I was on my way to work on my pet dragon and this old looking fellow came out of nowhere and said that the quest had begun and I thought what quest. So I followed him, and he flew to the lake and he is ad to me it is in the lake. What is in the lake and these noises started so I followed the sound and it took me to the middle of the lake and there was a man on a boat and he offered me a delicious meal and it was a double burger. The man on the boat said it is in the cave, so I went to the cave. My dragon and I went into the cave, and the stone had this moss on it and it had a weird feeling like you were standing on a sponge. Then out of nowhere came a big dragon the size of an aeroplane.
My dragon flu to the other one like it was it the mother and I discovered out it was. Lucky, I had another saddle and a rope in my bag. I settled the other dragon and we went deeper into the cave. The big dragon resisted and then I looked behind the big dragon and there were eggs so I placed them in my bag. The dragons and I went deeper into the cave, and we found the dragon city. Only dragons can enter the dragon city, so I found some scales that matched my dragons. I got my armour out of my bag and stuck scales to my armour, and I started to fly my dragon and a beacon of light, so I flew my dragon to it. There was something that looked like a human, so I went to talk to her. She started running so I chased after she and she jumped off a ledge. She started to fly and then I looked at her suit and she had added wings. I had a jersey in my bag, so I cut it up and stitched it to my armour and jumped off and then one of the eggs fell so instead of following her I went to go get the egg was just about to hit the ground and she caught it. She looked at me and said here you go, she gave me the egg and told me to go to the old sawmill.

In the story, the lake by Ray Bradbury A man visits a lake where a childhood trauma happened. I think a memorable idea in the story is if you hold onto the memories of the past it is like saying if you get too close to the flames someone will get burnt.
This idea was memorable to me because it reminds me to live in the present because it is a gift so you should live your best life while you have it. The part of the story that I think matches is when it says “Like a memory, a train works both ways. A train can bring rushing back all those things you left behind so many years before”. This quote means you can have good memories and bad memories and anyone of those memories can come back.

Why was Germany hit the Hardest During the Great Depression?
During the Great Depression Germany as a country was hit harder than most other countries. The main reason the great Depression started was that the American stock collapsed. This collapse affected the whole world. The Wall Street Crash of 1929 triggered a worldwide downturn. The recall of US loans, which led Germany's economy to collapse, caused it to suffer more than any other country. Unemployment skyrocketed, poverty levels skyrocketed, and Germans grew desperate.
