Sebastian took a deep breath. Maybe, maybe it wasn't true. He hoped it wasn't.
"It says, the oculus is real, and that curses can't be reversed…"
A pause.
"But we reversed your curse." Jylan said, confused. Sebastian crumpled up the piece of paper. He didn't need such a useless piece of paper. Jylan seemed to notice and tapped his knuckles with a finger. Sebastian looked up. "We might need it later. Don't throw it away just yet." Sebastian sighed and put the piece of paper into his pocket, although it was still crumpled.
Then, Jylan suddenly turned around. As if he had heard something. Sebastian looked behind him curiously.
"I heard something, My Prince. Like cogs or machinery."
"You did?" Sebastian asked, confused. Jylan walked over to a wall and carefully planned one ear against it. Listening. After about 30 seconds, he tapped the wall.
"There's definitely something here."
"There is?" Sebastian asked, even more confused. He walked over and also put his ear next to the wall. There was, indeed, something there - a dull click of machinery. Sebastian could hear it too. Tick, Tick, Tick.
"What do you think it is?" Jylan asked, and Sebastian shrugged.
"I Don't know. I suppose we'll find out eventually."
