Shadowgate

The story so far…

Lief, Barda and Jasmine have begun a secret quest to find and destroy the Four Sisters, evil creations of the Shadow Lord which are poisoning Deltora. To succeed, they must wake Deltora’s last seven dragons, which have been deep in enchanted sleep for centuries.

Deltora’s dragons were hunted almost to extinction by the Shadow Lord’s creatures, the seven Ak-baba. At last, only one dragon from each gem territory remained. To save them, Deltora’s most famous explorer, Doran the Dragonlover (known to the dragons as Dragonfriend), persuaded the seven to sleep until a king, wearing the magic Belt of Deltora, called them to wake. He made each dragon swear that it would not take advantage of another’s sleep to invade its territory.

The disappearance of the dragons allowed the Shadow Lord to put the Four Sisters in place. Only when the power of a dragon joins with the power of the gems in the Belt of Deltora, can the Sisters be destroyed.

The dragon of the topaz has been woken. With the help of a fragment of an ancient map and the dragon of the ruby, the companions have found and destroyed the Sister of the East, in Dragon’s Nest, near the coastal city of Broome.

In doing so, they found another map fragment, telling them that the second Sister is hidden in the far north, at a place called Shadowgate.
