September 1st

I expected shock or anger or even panic at my news. I should have known better. “Then we’ll just have to move fast,” said Tahu. “We need to get into the Codrex. So we hit the Makuta hard and hope some of us make it inside. This may be our only shot at this.”

I didn’t have time to ask what a Codrex was before we were in the air and in combat with the Makuta. Lewa and Gali combined their powers to call down a raging thunderstorm while I struck with my light powers. The Makuta started to give way, and that’s when I saw it through the mist — a great spherical structure, half-buried in the tip of a fallen stalactite, and looking like it had been here forever and was at the same time totally alien to this place. That, I realized, was a Codrex.
