Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Think of a transformation - nothing else is required

The magic powder transforms whatever it is sprinkled on into what its user is thinking of. The Great Farloss mumbles alleged magic words while using it, but Ssalia discovers that they are just for show - the powder works without any magic words or movements!

Answer: His yellow skin colour

Frynnik is a member of the shore tribe of Gyvna, who look very different from the snake people. When Ssalia sees Frynnik next to the bed she wakes up in, she first takes note of his yellow skin, then his small nose and eyes, his lack of scales and finally the seashell on his head.

Answer: Slasher

When she visits his house, the kind old gardener presents Ssalia with a bladed weapon called a slasher, which has a wooden handle and teeth lining its sides like a saw blade. It comes with a sheath to carry it in.

4. Things are not looking good for Ssalia when an invisible fiend injects her with a harmful substance. According to the lore keeper, what do the vile "unseen" call this substance?

Answer: Their essence

The invisible unseen inject victims with their "essence", a powerful poison. Though primarily intended to weaken its victim to persuade them to join the unseen, it can also be lethal in larger doses, as the lore keeper explains.

Answer: He taps on the gem twice

When the lore keeper taps on the jade stone on his staff twice, it begins to glow, filling the room with a green light that is only as bright as needed in order to see.

Answer: T�rkisin

The great white lizards are called the t�rkisin; Chieftain Genev�r mentions them as an example of a species his tribe has tamed. Others are the bird scouts known as fe�nokin and the hen�rin, or katoblepa, which pull the barbarians' carriages.

Answer: Her report about the gardener and his talking flowers

When Ssalia tells the young dragons about her journey, Ri'nan is greatly amused by her account of the plant-like gardener and his talking flowers, but is scared when she speaks of the villainous unseen.

Answer: A statuette made of crystals

Ssalia notices a stone table in the centre of the guest bedroom, which has a statuette made of shiny red and orange crystals on top of it. The sculpture depicts a fiery bird that Ssalia identifies as a rare and beautiful phoenix.

Answer: Fend

The banner of Sserendon shows a crowned "fend" in gold on white. Fendwood trees can also be found growing in arboreta within the city walls; the gardner's way leads between them.

Answer: A blowgun carved from wood

From Harak'eth, Frynnik receives a blowgun carved from a crimson red kind of wood that he cannot identify, decorated with golden symbols. He later obtains a whistle in the shape of a conch shell from Captain Ssorgon.
