The Desert
One hour later every one was crossing the desert that separated the temple from the city. Merlo had given them a wagon pulled by two horses. They were a quarter of the way.
"What is the name of this stupid desert again?" asked Lidda.
"The Sacarrey Desert." whimpered Tordek.
"I hate deserts, they're so damn hot!" complained Redgar.
"I would cast my dark spell, but, it's gonna be night soon anyway." Said Eberk. Suddenly the wagon fell back.
"What the?" screamed Lidda as she tumbled back. The horses bellowed loudly as they were sent flying. The cart landed on its side, banged up with the horses blacked out.
"What just happened?" yelled Tordek in a cranky voice.
"This is what happened," said Yoshimo, holding a chopped up wheel.
"Hello, what's this?" said Lidda who just noticed a chest in the ground. Out of the corner of his eye Redgar saw some movement.
"I think I'll take a look around," he said drawing a great sword.
"Hey, guys, take a look at this," said Lidda with much excitement. She managed to dig up the chest.
"Are you sure you should just open something like that." Warned Eberk.
"Come on what could happen if I just … oh, god." Lidda opened the chest, and a short-fused bomb. Boom!!! Lidda was sent flying. She hit the ground with a sickening crunch, not moving or making a sound. Suddenly, creatures with armor and huge swords came out from hiding.
"Hobgoblins!" Yelled Tordek, as he prepared for battle.
