I woke up with a lustrous headache and all the memories come back in my mind. Completly covered with leaf mud I returned home. “Mum, I am home, where are you?”, “I'm here, and where were you, I'm furious, this night there was a homicide and you didn't return at home, I was terrified. Don't do it anymore”. “Sorry mum, but last night I bumped into a monster, and I fell and I fainted”. “Ah,ah you have seen a monster? It is ridiculous, monsters don't exist ah, ah, ah”, “But I have seen them”, “ Ah ah ah, now go to your bedroom and don't go out until the police find the killer” , “No mum!! The killers are the monsters and I can help the police to catch the monsters ”, “ No, you can’t help the police because it is dangerous and this story is only in your head, now go or I won't let you exit from your room for the rest of your life”. “Uff, ok mum I will go to my room, but the monsters exist!” “Yes, yes as you like”.

To kill them I needed to talk to the sorcerer of the hill. I walked for one hour and when I arrived, he was sitting on a chair, “Mmmm, hi my name is Camille and I came here because I need your help, to kill the monsters that live in a forest. Can you help me?” “Hi, I’m the sorcerer of hill and Yes, I can help you, but don’t stand up, sit here in front of me”. “So you want to kill the monsters and you need my help, correct?” “Yes, it is correct”, “I have what you need; a magic sword”, “So I can kill the monster?” “No, with this you can cut the head of Medusa to petrify the monster, ok?”, “Oh, ok but where can I find the refuge of Medusa?”, “ Go to a cave under the level of the sea” “Ok I'll go and thanks for your help, bye bye” “Goodbye Camille and good luck for your missions”.
