The sun was rising and the dragon got up. He walks over to the edge of the temple and sits down. He hears a voice coming from inside "when is my dad coming back" a wolf walks out and sits next to him "I don't know" the dragon said "maybe tod-" he sees a wolf run out from the forest. The little wolf yells "DADDDY" he runs out of the temple but the dragon blocks him with his tail. The older wolf stops in front of the dragon and bows down "there...is two foxes...in the forest" the dragon smiles "do you want to take a break"
"No....I can't....I have to go back and help the mother fox"
The dragon gets worried "are they hurt"
"The mom is....badly hurt and she can't walk but the....child is fine"
The dragon tells the wolf the lay down and flew away. While flying he looks Down through the trees and sees a orange color. He flies down and lands in front of them. "Are you okay" he says panicking" the mother fox looks up "a little"
"You need help I can take you both back to the-" she stops him and says "you should take my son back before me"
"Why don't I take you both back"
The little fox wakes up and sees the dragon. He yawns and looks at the mother "who's that"
"That's Nogard, he's going to take you to the temple" she says
"Are you coming"
"Yeah, I'll come" she looks up at Nogard "please"
He looks at the little fox "ok, I'll come back for you"
"There is no point of coming back" she says
Nogard froze and the mother then says "please take care of him" and starts crying
The Little fox walks over to her "are you ok"
"I'm fine"
Nogard calls the fox to follow him and as walked away they both look back at her. While walking to the temple the little fox asked "so are far is it"
"How far is what" said Nogard
"The temple"
"Kinda far, but when I fly there it's a lot faster"
"YOU CAN FLY" the fox says excited
"Yeah"
"CAN I SEE"
"No"
"Why"
"Because I have to walk you back"
"Why"
"Because you can't fly"
"What if I can"
"You can't"
"Maybe I could"
"No you can't" a few minutes past and the fox then asked "can you fly upside down"
"A little"
As they walked Nogard kept thinking about the mother fox and then the little fox said "did my mommy tell you my name yet"
"No, what is it"
The fox runs and slides in front of a Nogard. While he walked backwards he says "my name is Erif"
"Ok...Erif you should turn around before you run into something"
"We are in a big empty sandy place I don't think I wi-" he trips over something and fell. While Nogard walks past him he says "there are rocks here"
Erif looks at the rock and then started pushing it with his head. Nogard looks behind him and sees him "what are you doing"
Erif smiles "using my head"
Nogard turns around "that wasn't funny"
Hours past and Nogard could see the temple over the hill of sand. He looks back at Erif and sees him staring at the sand "HEY, ERIF"
Erif looks up "what"
"We're almost there"
Erif runs up next to Nogard and saw the temple   Nogard starts walking and Erif followed
Nogard looks at Erif who looked excited "why are you so happy"
"I never seen a temple before" he answered
"It's nothing that interesting. It's old and some of the pillars are broken"
"I like old stuff"
When they got to the temple Erif instantly looks at the pillars "I wonder if I can get up there"
"Please don't try"
Erif stares at the pillars for a a few seconds "one day I will"
"You're already scaring me and I just met you today" 
Erif turns and walked inside the temple "THIS PLACE BIG"
Nogard walks in "it was big until it started falling apart"
"What happened"
"Nothing happened, it's just falling apart"
He walks towards a corner and lays down. "You can look around if you want, just don't leave the area"
It went quite for a few minutes and Nogard starts falling asleep until heard a noise of something scratching the stone ground. He opened his eyes and saw Erif dragging a stick "what are you doing"
"I'm making a way to tell which way is north"
"Why"
"My mom said if you ever get lost go north"
He runs out of the temple and came back in. He picks up the stick and draws a small arrow pointing towards the wall next to Nogard
He backs up and looks at it
"Wrong way" says Nogard
"Really"
"Yeah, go outside and look at the pillars"
Erif walks out and sees the pillars. He turns and looks at Him confused "what about them"
"There are four pillars and each represents the the different elements"
Erif walks back inside and sat in front of him "my mom told me there are three el...la....mints"
Nogard smiles "there are and I tell you about them after I teach you how to say element right"
Erif lays down next to him "what's the fourth one"
"No one knows, but they say that to get it you have to travel and never stop until you find it"
The sun starts setting and They both fall asleep.
