Underground Once More

"No, it's just a couple of interconnected caves that are completely separate from the main system," Anselm said. "It might seem paradoxical, but it is actually the best place to hide from the dragon. His vision is said to be very keen and his hearing very acute, but he cannot see or hear through solid rock. And even if he should spot the entrance through the trees, which is unlikely, and suspect that someone might be hiding inside, the entrance is too small for him to go inside and check."

The three went through the entrance into the outer of the two caves. Enough light filtered in to make artificial illumination unnecessary.

1. The cave was empty. [But the inner cave might not be.]
2. Several people were there already.
3. Contrary to what Fred had gathered from what Anselm had told him, the Princess was there. Had she come there when she had been told not to?
