Inside the dark squash, Saffy frowned, thinking about King Pink and the TFT and her parents, the Saffron king and queen. They didn’t want to find the Magical Creature Reserve or bring the dragon back to the Seven Kingdoms. They wanted the dragon to stop attacking barge captains. So did Saffy. So did Magellan. Saffy’s head started to hurt. She felt surrounded by targets, but didn’t know which one to aim at. They all seemed impossible to hit. She and Magellan agreed that the Sanction against the Saffron Kingdom should be lifted, didn’t they? Saffy wanted to be able to go to Archery Contests again someday. She also would like to be part of Thursdays for Thinking again. The crown princes could be annoying, but they were also the only people who really understood having to lead a kingdom some
