We were still trying to sleep when a group of knights stumbled upon us.

"What shall we do with the lizard?" the leader spoke.

"Let us make soup out of him!" A different knight offered.

"No, that would taste terrible."

All of a sudden, Zaxl woke up in a panic.

"I do taste awful," he said grimly.

"How would you know?" The leader asked in disbelief.

"There is a reason our kind died out," Zaxl spoke with a shaky voice.

"Draulter, right?" He asked.

"Correct."

"New plan, we will take him to King Jacob."

We didn't have time to take out our weapons and we were too exhausted to use magic, so we followed the knights to King Jacob.

Zaxl followed us from behind but I could tell he was not happy.

"Well, our adventures never seem to end" Jethro spoke with a sigh.

"Nope," Zaxl affirmed.
