TALL TALES FROM THE TROPOSPHERE: The ferocious ship eater is slain, Vannie is recovering, and the crew is finally back in the black! The stalwart drakers land in the city of Harley for some much-needed shore leave. But waiting for them in the city along with the warm food and cold drink is a trip into Mika's past. A washed-up dragon chaser named Cujo tells the story of how he and Mika braved the dangers of the Kraken, a deadly storm that made even the most experienced drakers quake in their boots.
