Jaxon the Griffin Rider lives in the Elemental Sanctuary. He is a small boy. He has a dear friend. His friend is a griffin. Griffin is gentle and kind. Griffin has soft feathers. Griffin can fly high. Griffin loves to soar. Jaxon holds tight. Jaxon feels brave. Jaxon and Griffin love to play. They gallop across meadows. They dance with the breeze. They hum a happy tune. They sing as they fly. They touch the sun. They brush the clouds. They feel so free. One morning Jaxon finds a glowing gem. The gem is blue. The gem is very special. It makes tiny lights sparkle. Jaxon shows the gem to Griffin. Griffin’s eyes shine. They smile at each other. Jaxon feels joy. Griffin nuzzles Jaxon. Suddenly the gem slips away. It falls and rolls away. Jaxon gasps. Griffin calls out. They watch the gem vanish. They must find it. They begin to search. Jaxon and Griffin look in tall grass. They look under stones. They look near flowers. They look by shining streams. They look under fallen logs. They look among bright mushrooms. They look on smooth hills. They look around every tree. They look under green ferns. They look inside hollow trunks. They look at busy ants. They ask the ants. They ask the crickets. They ask the butterflies. They ask the birds. No one sees the gem. Jaxon feels tired. Griffin feels tired. They rest in a soft clearing. They rest on warm grass. They watch the sky. They watch the clouds. They think and they plan. Jaxon says, “We will not give up.” Griffin nods. They rise and continue. They climb a small hill. They fly across a silent lake. They glide over a sparkling waterfall. They chase ripples on the water. They hum a gentle song. The lake whispers back. Jaxon listens. Griffin listens. They hear a faint glimmer. They follow the sound. They reach a hidden cave. The cave glows softly. Inside they find the blue gem. It sits on a smooth stone. Jaxon runs forward. Griffin lands beside him. Jaxon lifts the gem. It sparkles with light. Jaxon feels wonder. Griffin feels proud. They smile wide. They carry the gem outside. They step into sunshine. They dance with joy. They flap their wings and leap. They fly back to home. They reach the Elemental Sanctuary. They see warm faces waiting. They show the gem to the friends. Everyone cheers. The gem shines and sparkles. Jaxon holds the gem close. Griffin nuzzles him with love. Jaxon says, “Thank you, my brave friend.” Griffin tilts his head and smiles. The sun sets slowly. The sky glows in pink and gold. Jaxon and Griffin settle down. They rest on soft grass. They close their eyes. They dream of new adventures. They know they are brave together. They know wonders await. The end.
