Suddenly, the dwarf leader took out a
sharp knife from the waist belt and pointed it at Gavin.
“Bring me to Tingland at once! This is an
order,” shouted him anxiously, forgetting about his appropriate attitude and
politeness.
Seeing that the leader behaved rudely,
Gavin was angry.
“You’ve no right to command me! You’re
just a dwarf!” Gavin cried loudly, rising on his feet quickly.
Hearing that, all the dwarfs were furious
about what he said. The leader ordered his little men to catch the two giants
at once and tie their hands with some thick ropes. However, the ropes were just
like threads for them. They gave an eye contact to each other
and cleverly pretended that they couldn’t move but waited for a golden chance
to escape.
When it
was sunset and they were seen by no one, Gavin and Amy loosened the rope easily
and escaped. They left the room and went towards the beach.
Suddenly,
they heard the leader crying. They quickly hid behind the tree and saw the leader
was drunk.
“Oh, my
dear sister Erica! I miss you so much after not seeing you for over 10 years.
Where have you been? What are you doing now? I hope the two giants I caught can
bring me to see you,” cried the leader miserably with tears.
Gavin
and Amy were curious about what they heard. So, they went back to the dwarfs’
home.
The
dwarfs were shocked to see them back. Some dwarfs appeared happy to know that
they were safe and free. They told them about the story of their leader and his
sister Erica.
