The Lost Legion

 As Lian woke up she saw a reflection of sunlight on a snowy summit in the distance. Ivo continued driving the vehicle that was already running along increasingly narrow and rocky mountain roads. In fact the girl realized that what had awakened her was just one of the jumps when the vehicle stepped on a rock that had then rolled downhill. She looked at the man and saw the weariness on his face.

 "Oh! Did you wake up. Leave it, I can still go a little further.” 


 As was her custom Lian ignored Ivo's response and indicated a widening of the path, which on the left side showed a dangerous precipice. 


 "Stop the car there. I'll replace you at the steering wheel.”
