Peter Grant didn't take his eyes off the monstrous black cloud billowing from the volcano over the island of Khemia. "I don't know," Peter said. "Maybe it will cover the whole sky."The two friends stood on a slight rise in the forest, gazing beyond the trees, across the island, at the volcano. An orange glow marked its mouth, where lava still spewed in a slow, torrential flow. Above the volcano the haze of spreading darkness was evident even in the moonlight, like an ink stain spreading across the night sky, blotting out the stars."Scientists believe that a cloud like this wiped out the dinosaurs," Peter said, his eyes mesmerized by the ever-growing dark haze of ash rising above the volcano. "Only it wasn't from a volcano, but a massive asteroid that struck the ocean just off the Yucatan Peninsula sixty-five million years ago. Gregory, are you even listening to me?"But Gregory's gaze had drifted toward the ground where he was busy foraging. "I'm trying not to," he said.Peter stepped down off the ridge and joined Gregory's search of the forest floor. "Well, you should listen. Science is what separates us from the lower mammals.""Hopefully I am the only one listening to you," Gregory hissed. "Keep your voice down, already.""Right," Peter whispered, scanning the moonlit forest as if Gul'nog might swarm them any moment. "I forgot." Before his transport from London to the mysterious world of Aedyn and the island of Khemia, he'd never had to worry about such things.Gregory pointed. "There!"Peter ducked. "You see one?" In the darkness, the outline of Gregory's arm was barely visible. "At least one," he said. He strode forward and knelt beside something on the turf.Peter's heart thumped in his chest. A Gul'nog? Here? Before Peter had time to react, Gregory pulled his small knife-and sliced at the dirt. Peter almost laughed in relief. It wasn't one of the horrible, eight-feet-tall creatures ready to tear their limbs off. Gregory had found a fungus. Fungi.Mushrooms, to be exact. "Bring me your bag." Gregory cut the mushrooms with his small knife and dropped them into Peter's canvas sack. He wiped the blade and slid it back into the leather scabbard on his belt."How many, Gregory?" Peter was still spooked, so he kept his voice soft in his companion's ear."Twelve."Peter's shoulders dropped a little. "All right," he said. "Let's find the others. Maybe they've had better luck."They rose and went back the way they had come. They knew these woods-knew how to pass
