The heroes set out towards the Dragon's Spine, their footsteps quiet on the ancient earth. They traveled for days, the landscape growing more rugged and unforgiving with each step.
As they walked, they talked, sharing stories and jokes to lighten the mood. But beneath the surface, tensions were running high.
Jax and Cyrin got into a heated argument over the best route to take. Elowen and Alistair disagreed on how to handle the traitor in their midst.
Lyra listened, her eyes watching the group with concern. She knew that they had to work together, but it was getting harder and harder to keep the peace.
As the sun began to set on the fifth day, they saw the Dragon's Spine rising up before them. The mountains towered above, their peaks lost in the clouds.
"We're getting close," Kael said, his voice low and urgent. "We need to be careful. The dragons are not to be trifled with."
The heroes nodded, their faces set with determination. They knew that they were in for the fight of their lives.
