"It would show you what you seek. However, do not be deceived. Nothing in wonderland is real! Do not be tempted to go through the portal or you would be lost...forever!"

He shrugged and looked into the mirror, at first, he saw a reflection of himself. He was disappointed.

Its edges however had the finest design he had ever seen on wood. It kept changing, depicting scenes from years before his birth. Tales told by word of mouth he saw displayed on wood.

"Alas! The witch has tricked me! How would stories help me save my love from her captors? Does she think me a fool?"

"Look again!" A soft voice whispered.

And he did and saw his love. Then he knew how to save her. He would have to go through the portal...he would journey to wonderland and he would come back alive!

He smiled, the witch's warning forgotten as he dreamed of his glorious adventure to wonderland!
