a. Finn is so excited to tell Amanda
everything that happened last night and about the moving platform in the castle
and the story about the stonecutter’s quill.
b. Wayne told them that their mission was
to find out why Quill was added to
the story of the stonecutter, which says that a stonecutter wished he was the
sun so he could be powerful, and then he wished he were a cloud so he could be
more powerful than the sun, and then he wished he were the wind so he could be
more powerful than the cloud, then he wished he could be a mountain, so he
could be more powerful than the wind, and then since he was a mountain he
realized there was nothing more powerful than him, but then he looked down, and
at his base…. He saw a stonecutter.
c. Wayne thinks the adding of the word “quill” to that story will have something
to do with stopping the Overtakers.
