Douglas Dale looked at his cousin, startled, even in the midst of his excitement, by the strange tone of Reginald's voice.
"A soul is guided to a cave that leads deep down in the earth, and there, between two gigantic trees, stands Taliakoo, a giant, who tends the eternal fires. Taliakoo inquires of the newcomer what he has to say for himself, and to the surprise of the soul, something within it answers.
