Emerald, slightly winded from the pace, asks what Qaab Belqane is,
“Just a dumb name that stuck. It’s Deer actually. I’d prefer if you just kept calling me Joyride.”
Emerald knows the deer language, and he is quite sure that those words aren’t in it, but he doesn’t press the issue. It’s not like he’s 100% fluent or anything.
Glancing into the air, Emerald asks, “Do you think the dragon will notice soon that the pendant is gone? Maybe he’ll just think he dropped it?”
“Even if that’s true, he’ll still blame us. We need to get off these cliffs. If we are lucky we can hide somewhere before he finds us.”
The day starts to turn to night and the road starts to deecrease in altitude, flattening out into a straight stretch of road with large forests nestled on either side. At this point, the two ponies hear a roar, and looking ahead see Whitefang flapping heavily towards them.
“Into the forest, and as far as you can go. I can’t take on a dragon if I’m worrying about you, and take the box as well. If something happens to the box and Stargazer gets out it will just complicate things. He shouldn’t breathe fire around here. He’ll get in big trouble if he does, so you should be safe.”
Emerald drags the box into the forest the best he can. It’s really heavier than it seems, and the ground is uneven and keeps catching on the box. Emerald can barely see the road, but he looks back as another roar and the cracking and collapsing of trees meets his ears.
Emerald is starting feel guilty. He may have delayed the dragon, but the fight is in a way also his fault. Maybe he should go back? The box will be safe right here right?
What does Emerald do?
