This is the beginning narration of the first of my Land Before Time: Guardian Chronicles, called "The First Guardian". It's pretty much like a mix between Dinotopia and LBT, but what happens is that a few humans were taken back in time to protect the Great Valley. Of course, it steps out of the boundaries of what LBT normally have. But you'd never know if the humans' presence would change the course of history, or if it is already written in time... This is all I have for the fic now, since it is far from complete. Please let me know what you guys think.
Oh, and Malte, I still have the email you sent me with the second fic you wrote. I never had the chance to read it, but I'll be sure to let you know when I finally read it.
The Land Before Time: Guardian Chronicles
"The First Guardian"
Eons ago, before the time of man, the earth was ruled by great beasts that ruled the land, the sea, and the sky. These beasts were called...the dinosaurs.
Even in the time of dinosaurs, life was dangerous. Famine, plague, drought, the changing elements, and even meat-eating dinosaurs, threatened the daily lives of these creatures. But in all the chaos most of the world faced, only one peaceful place was protected from the outside world...the Great Valley. A beautiful land of trees, plants, and clear water, the Valley is shielded from the Mysterious Beyond by a great wall of mountains. But sooner or later, these walls are bound to fall to a mysterious enemy hidden within the darkest shadows of the Mysterious Beyond...
Unknown even to the dinosaurs that live there, the Great Valley itself contains secrets unimagined. Deep within the rocks of the tallest mountain, lies a hidden chamber, created and infused with a power never seen by the worlds of both dinosaur and man, but is destined to cross the paths of the two species separated by over 65 million years...
Now the time comes for the first test to be taken, for the fate of the dinosaur world lies in the hands of the Guardians of the Great Valley...
