'Maggie's job is to guard the most FARAWAY edges of the kingdom. She's not scared of any creature, big or small, even the SCARY ones.

'The problem is that other creatures are sometimes SCARED of Maggie. Really, all she wants is to travel the world and have new ADVENTURES, but that's hard when people run away at the sight of her.

'One day, when green lightning starts FLASHING in the sky, Maggie knows she has to get to the nearest village and raise the alarm before the storm hits and DESTROYS everything.
