It was only as the strange sun was about to set that Zaleb spotted what she was looking for — a green meadow filled with white flowers. And in the middle of it there was an Earth monster!
This Earth monster was as pale and bare as the ones in the pictures that Zaleb's grandfather had brought home, and it really did only have two eyes and two thin arms like sticks.
It's eyes had an odd wet shimmer about them and there was a huge ugly bump in the middle of its face. But it wasn't as scary as Zaleb had imagined. In fact, she was a little bit disappointed.
