“Run,” he gasped, suiting actions to words. “Just get as far inland as you can, we’ll try to find some place their powers are less effective.” In truth he suspected they’d gone as far as there was to go. Dragons often attacked caravans for the treasures they carried and, if ...
The day arrived along with some mad high winds, I went prepared for the long run and for the fact that it was not going to be pretty! Is it possible to enjoy a run that included long stretches on pebbles, running through freezing cold water, trudging through knee-deep mud and crawling...
