6 hours later Lily saw volcanoes and could feel that the air was extremely hot, and she felt a hot heat wave. They flew past the volcanoes and suddenly saw floating volcanoes in the air while there were also a lot on the ground. Lava flowed from the floating volcanoes down to those on the ground.
Lily thought she had prepared but it still surprised her.
They landed on pebbles, and she saw that the ground was red and bent down and touched it with her right hand. It felt warm and reminded her of the warm sand when she had met the worm in the capital.
"How do we get around here?" she asked looking around because they were now territory, and she knew there were always rules.
“With earth. Like this." Eco explained, flapping his wings and suddenly the red earth began to float in the air, forming a large red disk.
He stood on it and looked at Lily and said, "There's enough room here."
They all stood on the counter and flew forward. After two minutes they saw that there were still volcanoes and lava all over the place and Lily wondered how long they would have to fly before they saw the sylphs.
Suddenly the disk stopped at a large lake of live bubbling lava, and they looked down. There were suddenly a lot of swoosh sounds and in front of them little red figures appeared that looked like little people. They had faces, arms, legs, wings and wore clothes.
"These are sylphs." William explained.
The sylphs flew around them and over to Lily and one landed on her right palm. It looked like a woman covered in lava and her eyes were black and she was wearing a black dress. Her hair was red and in flames and she wore gold earrings. Her wings looked like lava with flames.
" Greetings. I am the spirit queen here.” she said, bowing adorably to Lily.
"Hi, my name is Lily" Lily introduced and smiled at her.
There was a female sylph that had landed on William's palm, and he looked at her with great interest. There were also some that had landed on Celestia's head, and she looked at one in her left palm.
Her cheeks blushed and she said, “It’s forbidden for humans to come here.” and looked at Lily, whom she now admired even more.
"They are beautiful." William said, his cheeks also blushing as he admired the sylph in his hand.
"I heard you have a lost scroll." Lily said.
The sylph queen nodded and replied, "That is correct but my sister has it now so it can be better protected."
Ugh, Lily had just met Urug who had a brother and now this sylph had a sister.
"Shall I steal something for you?" she asked.
The sylph queen giggled and replied, “No. My sister’s not evil. She’s a spirit sylph so her home is sacred, so no one has access to that place except a god and us sylphs.”
She took out a map and gave it to Lily and they said their goodbyes and flew on towards the forest area where her sister lived.
Luckily it was only a 2-hour flight, but it would be evening in a few hours, so they had to find a place to camp.
After a few minutes they saw a huge, lush forest with tall trees, and it looked like the forest was endless in front of them because the trees continued as far as the eye could see.

" Uhm, it's a sacred place so how do we even get in there?" Lily asked worriedly.
"Why do you think the sylph queen let us pass?" Eco asked.
Lily wasn't stupid and answered, "You."
Eco chuckled and said, “Actually it was you.”
They flew towards the trees and saw that houses and suspension bridges had been built all over and it was clear that they lived in the trees. They saw people in white clothes walking around and Lily suddenly wondered if they were sylphs or humans.
There was suddenly a huge lawn where white horses with wings were walking around and Lily looked at Pegasus who was sitting behind her and said, "Go to them." who nodded and flew down to them.
They landed by the horses but when Lily wanted to study them more, they suddenly heard a woman behind them say, "That's an interesting horse you have there."
They turned and saw a tall and slender woman with pale skin, long white hair that had beautiful forms. She had bare toes and was wearing a long green low-cut dress that went to her ankles. She had a green wreath around her hair that looked like leaves and her eyes were jet black, which Lily noticed right away. Behind her stood 2 women who also wore green dresses, but they had long brown hair and blue eyes.
They bowed to her, and Lily said, "Greetings. "
The woman smiled and said, “Usually we call winged horses spirit beasts that only come from my world. Yours is not from here.”
Lily couldn't lie to herself and explained, "I made him myself and his name is Pegasus."
The woman walked over to her and said, "Come let's go for a walk while your friends are taken care of."
Lily placed the hatchling in William's arms and left with the sylph queen. They went to the horses and when Lily was very close to one, she noticed that its body sprinkled with some white dust and was reminded of moon flowers.
“Wow. What is it?" she asked.
“There is something I have to show you.” said the sylph queen and they went on.
After some time, they stood in front of a huge field that had white flowers that Lily was sure were moon flowers. Inside the center stood a large white statue of a person she could guess was a woman. She knew that you couldn't step on the flowers because they were souls and are seen as something sacred. She took out the trident and flew towards the statue with the sylph queen. When she came to the statue, she saw that there was no face, but it was blank, but the form was a woman and she was wearing a long dress, long hair and a wreath of flowers in her hair.
"Who is it? Why is there no face?” she asked curiously because it looked very creepy.
"Our spirit beasts are born from spirit flow when we worship this statue." replied the sylph queen.
Suddenly something important dawned on Lily and she asked, “Is that the Spirit Mother?”
“She has many names. Mother of Spirit. Spirit Mother. The Spirit Mother. Mother. Mother of Creation and so on.” Explained the sylph queen.
Lily was confused because she thought the almighty was the creator of all worlds because that's what Light had told her. She had also seen a statue of the spirit mother in the temple who she first thought was a Hollywood star.
“I’ve seen a statue in my world that was of the Spirit Mother but there was a face.” she explained.
The sylph queen laughed out loud and said, "No one has seen her in reality so no one knows her real face and it’s not confirmed that she’s a woman either, but we all wish she is."
"Then who was that woman?" Lily asked, confused.
“A fake person who basks in attention. There are false gods everywhere.” replied the sylph queen.
Lily already had a bad impression of that statue and was it possible that it had something to do with the other statue that had called her for help. She had to go back and check it when she got home. It seemed that they had both been worshipped since there were statues of both of them but that the other had been forgotten over time.
She nodded and said, “Now it all makes sense. That statue looked like someone who was smug.”
The sylph queen took out a white scroll and handed it to her, saying, “Here. You came for this.”
Lily thanked but felt bad that she couldn't give anything in return but suddenly saw a stream to the right of them and flew there immediately where the sylph queen followed curiously. They landed by the stream and Lily stuck the tip of the trident into the water and suddenly a lot of drops started flying all over the stream and several seconds later they took shape into white horses with wings, and some had an alicorn.
The sylph queen's eyes widened in surprise and was completely captivated, saying, “Wow. You really do not disappoint.”
Lily turned to face her, and all the horses had gathered behind her making her look like a mother of horses.
“I can't take that scroll without giving something in return.” she said, giving her a beautiful smile.
The sylph queen's cheeks blushed and shyly said, “Uhm. Let's get back to your friends.” and they began to fly back with all the countless horses that Lily had created.
Lily looked at the horses and hadn't counted how many she had created but had just thought a lot when she made them.
Uhm, had she created too many?
Suddenly she became embarrassed and asked, "Are there too many?"
The sylph queen shook her head and replied, "There can never be too many."
