@miss kitty:
It was indeed Frizz.

Very well done. You did indeed arrive at the correct answer... I suppose it could have also had the hint 'what you are seeking'.
The final round...

The Caterpillar casually draws the pipe from his lips, smiling.
Very well done... Only. I do see a slight error with your conclusion.
He taps the pipe towards the crossword, pointing to number 15.
Allow me to offer a hint for you...

This is not an unfamiliar word for you, Static.

CONTINUED...
The Caterpillar exhaled a ring of smoke with a chuckle, "Well done, Static. You have bested my challenge and as promised, I will answer your questions to the fullest of my abilities."
"Thank you," the Guardian smiled gently. "If you could please tell me where I can find the White Rabbit, or possibly where I should go next, I'd be grateful."
The Caterpillar gave a strong nod after a moment, and took a long drag of the hookah pipe. The Guardian watched with a tilt of the head as the man then released a mighty breath that filled the space between them with smoke. But the smoke was different. It seemed to be sparking as if it possessed magical qualities, and soon it swirled to reveal an image unfamiliar to the curious Guardian.
"Before you lies the Flower Garden. Do not let its beauty disarm you, Static, for there is very real danger lurking beneath the lush green. Ah," the Caterpillar nodded as a familiar figure dashed across the scene displayed upon the shifting screen of smoke. "One of the individuals you seek. No doubt on his way to Her Majesty's court. Hm? What is this..." The screen crackled violently and revealed the picture of someone Static knew intimately.
"Frizz!" He called out and reached towards the screen, but the smoke dissipated as soon as his fingers grazed the edge. "Oh noo! Mister Caterpillar, where was that? That pig... bundled in the blankets..." He balled his hands. "That's my sister."
"You must hurry, then," the Caterpillar seemed to be panting as he took the hookah pipe with a shaky hand. "I am afraid the Duchess is an unpredictable character. If she is involved, there is no telling what might transpire. Go now, to the Flower Garden that waits just ahead, and speak to its hostess. She will guide you further."
"Okay! But... are you alright?" Static gave the man a concerned look, but he brushed it off with a wave.
"Do not worry about me, Static. I will be fine," he smiled. "I promise. Now go forth, quickly."
"O-okay, I will! Thank you very much for your help, Mister Caterpillar." The Guardian floated off and after he was long gone, the Caterpillar took a much needed drag of the pipe.
"Static... and his kin," he exhaled. "Perhaps they shall be the ones to alter this curse."
The Caterpillar exhaled a ring of smoke with a chuckle, "Well done, Static. You have bested my challenge and as promised, I will answer your questions to the fullest of my abilities."
"Thank you," the Guardian smiled gently. "If you could please tell me where I can find the White Rabbit, or possibly where I should go next, I'd be grateful."

Vontell sighs weakly from this information, nodding as he glances down worriedly.
@aliceinzombieland: Let's only hope that it is temporary... It'll have to wait until after, but it is a troubling thought...
He smiles warmly, nodding gently and appreciating your thoughtful deductions.
Thank you... I agree with that assessment. I do highly appreciate the support, I know with your help we'll be able to return her safe to her home... I trust you, I trust all of you fully.
He nods, allowing you to take his hand.
Hm... Now that you mention it. There was a strange eeriness to the air around that figure... There was no warmth to her touch, although I'm unsure if I could call it cold, either. It felt.. Almost like nothing. If it weren't for the pressure of her hand I wouldn't have been able to register it.
As for the smell... The closest I could compare it to is the sickeningly sweet scent of decay, but very faint.

@aliceinzombieland: While I appreciate the concern there's hardly time to stop! Hm...
Vontell sighs, unable to refuse the request, merely slowing himself instead as he leans in to allow you to check his eyes. On outer appearance you don't see anything wrong, but you do notice how badly he needs to squint to see you.
It's difficult to see... Everything seems more dark and blurry... My eyes and head are beginning to ache, as well. However, all things considered I'd say it's minor. I'm fine, I assure you.
He smiles gently. It's hard to tell if he's being honest with you or just trying to reassure you.

@dowan: And interesting question! Leo? What do you see?
Leo, who has been galloping beside everyone slows down, his snout pressing to the ground as he sniffs, his beady eyes narrowing slightly. He grunts, signalling do a very small droplet on the ground, finding another about five meters ahead. Leo's careful not to let it touch his nose as he continues to sniff the ground. The next one he finds is even further ahead, about eight meters from the previous.
It's not a lot but, that is something! Hm... Leo seems wary of it... Please be attentive not to step in it.

Vontell coughs, moving along because nothing at all strange happened.
Hurry my friends, this is an important choice to make! Vivienne's fate rests on us!
