Excerpt:
At the end of the day as the sun burned bright red in the violet and crimson sky, they reached the edge of Saldor and were entering the Realm of Talagand. The land grew heavier and the ground underfoot was much rockier. There were colossal boulders strewn about, making it difficult for the mammoths to continue on, as they could barely fit between them. The mountains grew nearer and went high above the clouds, their jagged peaks thrusting sharply upward, almost unnaturally.
Wizdom stared up at them having never before seen anything quite like them. They were truly imposing and creepy. As they traveled on, bthe clouds intensified as the sun tried to peek out between them.
Suddenly, as they were walking, a loud roar was heard in the sky above them. “DRAGONS!” shouted Pandora hysterically. “Merle!” she yelled desperately.
Quickly, Merle put up a force field, but there were too many dragons. There were nearly twenty all together. Pandora even recognized some of them. She had seen them in friendlier days, before Lord Bregolien had put them under his evil spell. They flew over head shooting fire and swooping down low trying frantically to grasp them in their deadly claws. One large, fierce, green dragon came very close to catching Rupert’s mammoth in its talons, but only managed to snatch a claw full of white hair.
“Wow, did you see that, brother?” Rupert said excitedly to Merle.
“He almost got me!” Suddenly, the same dragon came in for another dive. “Look out!” Rupert shouted to Merle.
But Merle was ready. He had his force field up like a shield and Puck and Wizdom were right next to him on their mammoth, Puck joining forces to make the force field stronger. The dragon crashed into it with a loud thud before recovering and flying back to the rest of the dragons circling overhead, readying for another strike.
As Wizdom, Puck and Merle recovered from the sonic boom created by the dragon’s impact on the force field, they realized all the woolly mammoths had turned and faced together in a circle, while their companions were still sitting on their backs. “Hold on!” Willow said to Wizdom silently.
“Hold on!” he yelled to the others, as Puck looked at him frightfully…
