CHAPTER FIFTEEN

TRYX TO THE RESCUE

A SCRATCHING NOISE made him glance up at the small, high window. He was expecting to see a tree branch brushing against the window but a golden head with green eyes peered back at him.

‘Tryx?’ he said, sitting up and standing on a chair to reach the window. He pushed open the small window and the dragon tried to push her snout inside. Outside the sun was close to the horizon. Kheron woke Dyahn and came over to see what was going on.

Help you go home, Tryx said in what was probably supposed to be a whisper, but in the quiet room it was very loud.

‘How?’ Kheron asked, keeping his voice low.

Take neckband from father’s lair, Tryx said, proudly holding up a smaller version of the neckband Ryena had worn.

‘You stole it?’ Dyahn asked with a disapproving tilt of her head.

Borrowed, Tryx corrected her with a guilty look. Give back when you home.

‘Do you know how to open the gateway?’ Kheron asked. He clearly didn’t mind where the neckband came from as long as they made it home and Rhonan felt the same.

Heard words Klel used. Dragons very good hearing, Tryx assured them with a nod. Come outside soon. Must get there by dark. Dragons not see well at dusk.

‘We should at least say goodbye to Merryn,’ Dyahn said.

‘What if she tries to stop us?’ Kheron pointed out. ‘She knows the gate isn’t supposed to be opened again.’

‘And I also know that children belong with their parents,’ a voice said from the doorway. They all turned guiltily to see Merryn standing by the door. ‘Come up to the roof, we can talk much easier up there.’

They meekly followed the small woman back to the spiral stairs and up to the flat roof. Tryx was waiting for them and Merryn looked at them sternly. ‘Brax didn’t say you couldn’t go home. He just said they were sealing the gateway in morning. Do you think you can do it without the blue dragons seeing?’

Dragons not see well at dusk, Tryx said, nodding eagerly. Go through quickly – not be seen.

‘That’s true,’ Merryn said, appearing to be thinking it over. She looked up at the gateway in the distance then turned back to the children. ‘I know how I’d feel if it were one of my children stuck in a different world. I’d want them home.’

‘So you won’t tell anyone?’ Rhonan asked.

‘As long as you make sure the blue dragons don’t come through to Dragon Valley,’ Merryn said with a small nod and a smile which turned to a frown. ‘The last time they came through they nearly destroyed the entire valley. You’ll have to go soon if you want to get up there by nightfall.’

‘Thank you,’ Kheron said, nodding gratefully.

‘I’ll be watching the gateway. If I see even a tiny speck of blue dragon I’ll ring the bell and call out every dragon in the valley,’ Merryn warned with a wag of her finger.

‘We’ll be careful. Thanks for making us so welcome,’ Dyahn said, rushing up to the old woman and throwing her arms around her.
