1358. Forward Thinking

"Whoa there! Keep calm. Let the guests off and you can go and play in the lava for a while!" The tamers that helped the party off of the back of the lava diving bats were struggling to calm them. They were too happy to be home and wanted to rush off toward the lava already. 

Walker looked around. He had watched as the landscape changed below them while holding on to the bats. The fields gave way to mountains and the mountains to rolling hills of lava spread out between large volcanoes. The height they were at allowed the party to see that they could potentially pass through this area and back to the oceans. 

The tamer's outpost was much larger than Elise had made it sound. There were sturdy stone buildings with many tamers moving around to prepare food ton delivery or even training their tamed beasts. It was a fire elemental monster paradise.
