They had all climbed for a very long time indeed. The road was harsh and sometimes they had all been climbing on all fours. Lenwe of course, had lead them all the way and he seemed to know what he was doing. A silence had been brought over the comapny and was only interrupted by a few "auch's" and "Oi"s" now and then.

They all felt that they lost their grip when sand and rock rolled down the mountain side, which Ewinda wasn't to pleased about. She was quite afraid of falling down, well no one could blame her after the "pit" accident. She had hurt her back and she wasn't ready for another injury. But then a thought crossed her mind; How on earth were they going to slay the dragon and come out alive? She didn't seem to find the answer either, something that she found very dissturbing during the climbing.

Suddely her thoughts were interuppted by a wispher that said they'd reached their final step, they had reached the peak after a long and hard jurney. The sun was blood red and it shone upon the company.

They all let out a short "yes" and "fianally" when the last two, Selvren and Grain, had come safe up to the peak. Lenwe looked around and so did Elentari. Ewinda herself was to tired to do anything so she just sat down waiting for "orders". A long silence was brought ovr the company again.

"What now?" Ewinda asked quite loud so everyone could hear it. "Oh, well I know what.....we are going to slay the dragon," she added quickly. "I mean, should we set up a camp or something, or would that be follish?" She continued.

"I think it would drawn to much attention, the dragon may see us, it would almost be as camping at the dragon's doorstep." Lenwe said. "But we are all tired, so we must come up with something and find a place where we can gain our streghts."

All gave short nods to show that they agreed. They were all extremly tired and they wouldn't mind to get something to eat either.

"Let's have a look around," Elentari said suddenly.
