“So what you are saying is that the legend is just some fake story to keep people out of the forest?” asked Ryder.
“Basically.” Said Charlie. ”Max, how did you and Emylia hear about the story?”
“Our ancestors were the ones who went looking for the Ackerman’s. How did you know the story?” stated Emylia.
“My last name so happens to be Ackerman. It was my ancestors that your ancestors were looking for.”
“Oh, okay. That makes a lot of sense now,” said Max.
“Who is ready for some s’mores?” asked Naomi.
The two groups roasted marshmallows and continued to asked Charlie, Max, and Emylia about the legend of the black forest. Deep into the night, they drifted off to sleep and didn’t wake until the morning. When the sun rose, they gathered their belongings and headed back out of the forest, leaving the forest to its rightful owners.
