Summary Anwen wakes, realizing today she's supposed to hike up to the Ruined City. She gets up and gets ready. Anwen meets the others going on the hike in front of City Hall. Tyler shows up and gives them the rules of conduct for their day trip. Courtney makes fun of Daphne and is shut up by Tyler. The truck taking them to the start of the trail arrives and Tyler arranges for Anwen to ride inside instead of in the open back with the others. Anwen and her group arrive at the start of the trail and they all climb out of the truck. Tyler directs their attention to the view across the road where Lake Wyvern can be seen. He points out the Dragon Isle to Anwen, who is a bit awed. He then teases her about dragons before getting serious about the hike once more. He gives them all one last chance to back down from the excursion before heading out. Ready to hike, the group crosses a small stream to get to the actual trail. No one helps Anwen across the running water, though Tyler keeps an eye on her. They begin their hike into the nearby canyon.
