The carriage approached the forest, the wind became slow, and the sun shined hot. "This is as far as I can take you," The driver said, "There is a village behind the forest, but going there means passing the dragon's territory."
Arad leaped from the carriage and looked at the driver, "That's fine, you go back, and we will deal with the dragon."
"I can wait for you here," The driver said.
"No, you're a big easy target. Come back tomorrow." Arad replied, but Jack lept from the carriage. "Does the village have carriages?"
"Yeah, but they never traveled in the past months since the dragon appeared." The driver replied.
"Then go back. We will grab a carriage from there. You don't have to worry," Jack said and then looked at Arad, "We might take a few days to set traps and struggle with the dragon. Two days are short."
Aella nodded, "Jack is right. We will get back when it's safe."
