"Please drop your weapons before entering the stream, for the house of the goddess is a peaceful place." The voice said.
Omifunke and Adedayo dropped their weapons and entered the stream, the followed the voice to the mouth of the mountain where the water flowed from. The water was very cold, but it was soothing in a weird way that both the priestess and the prince were reluctant to get out of the water.
"Please follow me," the voice said.
Omifunke was not surprised that she could not see the messenger, she had heard great tales about the invisible messenger of the goddess and she knew it would be unwise to offend the messenger by asking questions. She gave the prince a look that meant he should obey quietly.
They went through the waterfall, but surprisingly they were not wet. The mountain cave was designed just like the shrine, but it was more beautiful and grand.
They kept on walking, they could no longer hear the voice, but they could feel its presence, and knew where to go. Finally, they got to a large room, its entrance was covered with a curtain made of water, that was not transparent.
"The prince can go no further." The voice said.
"Why?" The prince asked, before Omifunke could stop him.
