After Hannah was tricked into finding a long lost tomb by Kanrik, an amazing adventure began.
The Plot
In a thieves' guild somewhere, an old Korbat tells Galem about a special gem in Terror Mountain called the Heart of the Mountain. Galem sends Valin on a special mission to retrieve the gem.
Meanwhile, Hannah was dancing around in a dojo. Kanrik found her, and asks Hannah to save his sister, who is dying. He tricks her into finding a lost tomb, which he says where the cure for his sister is found. His only clue were symbols, and Hannah said she has seen those symbols before-- it was a long time ago which was in the Lost Desert.
Kanrik gives Hannah some gems and they set off to the Lost Desert. Hannah asks Kanrik how his village got infected, and he told her that it was first just one or two people-- then it began to spread.

He started to fall off, so Hannah helped him up. She asks Kanrik about what his sister is like, and he tells her that Hannah reminds him of his sister-- she (Kanrik's sister) loved to sing and dance. Kanrik starts to worry about her, because his sister now barely has the energy to whisper. Hannah tells Kanrik not to worry, and that they'll find it.
Hannah says to Kanrik that the markings are very old, while walking in a tomb. Hannah examines the markings and found out it said "A demi-god of awesome power lays within."
Then Hannah was dodging arrows and escaping booby traps with ease. Hannah says she heard something behind her and Kanrik, but then she guesses it was nothing. Hannah steps on a secret button, therefore giving her the Mark of Ta-Kutep, a cursed mark. Hannah begins to fall off a cliff, and asks Kanrik to help her. Kanrik looks at her evilly. Then, she screamed while she did fall.
Hannah was lying on the ground, at the bottom of the cliff. Hannah stares at a wall with markings, and then touches the wall. She reaches for the gem. Then she put the Keystone around her neck.
She was wandering around a desert village and finds a doctor Cybunny in a stall. The doctor dresses Hannah's wound, and Hannah says it's just a burn. Then she thanks the doctor, and tells her that she must leave for Terror Mountain at once. The doctor gives her a snowsuit because of this.
Meanwhile, Valin was travelling around the snow, and then he knocks on Taelia's door. Taelia opens the door, and takes Valin inside. Taelia wraps up Valin in a robe, only to find out that Valin jumps out of the robe.
Then, Valin broke a vase and jumps on a dresser. He then throws Ice Dice and a snowball at Taelia, who tells him not to touch it. The snowball hit Taelia-- SPLATTT!
Taelia squints her eyes, while Valin holds up a wand. Valin then zaps Taelia with the wand, who is now a frozen block of ice. Valin jumps out of the window, and escapes.
Meanwhile, Hannah is in a snowstorm, and asks herself what is happening to her. Hannah falls in the snow, and then her Keystone necklace starts to glow, along with the Hearth of the Mountain.
A Bori finds Hannah's unconcious body in the snow, and drags her to a cave. He introduced himself as Armin, and proceeded to explain the history of the long lost Bori race.
He explained that long ago the Bori lived on the mountain, but a monster known as the Bringer of Night arrived and desired their treasure. In order to protect them, the Keeper of Time, leader of the Bori, used the magic of the Heart of the Mountain to freeze them in ice. Armin revealed he had woken from his sleep a few days earlier, and did not know where the rest of his people were.
The next morning, Kanrik was visited in his dreams by Masila, a cunning thief planning to betray Galem. She urged Kanrik to release the Bringer from the coffin he recovered, and in a dazed state, he complied. The Bringer proceeded to attack the Thieves Guild camp, creating soldiers made of ice. The power of the rising sun melted the ice army, and Galem was able to forge a deal with the Bringer. However, enraged at the creature's early release, Galem banished Kanrik from the Thieves Guild. The wandering thief soon came across Hannah and Armin, and during the ensuing fight, a secret passage further into the mountain was revealed. The three made an uneasy truce and continued deeper into the caves, hoping to wake the Bori and warn them of the Bringer.
|
Both parties reached the Bori's chamber at once, and Kanrik instructed Hannah and Armin to hide. Both the Bringer and Galem located the Heart of the Mountain at once, and the Bringer double crossed the thieves, summoning his ice soldiers once more. As the battle raged on, the Keeper of Time began to wake, and instructed Hannah to unite her pendant with the Heart. Kanrik challenged and bested Galem, while Hannah restored the Heart of the Mountain with her amulet. The magic of the Heart freed the remaining Bori, and they too joined the battle against the Thieves Guild. As Masila ran from the battle, the Bringer struck and smashed the Heart of the Mountain. The magic however froze him solid, and Armin took his chance to shatter the monster with a single pebble. Without their master, the ice army melted, and the remaining thieves elected to run. Hannah meanwhile collapsed from the power of the curse. She was immediately rushed to see Taelia, and the Keeper of Time freed the Faerie from the ice. Taelia succeeded in lifting the curse, though the mark remained on the Usul's skin.
With Galem gone, Kanrik assumed leadership of the Thieves Guild, while the Bori returned to Neopian life. Hannah meanwhile returned to telling stories of her adventures in Krawk Island taverns, all the while watched from the shadows by a vengeful Masila...
