The sixth door is large and has a curved top, unlike some of the other square doors. You knock on it and immediately here a woman say, "Please, come in."
You see two female elves as you walk in, although one is very pale and looks dead, they both appear very similar in shape.
The elf that looks dead speaks, revealing herself as the one who asked you to enter. "Welcome, I am Xynnounk. This is Ziorounk, who is also visiting me today."
You notice their names sound similar and blurt out, "Are you two related?"
Ziorounk looks at you as if you've said something extremely silly. "No, of course not. Why would you think that?" She glances over to Xynnounk. "We look nothing alike, really, except we both are witches and we both have magical balls."
Indeed, both of them have magical balls of energy in their hands. You gulp now, worrying about them using it on you. You decide it's best to explain yourself. "Well, your names sound similar, that's all..."
Again they exchange glances, but this time Xynnounk speaks. "Well, Elves use special naming rules, which draw upon one of the elf languages. The sounds 'ounk' is a very common ending for elves."
Feeling silly, you finally introduce yourself. Xynnounk smiles, "How odd that you've come at the perfect time. Do tell me wanderor, are you looking for anything special to take back to your homeland?"
"Yes, I am..."
