Once Upon a Time (2)

After a long journey, Prince Gale and Ray reached a city in Foggy Kingdom. A guard stopped them and asked who they were.

Once Prince Gale and Ray had explained their mission, the guard said, "This city is all that remains of Foggy Kingdom." A monster has destroyed the other cities. We came here to weather the storm, hoping the monster will go away."

The guard took them to Queen Misty, Foggy Kingdom's young but capable ruler. The guard said she had a heart as pure as the driven snow. She had been a ray of sunshine during these difficult times.

Prince Gale and Ray told her their story.

Queen Misty replied, "I'd like to help. But the stone's magic is our city's best defense against the monster."

The prince offered to kill the monster in exchange for the stone. The queen agreed and gave them food for their quest.

Prince Gale told Ray to stay safe in the city. But Ray answered, "I'm not a fair-weather friend. I won't abandon you."

Teaching Topic: Chatting about the Weather (聊天氣)
西方人聊天喜歡聊天氣,
天氣weather這個字是不可數名詞,
不可以說 a weather, 或many weathers,
但通常都不會用到weather,
通常的問法是: what's it like outside?
另外講到天氣會用到 supposed to be: 照理說...
因為氣象報告通常是不準確的,
所以會說,
It supposed to be sunny.
