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.
 
Vask saw that the carnivorous egg had caught up to the carriage, and was now rolling alongside them.
 
Cracks in the egg opened up to reveal rows of long white teeth, smiling at Vask.
 
The bizarre exchange of smiles between Vask and the carnivorous egg was cut short as the egg suddenly veered off the path, disappearing into the dense underbrush.
 
The disappearance of the evil egg gave them enough time to quickly decipher the code..
 
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!!!
 
It seems as the carriage won't be holding much longer, Vask needs to find a distraction or he won't be able to escape.
 
With the eggs closing in on the carriage, Vask frantically looked around for anything he could use as a distraction.
 
Vask spied a gnarly large wooden stick tucked between the carriage wall and seat
 
‘I got it!!’ Vask thought to himself as he reached over and yanked the large stick from out of the seat crack.
 
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.
 
This wand had a large colorful egg on top of it with the words “If found please return to Zipper” on the side of it.
