Eventually, they came to an old wooden hut and the raven flew straight through the open doorway with Ben, Amy and Hal in pursuit. It glided across the room and landed on a window opening which contained no glass. Ben ran to the window and looked out. To his amazement he was no longer looking at the wood but staring straight across a quarry, a huge quarry thousands of feet deep! It looked like a massive, circular, empty basin with steep, rocky sides. An old rusted shaft could be seen at the far side, and Ben knew that this must have once been a working mine. An occasional tree had grown along the steep sides and overgrowth filled the bottom of the basin. The wooden building was probably an old lookout point for the mineworkers.

The raven gave a high-pitched squawk and flew off the window ledge into the air above the quarry. As Ben watched it fly into the distance, his attention was diverted to something else approaching through the sky. At first he thought that it was a huge bird, but as it got nearer, he realised that this beast was far too large to be a bird. He began to make out its reddish colour and its shape, with the most enormous wings that he had ever seen and an extremely long, jagged tail. Ben, Amy and Hal gasped in horror as the creature opened its huge jaws and blew out a great, glittering ball of fire. The dragon glided through the air towards the far side of the basin and landed gracefully on the rock face. It turned to look back across the quarry before swooping into a large cave and disappearing from sight.

“I think we have found our red dragon!” Hal stated uneasily.

The others looked across the basin of the quarry in fear.
