Chapter Thirty-Nine
The portal spat Paris out onto a beautiful green plain with rolling hills and trees every so often. It unmistakably smelled like a farm.
Paris glanced down at her boots to ensure she wasnât standing in the middle of a patty of cow waste. Thankfully she wasnât, but the odor was still all around her.
After nearly being trampled by a horse recently, Paris tensed when a large creature thundered in her direction from across the grassy hills. Well, it didnât thunder like a stallion. Instead, the wide animal with long hair trotted toward her, swaying from side to side. What was stranger than the beast that looked ready to slowly mow Paris down was the tower of giraffes that ambled toward her behind the creature.
Paris didnât feel that she was in any immediate danger of getting trampled until she turned to look over her shoulder and saw the biggest person sheâd ever seen. Paris had seen many giants on Roya Lane. They had the worst tempers and thought they could bully easily due to their size. The giantess who strode across the green grass in Parisâ direction was larger than the others, making them look like dwarfs of the species.
The giants on Roya Lane were usually about six-and-a-half feet tall. The rumor was that they were halflings of sorts because real giants would never live in actual society. The âreal giantsâ all lived on the Isle of Man apparently, and they were huge. The one approaching had to be at least seven feet tall, and although she wore an olive green safari suit and hat, she didnât appear to be a welcoming tour guide based on the scowl on her face.
Paris glanced over her shoulder to find that the giraffes and the yak in the lead had paused. She glanced back to see the giantess had halted a few paces from Paris.
âYou look like your mother, Guinevere,â the woman said after measuring Paris up. âLetâs hope for both our sakes that you donât act like her.â
