Fay, Tarn, Mira, and Bram meet in the stronghold hall. The mist swirls outside the stone doors. The room is quiet and calm. Fire light shines on the walls carved from mountain rock.
Fay looks at the empty stone pedestal in the centre. "Where is the Fire Stone?" she asks quietly. Tarn steps closer and gazes around the room. He feels worried but says nothing.
Mira checks the shelves and the small boxes near the wall. She shakes her head slowly and frowns. Bram stands still but his eyes follow the moving mist outside. "The Fire Stone is missing," he says softly.
Fay looks at her friends and takes a deep breath. "We must find the Fire Stone," she says calmly. The four wizards plan to search the stronghold. They want to keep the stronghold safe and strong.
Fay looks at the empty place on the stone pedestal. Her eyes are full of worry. "The Fire Stone is gone," she says softly. "Without it, our power will fade," Tarn adds with a frown. Mira steps closer and touches the cold air around her. Bram stands silent, his hands tight at his sides.
"The Fire Stone holds the power of flames," Fay explains. "It is our heart here at the mountain stronghold." She turns to the others. "Without it, we cannot do much magic." Tarn's face is sad and serious. "We must find it quickly, before it is lost forever."
Mira looks out towards the thick mist that covers the mountain. "The mist is thick outside," she says in a quiet voice. "It will be hard to see anything." Bram nods slowly, his eyes dark and steady. "But we cannot wait," he says. "The Fire Stone must be found.
Tarn steps outside the stronghold and feels the cold mist on his face. He looks around but the thick fog hides everything. His heart beats fast; he wants to find the Fire Stone for the group. The mountain is quiet and strange in the mist.
Tarn moves carefully over the rocky ground. He calls out, 'Fire Stone, I am here!',' but no answer comes. He uses his fire magic to send a small flame up. The flame burns bright but the mist stays heavy and white.
Tarn feels tired and a little scared. He wants to see the stone but the clouds cover all the mountain. He takes a deep breath and tries again to find the Fire Stone. But no matter where he looks, he cannot see the stone in the thick mist.
Mira stood tall on the rocky ground. She raised her hands to the sky and called the wind. The cold air began to move in circles around her. The thick mist started to thin and float away.
Tarn watched as the mountain got clearer. He felt hope grow inside him. Mira smiled and said, "The Fire Stone is near." The wind showed a high ledge up the mountain.
Mira flew up with light steps on the rocks. She moved fast and careful at the same time. There, on the ledge, the bright Fire Stone shone. She called Tarn to come and see the light.
Fay carefully took the Fire Stone in her hands. Its warm glow filled the room with a soft light. Tarn smiled, feeling the return of his strong power. Mira and Bram looked relieved and happy to be safe.
The mist had gone, and the mountain felt calm again. The stronghold was alive with new energy and hope. Fay said, "The Stone is back, and our magic is whole." Tarn nodded and said, "We can protect this place now."
Mira danced lightly, her eyes bright and joyful. Bram stood quietly, feeling peace in his heart. Together, they looked at the Fire Stone, shining bright. They knew their home was safe once more.
