Billy blushed and looked down at his coat. The air had become milder during this chance meeting.
The frogs wiped their eyes by lashing up their tongues from their mouths. It was indeed an odd sight to behold.
"Right then," The red frog said, raising his chest, "Let's get down to business. Does everyone know their lines?"
They all nod.
"What are you going to do?" Billy asked.
The blue frog looked at him sternly, "Don't interrupt us, boy." He said, "It's taken us hours to learn this, don't ruin our concentration now."
Billy stepped back and watched as they closed their eyes and breathed deeply.
"Billy," The yellow frog said, her voice more serious, "We know your brother is being held in the castle through the woods." She opened her eyes, "And we are here to help you find him."
"That's right, my lad." The green frog said, her eyes opening too, "The dungeon is enchanted with many doors and you brother is being held behind one of them."
"We cannot directly tell you which door it is." The blue frog said, "It's a curse that Marzurka has placed on us."
"But we can help you figure it out for yourself." Said the red frog, "The frog who knows the true door has been resting on this log for the longest. Listen to the clues we give you very carefully, and then see if you can deduce who knows the truth."
