Geeble made it to the top of Tall Mountain and was met by Dramfor, King of the great birds.
"To what pleasure do I owe this visit," asked Dramfor, who had allready spotted Geeble climbing up the mountain a day earlier with his great eyesight."
"It is a pleasure to see you Dramfor, but that's not what brought me here. I flee from evil to buy time that I may later destroy it....and I need your help," Geeble replied.
"Always glad to help a good friend. What do you need?"
"I need you to take me to the top summit of Tall mountain. I need a safe place to open the books of Shrykul. A place that will not be disturbed, and a place that ratz will not be."
"Yes yes, I heard that ratz were taken over by the eniemy. Hmm books of Shrykul," Dramfor mumbled to himself. "You have my help Geeble. We can leave whenever you like"
"The earlier the better."
Geeble climbed onto Dramfor's back and away they flew to the height of Tall mountain. Once they made it, Geeble started a fire as Dramfor flew away and came back with meat to cook upon the fire. Being at the top of the world let Geeble feel more at ease and not as burdoned. He and Dramfor told tales to each other a good portion of the night and then they both got some good rest.
Next morning, it was time to open the books of Shrykul. Geeble opened the chest to see a large book made of stone and metal. It looked heavy, but was actually light as a feather when Geeble pulled it out of the chest.
"You're makng history," Dramfor said excitedly to Geeble.
"Here we go," said Geeble as he slowly opened the book.
Then, as Geeble opened the book, he was pulled inside and the book slammed shut.
