A Task From Vask - Story Complete!

Meanwhile, Vask tried his best not to look at the incredibly strange and frightening happenings outside the carriage and continued to try and decipher the symbols on the amulet.
 
As Vask was trying his hardest to shut off his “ears”, another horrifically bizarre noise started radiating all around the carriage, growing louder and louder by the second, until Vask could feel the vibration pulsating through his skin.
 
Just as Vask was able to think in peace, the evil egg returned and lunged toward him.
 
Amidst the chaos unfolding outside of the carriage, Vask frantically began to take mental inventory of the strange events of the evening-- "First the glowing egg in the tree; Then, the glowing egg in the cave; and now I'm being chased by three more..."
 
There was no doubt in Vask’s mind that Zipper—or maybe the false Zipper—had orchestrated these events to scare him. But why?
 
The more he thought, the more he wondered if he was really the target of these crazy eggs of if Zipper was just holding a grudge against all of his halloweeny friends.
 
Pocketing the deciphered amulet safely into his jacket, Vask needed to find a way to escape this madness, the eggs were practically ontop of the carriage, making awful noises!!!
 
Vask’s head fell as he noticed there seemed to be some strange writing intermixed with some of the symbols from the amulet etched on the large stick which actually didn’t resemble a stick as much as it did a wand.
