Reaching the other side of the mountain, the clearing it was in was much larger on the back side of the enormous mountain, which appeared to be more on one side of the clearing rather than in the middle of it.
The twin suns beat down on them, spreading their heat as Ruby ran past the clearing. Drake sensed horned worms on this side of the clearing as well. His glowing gaze peered down beneath the dirt. These horned worms were also allies. It appeared the entire clearing filled with horned worms was an ally.
This was a good thing. It made things safer for him and his cohort.
Ruby continued to run, making it past the large clearing. The trees flew by rapidly as she got farther away from the clearing and Dragon Head Mountain, which got smaller the farther she ran.
