*Cinders is briefly suspicious...but seeing the woman in the mirror makes her feel very sorry for her...*
Who is she...? And why is she trying to spin straw into gold...?!?! Beamish, surely that's not possible...
*A thought occurs to Cinders...*
Ah...I see...it's the "straw-into-gold" problem that's troubling her isn't it...
*Cinders sighs, then says...*
OK, Mirror, tell us where she is...

Mirror: She's in a castle far, far to the north...
*Upon hearing the "far, far" bit, Cinders almost abandons the thought of helping that girl, but Beamish has other plans...*
B: Don't you worry, Cinders, I know how we can get there even today...
*Ignoring Cinders' suspicious look, he continues...*
B: It's obvious that we can't leave her alone... Just because her father had to brag that she could spin the straw into gold in order to impress the prince... Of course we'll help her...
C: But how will we get there in time?
B: Well... What you don't know is that the girl's father is a miller... There is a river flowing from here to their kingdom, and that's not far away... If we find something that we can use as a boat, we're made - the river's quite fast...
C: What's the girl's name anyway?
B: Er... I don't quite remember... But I'll tell you when I do...
*Together they wander off to the river...*
