Side Quest - a Camp NanoWrimo Story - Twenty-Seven: The Train

Twenty-Seven: The Train

“Am I really here?” Raizel muttered to the Diamond Raven.  It felt unlikely.  She had been trying for this for what seemed like months, even if it had only been days, and here they were, on the platform, buying two tickets for the train.
