'The more I think about it, Callia, said Calladon, 'the surer I am that this must be the real Abra. Could anything be more delightful than this thick air, that you can see as well as breathe; and this floor, all soft and sticky not hard and dry like the other; and these beautiful walls, covered with that curious green stuff; and then the toadstools and the weeds?
'Perhaps it is a ruby, or a black diamond. Such things are very precious. 'We had better take what we can get, then, said Callia; 'we shall not find anything like this in Abra of that I am sure. How foolish you were, Calladon, never to have thought of coming in here before. It is ten times better than the other place!
At the same moment Callia awoke; and seeing Calladon, she sprang up with a cry of joy and kissed him. She was as lovely as the day. 'The mirror tells you the truth now as always, Calladon, said the Master's loving voice for it was he. And he laid his hand upon him, and instantly the deformed shell in which Calladon was clothed fell from him, and he was more beautiful than ever.
And that sword we are safe from that! 'I think, upon the whole, we are better off where we are; and I am glad we came, said Callia. 'It is more mysterious here, and I like mystery. If you can see everything around you merely by opening your eyes, it is stupid. Here we have the excitement of going about and not knowing what we may find. 'It is strange it should be so dark! remarked Calladon.
'But don't you think it is colder than it was yesterday? 'I was sure it was; and if you feel it too, it must be so. But are you quite certain that I look as well and handsome as when you first saw me? because, in the mirror, I seemed to be pale and dull. 'The mirror must be wrong, then, said Callia; 'for I can see you with my own eyes, and of course I should know if there were any difference.
