As they entered the caves they saw lights that shone through the gaps on the sealing, giving enough light even deeper into them. The sight was so ethereal that he fell into a daze for a moment. Lady Williams poked him to wake him up as she already knew his expression. She smiling shook her head as she saw his face and sighed. " My dear, we have rest of our lives to research this place. Let us do this step by step. But I have to say indeed, this cave is beautiful. We could make some houses here as an emergency retreat, just in case. And we could stash emergency food and money here. What do you think?" She looked around and breathed the air deeply.

She was amazed that cave was so airy and dry even if there were deep inside the hill. Not many people knew about this place. It could be their hiding spot in case of a war or attack. And it was big enough to handle a big town, not only a few villagers. Her eyes darted around as she realized that the light fell trough gaps on sealing but was actually transferred trough cave as it fell on certain stones that gave off the light further into the caves. If they could find more of these stones, maybe... She turned to her husband with shiny eyes and understood her intentions with a nod of his head and smile on his face. " I had the same idea. This truly is the best place for my research and for the last retreat. Let's try out if we could use those stones and produce plants inside. If that is possible, we might be set for life and could hide here in case of emergency. "

The villagers were stunned by the idea as such a thing never even cross their minds. Who would even think of to plant stuff in caves if they had open fields outside? They turned around the cave and sighed. If nothing else, they could at least try. If it doesn't work at least they tried, right?Weeks passed as he searched every corner of the cave. On end, he found one cave with sunstones as they called them. Lord Williams positioned them around the cave so that it gave enough light to the main cave. He chooses to start building when the winter comes, as at the moment the fields outside were producing and every hand was important.

" Next few weeks I will help the villagers in the field. You could make appropriate plans where we could put houses and where fields. I am sure that is better than you going to fields." He looked at his wife with a smile. She was good not only in cooking. The plans she made and arrangements on their travels saved them a bunch of troubles that they could have. She always knew where is the best place to place the camp. One day they even were saved from the big flood as she put their camp on hills, even tho he was complaining that it was too far from the site he wanted to research. But one day, sudden rain filled the dry river bed with huge amounts of water and as they escaped to their camp, they could see the devastation it made on their way down. Since then, he let her choose the best spots and make plans, and he never regretted it.


She nodded and took their son to the caves. There was always some of the children nearby that helped her with smaller activities. She called a boy and a girl from their first neighbors to come with her. She needed them to take care of her son as long she made plans. She let him on a big blanket in mid of sunlight to play with the other two children while she walked around and touched the floor, looked at the corners, and even dug in one corner of the main cave. She then sat down near them and looked up and saw the small light entry on the sealing. She looked at the sunstones put on floor haphazardly and shook her head. " He really has no plan... Sigh... This winter will be quite busy." She patted children's head as she laid down on the warm ground and closed her eyes. Suddenly she opened it brightly. Warm ground?!

Once they were in the region of volcanic activities and searched for a rare plant that was famous for her healing proportion. The ground in the cave was warm as well, but unfortunately, they had to leave the place as the volcano became active again. After a few years, they came back and realized that cave was still there untouched by a volcano, as it seems that the stones in a cave protected it from breaking when the hell got loose. Lord Williams collected some of the stones and wrote a full report about that case. She took children out the cave, half worried, half hopeful and went back home. She saw Lord Williams helping in one of the fields and walked quickly towards him. " My dear, I think we need to talk, now. We hit it big this time. And I am not sure are these good or bad news."

He saw her worried expression and stopped with the fieldwork. He excused himself not seeing the relief the villagers had on their faces as he left. " Finally he is gone. Let's do something about this. If he continues 'helping' us we might never finish with our fields. He really is not made to be a farmer. Poor plants got killed by him. We need to find him other things to be concerned about. What do you all think?" Everyone nodded. They were grateful for his thought to help them, but he really had no feelings while handling plants. So many plants suffered by his unwantedly bad treatment. They all nodded and after much consideration, they choose one of the young men to be on his side as an assistant and to go and join him in his adventures in deep caves. Better than him cutting the plants until no return. Even the old woman sighed and shook her head with a smile. That man definitely can't stay in the fields for one more day. So the plan was made behind his back and villagers then continued with their work, while on another side Lady Williams news changed everything.
