Chapter 59: Revelations

“Woohoo!!!” Khutulun shouted in surprise and excitement as we rode through the land at a speed that would have been impossible for any other means of transportation.

Magic was, indeed, a miraculous thing.

We were currently “riding” my earth dragons as they floated five feet over the ground. The most beautiful thing was their speed. I didn’t know exactly how fast we were going, except for the wind whistling in our ears, and pulling our lips backward.

Twenty minutes into our journey I stopped to create helmets with windshields made of ice for the three of us so that we could enjoy the speed.

Khutulun was the first to appreciate it, and, despite his lack of initial response, I knew the General was enjoying the ride too.

We stopped mid-afternoon to stretch our legs and eat something. We were at least 200 miles away from our parting stop but had yet to find anyone. Khutulun spotted horse tracks along the way, but no sign of any of the tribes.
