"What was that?"
"One of the crystals... it lit up!"
― Gordon and Nia

Crystal Cavern is the sixth short of the Short Story Adventures series.

Plot[]

Nia arrives at the mines to find Gordon grumbling at the entrance; as it turns out, he and Thomas have to deliver ties to the bottom of the mine, but he can't enter because his lamp burned out. Nia offers to light his way to the bottom, but as soon as they enter Gordon's flatbed runs away from them and a chase ensues. The two manage to make their way to the Crystal Cave and admire it before a falling rock breaks Nia's light. Left in the dark, Nia discovers that tapping the crystals makes them glow, allowing her and Gordon to find the flatbed. Thomas then arrives in the middle of their celebration, and as soon as Nia clues him in, he joins the fun as all three head for the bottom of the mine.
