Evershell

Evershell (Ogniguscio in Italian) the Turtle is one of the two wisest creatures in all of Pocketville, the other being Durillia, who considers him her archenemy. He has a distant relative named Slowpoke. He lives in a hidden cave far away, and is guarded by a panther and cheetah. He gives Kate and friends advice in the form of riddles (much to Danny’s dismay), because he believes in their intelligence.

He seemed to be of very old age, however, Magic states that nobody knows how old he truly is.

He has known Princess Ava very well and they have shared many secrets, one of which being a field full of golden flowers that bloomed after every Friendship Ceremony.

Appearances
His first appearance is in "Evershell The Wise" when he is met upon by the Royal Guards because they had no idea how to get Kate home, and that Ava was no where to be found.

Then, he appeared in “A Big Responsibility (Part 1)” because with the princess gone, they had no idea how to fulfill her duties. But, all he said was that only Kate could be able to truly fulfill the duties the Siamese monarch has left for her. He also states that without the purpose of the Ceremony, then the Pocket Kingdom will cease to exist.

He makes yet another appearance in TBD

Riddles and words of the wise
“''When streams and fountains may run dry, be alert and keen of eye. For a tiny drop shining bright can make a wrong into a right.”''

This riddle means that Kate and her friends must go all around the Pocket Kingdom to search for a peculiar drop, which is used to activate the fountain for every Friendship Ceremony and fill the fountain back up with water.

“''To find out who was there but now is gone. Rely on who was not here, for she is the one.''”

This riddle talks about how Kate takes Ava’s place in Pocketville.

“''The only one who can help you is Kate. She is the key to your success.''”

This saying means that Kate is the one to help the Royal Guards out on returning Ava to the kingdom, as she was originally going to be the child who Magic was going to be sent to through the Friendship Ceremony, but takes her place when the Ceremony fails.

“''Leave here and follow the direction of your heart. Remember that sometimes the right answer is the simplest. Often the path to wisdom assumes contorted shapes. Use your heart instead of your mind and above all, your ears instead of your eyes.''”

“''The fate of the saves is in the hands of his savior. Of whom the wish must be free, sincere, and pure.''”
