When Heracles and other met the dragon Grogon and Aiden, the guilder


“It’s Grogon, a ground dragon.” a humpback man who brought an old lamp on his bony hand from somewhere approached Heracles, “It’s juvenile. If it is mature, it can round the world few rounds. However, some rules make creatures like it not to be allowed to appeared front of people. They have to live in Underworld. Some of them accept to be carriers to get out from the Underworld.”
“Whatever, my name is Aiden. I will be the person who brings you to Hippocoon. Guess you all have met the Shadow-shifter. He was a child liking to play with everybody. You must get much fear before you come to here.” added the humpback man.
“Yes, we did.” said Heracles.
Then clanks spread out. Millions of pair feet appeared under Grogon which looked more like a huge millipede than a dragon. Grogon took a long yawn. Its head started moving back.
“Welcome! Welcome first year.” Grogon said loudly, “new faces, very young and having much potential. I am Grogon who will bring you to Hippocoon. Very nice to meet you all.”
“And he is Aiden, the guider.” Grogon’s head stopped facing to Aiden. It stared at Heracles by giant eyes then moved to Gwen and Amelinda.
“Little friends, do you see doors on my body. Yes, they are doors if you don’t know. Please walk in. There are compartments after them. Make their way to have seats there in time. You have no other options because we will not come back till the next year.”
“It’s time to go.” roared Grogon.
The doors on Grogon’s body suddenly slid open. Aiden hurriedly clung on the door nearest on Grogon’s head. “See you all at Hippocoon.” said Aiden. He went in, slid close the door. Grogon moved ahead back to the place it had laid before.
“Hurry up!” said Grogon loudly.
It took Heracles and others minutes hesitating. They kept staying there at right their places a while. Later, some of them started moving. They made their way to the doors and then walked in. Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda also went. They made the way to the nearest door facing to them. Heracles went first. There was nice compartment with seats were set on either side. A small way was between of them for people to go. Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda made their ways to have seats at the right beside the door.
“So we go.” the voice of Grogon spread out. The clanks spread out one more time, turned noisier than ever. Grogon’s feet started moving ahead, got faster and faster. Heracles could see lamps hanging on the tunnel wall ran backward through the opposite door. Then the clanks vanished. They spread up. It made Heracles couldn’t see clearly anything outside. He turned in.
“It’s also your first time?” he talked to Gwen.
“Honestly, it is.” replied Gwen, “Many things you are not allowed to know or see if you are unqualified.”
“They are really awesome.” said Amelinda, “I nearly lost my soul at the first time I saw them. Honestly, I had read about them a little in history of gods and goddesses. There had something about them at chapter Hade and creatures in Underworld. They all live in Underworld. Grogon honestly is a scary creature. It is considered fastest and longest creature. Its body is extremely tough. Furthermore, it owns deadly venom which even can kill half god blood human.”
“Really, I have never heard about it before.” said Gwen, “Do you know something about Shadow-shifter?”

“A proud boy.” said the owl of wisdom, “Let me see you.” It flew slowly around Hank, “Your god Ares seem to favor you. A vulture symbol under was your ear and a spear symbol was on your arm. You are wise boy who know to come after fight and get the spoils. However, you are also great in combat if you need to do it. You are a good boy will sever your god well in future.” said the owl of wisdom. “Please go to the table closest to your left. It’s the place for Aresians.” Hank made his way to his family where many people had stayed there. “Bravo!”, “Great boy!” said others there. They shook Hank’s hand, greeted with high five. The place turned crowded in minutes and made Heracles not happy much.  Next after Hank was Morela who was also sat on the same boat with Heracles. Morela came from Delphi the city was protected by god Apollo, the sun god. Of course, she was blessed by her god, a symbol of the sun appeared brilliantly at the middle of her head in golden light.

Chapter 11: The gate (part 9)

A loud bag spread out above their heads. Two hooded cloak men lied quietly on ground. Roger walked to the gallery. “Heracles, Gwen and Amelinda, you all are here. It is hard to find you” he called up. He hurriedly made the way step down the stairs. Though his body was big and stout, he moved very fast coming to them and froze as he saw a dead on ground. “Who are they?” he asked softly, looking on Amelinda. “This is Lily and - Aunt Calliope.” Amelinda said hesitantly; “She is Lily’s mother. She saved all of us.” she added sadly.  Between curly hair and bushy beard which almost covered his face were warm eyes. She warmly looked on Lily who was sitting on ground holding her mother’s hand. He decided to keep silent, turned to Heracles, Gwen, Amelinda then turned to the dead Hydra dragon which was not far away from them.  “I dont know how you could kill the dragon but there has one thing we have to do before we leave this place.” said Roger calmly, “Go with me Amelinda. I need your...

“We can’t ask him.” squealed Gwen, “He is the person I don’t want to tell most. We should find All-For-You shop first and If we don’t find it, we will try to find other ways.” “We have no other choice.” said Heracles.  The carriage kept moving in long time then stopped. “We came - master.” the voice of the coachman coming in. “We Out Heracles.” said Gwen.  Heracles stood up at one. He kept his head down, gabbed on door handle then pushed it open. He made his way step out landing on the ground first, Gwen right after him then stepped aside. He turned to his coachman. “Find the way to park and make sure you can see us when we turn back. We will not here long time.” he said. “Follow your words, master.” said the coachman solemnly. He leathered the horses riding away.  Hurriedly, Heracles and Gwen strode off. They heading to a narrow aisle between houses, where they found All-For-You shop last time. It’s always deserted inside the aisle every times they walked in it and didn’...
