"No, you really can't." Flynn smiles, both at Peter's enthusiastic response and his concern for Treasure Chest.
"The Treasure Chest thanked the Boulder and called back 'I know how!' and left the cave. It didn't want the Boulder to tell the Spikes and Flame Traps that it didn't know what to do. Outside, it sat for a long time, looking up at the sky. It marveled at the stars. It had never been outside the cave ever since it was put there, so of course it had not seen the stars in a very long time.
Feeling sad and discouraged, it called up to them. 'Stars, Stars! Do you remember me? You saw me when I was brought here. Now I want to leave but I don't know where to go! I do not have a map - how am I to find my way?'
And the Stars said 'Hello, we remember you'." Flynn's voice turns soft because the Stars sparkle and they are nice and they have seen so many things in their life. "The Treasure Chest felt really welcome and a bit better. 'Hello', they said again, 'we remember you. We do not have a map for you. But we have guided many without a map before. They looked to us and we helped them make their map. This is the way it has always been. All Explorers look to us and we welcome all Explorers. If you wish to be an Explorer, we will guide your way.'
And the Treasure Chest was happy because it understood. It would just have to make a map itself. A map that had never been there before. A map that lead the Treasure to the Hunters."
