We could leave gaps for you, so you'll just have to catch up later, maybe. So some sections which are allocated for Red you can skip Hana, and write up some time later, in months or a years time (whenever we actually finish the book).

I like the Sandbuster idea. A good tie-in to dragons and that we live on the beach. Maybe dragons have been escaping the Hidden World?

Also, the Whispering Death egg-shells would be the same eggs that were hatched in Riders/Defenders of Berk. It's kind of a call back to the series.

I also would like the idea of like Nik just wandering over this one section of the beach, next to a cliff face saying, "The entrance should be right here!" but he doesn't know where, and it's actually an underwater cave where you have to swim towards the cliff face and dive under, before getting to an above water cave inside.

My idea of a Journey to find THW (without much thinking into)

1. Find the entrance to the Whispering Death tunnels which is near the beach, or through an underwater cave beneath the sea.

2. Go through the caves through a labyrinth of tunnels using Riley's incomplete maps. (They aren't actually Riley's maps. They were maps given to him by his mother, even though Riley didn't know what they were for.)

3. Find tunnels that aren't mapped out in 'Riley's Map', and journey deeper into the tunnels.

4. Return home in time for the curfew, sleep and go out tomorrow.

5. Repeat Steps 1, 2, 3 and 4, discovering new tunnels and cryptic clues.

5a) We find out a Sandbuster Cave because two people fell inside.

5b) We escape the Sandbuster cave.

5c) While going through the scorched forest, we see these HUGE circular patterns on the floor. We investigate it, and find it's been scorched into the grounds. - A Typhoomarang.

5d) Etc...

6. We find stuff like Mildew's cave where there are heaps of Whispering Death eggs. We don't know what they are. We also find Whispering Death scales, which are similar to Cora's other scale. We don't know they are Dragon Scales though, but Cora has suspicions.

7. We face like these scary _________ in the cave. Maybe a pack of wild dogs, to allude to Cora's old section. Cora shows us her skill, we all do, to defeat the wild dogs which attack us. We find other dogs which are just scared, and Cora comforts them. (Cora = Pet Dog?)

8. We finally find a tunnel which went a LOT deeper down. We began going down it for a bit, but then realised it was too long. We did Step 4.

9. We plan a night to sneak out, and we go down the really deep cave. We follow it down and we discover this lush new, green world! It had long pillars, purplish rocks, and DRAGONS!

10. You win! You got to The Hidden World. Now collect your very own dragon.
