worked on the girl's bonds and soon Aurora was standing in a corner rubbing at her bruised wrists and cursing the men inwardly.
