[ Alfin had seen the ice cream parlor from her perch in the park the previous day, and today had resolved to visit it. To her surprise, there was already someone there. In fact, it was someone she had already met... and didn't have too great of an impression of. She believed he called himself... Axel, King of the Pridelands. ]
