Pel reports seeing a path through the Voolcon's wall on Devil's Island. It was apparently an exit only, but this suggests that there is also an entrance somewhere--possibly hidden much more carefully.

Amberdrake has emerged from the library after being stuck there for a very long time. I saw her in town today while I was loitering.

Today I attempted to take a shortcut back to town from the Mirror by way of the cloud, only to discover that one portal was on the cloud and the other was on Kizmia's Island. I helped move the portal from the cloud down on the the Savannah, so that I could return to town.

Kani fell during the process of moving the portal as a result of using it too quickly. I attempted to drag him to safety, but both of my chains broke, one after the other, and the metal disappeared. I strongly suspect that this is a result of trying to chain someone out from under a portal, as I've never lost the metal from a chain before. However, Kani insisted that it was a coincidence. At any rate, I will now have to find replacement chains or metal.

TreeBeard and Super Chicken fought a duel in town this morning. These were TreeBeard's last words.
