Desert Song Quotes

“The mountain lion is still waiting at the mouth of Aria’s canyon, but he is becoming suspicious. He is unsure that his plan of attack is the best one. He heard us coming down Aria’s canyon and now wonders why he can no longer hear our voices or our movement. He does not know there is another way but soon he will come to look for us. If we are lucky, we will be in the main canyon by then, already racing for the desert. And once we are on the desert, Aria will follow her instructions. She will gallop to safety with Sophie on her back and Melody racing behind her. She has promised to leave me if she has to. She wants the same thing I do: she wants Melody and Sophie to be safe. But first we must make it to the floor of the main canyon. The mountain lion must not catch us on the cliff-side trail. Yet one slip, one missed step, and any one of us could fall to our death.”
