Over the next four hours the dragon had flown faster than a shooting star. Knowing they wouldn't reach the goblin's home this day but maybe it would save them a half a day of traveling if he tried a little harder. He half expected the empress to tell him to land. Another hour passed by them  as he flew over one city after another. Then he heard another set of wings flapping close to them. Looking to the right, he saw a pale blue and lavender Pegasus flying  alongside him.  

"Hi there. Great day for flying isn't it?" 

"Yes I suppose it is." Soranto replied.

"Are you from around here?" The Pegasus asked.

"No. We are from Goblin's Hollow." 

"Wow that's really far from here." 

"Yes it is. I'm Soranto. The two on my back are Ralvania and Vamier." He introduced his friends.

"I'm Ferra, good to meet all of you." 

"You too." The empress answered.

"Where are you headed?" Vamier asked.

"Unicorn's Cove, my home. " 

The gremlin nodded.

"I like to fly to different places but nothing compares to my home." She told them.

"I can understand that one." The empress commented.

Ferra looked down for a moment then back to the new creatures she'd just met.

"There's my home right down there. Glad to meet you all. If you're ever in unicorns cove stop in to see me."  The Pegasus told them before diving down near the waterfall near unicorn's cove.

"She was different."  Ralvania stated.

"Yes but harmless." Soranto replied.

After ten minutes of silence the empress spoke up.

"Do you need to stop and rest?" 

"I'll let you know, not yet." The dragon answered.

"Okay but don't over do it." 

"Empress I'm fine." He told her in a firm tone.

       Ralvania let it go before he became aggravated.  She looked down as they passed by large cities, valleys and caverns. As she looked up there was the gremlin sleeping soundly. Watching him sleep, she hoped to be able to save his home and his people.
