The Climate Change Adventure - The Rescue Elves, #3

The Relves were very excited today because their rescue mission was taking them to one of their favorite places in the world - the old ruins of the Island Castle. There they would meet up with their young fish friends, who they hadn't seen in a long, long, time. "This is going to be such a treat, " Sparkle said with a smile. Holly nodded. "Yeah, I love all the rich, green grass where the old castle sits!" Jack eagerly added, "And the clear blue water of the lake around it all, " as Charlie grinned in agreement.
The Relves had all the special equipment they needed that day. A mountain rescue rope, hard hats so they would not hurt their heads, and sturdy climbing boots. But, as they got closer to the castle ruins, they could not believe their eyes. What once was an old broken-down castle on a small island in the middle of a gentle lake, was now a towering castle, that sat on what looked like a mountain. And the lake had all but disappeared, except for a few large puddles that looked like they were moving by themselves.
