This 'foot' belongs to a 3,000 year old dragon, Zorak. Now Zorak is quite annoyed that he inadvertently let himself be seen by a human, and he only has one way of dealing with this, otherwise he'll have to face the wrath of the dragon elders.

Will they make it or will the Red Alliance finally get their dream come true? Will Basil ever see his poor mum again?
