Mikey in Travisland: Chapter 8-Travis the Wise Man of the Mountain

Mikey finally made it to the abode of Travis the Wise Man of the Mountain, on the lower south side of Mount Wisdom, in the Kingdom of Joy and Happiness. The air was comfortably cool, birds sang, the sunlight streamed golden, the flowers and butterflies were like gems. Travis the Wise Man of the Mountain and his neighbors had their tranquility shattered when the Mikey strolled up to them.

Mikey: Hi. My name is Mikey and I’m looking for the grandfather of Emperor Travis the Kind (Mikey was not averse to name-dropping) Travis the Wise Man of the Mountain.

All pointed their fingers to Travis the Wise Man of the Mountain.

Travis: What can I do for you strange Sir?   Mikey: Do you know how to leave Travisland?

Travis: Why would anyone wish to do that? Are you the victim of a spat? Or are you being chased by a big black cat? Or is your blood being sucked by a vampire bat arisen from an empty beer vat?

Mikey: Well I see where your descendants get their mastery of poetry!

Travis: Indeed. I was the seed.  I have heard of a way to leave Travisland.  You must follow the golden-brick road till it ends beside the Mountain of Glory. On the side of the mountain, beside a mirror and before the hidden exit is the Holy Monogram of Travisland. Press the buttons in the correct order and you will have a rainbow day.  That is all I can say or I’ll have hell to pay. Now be on your way and leave today!

Mikey: Thank you kind Sir! Now I can leave Travisland and go back to West Virginia, Mountain Mama. If I fail to leave, can I come back here?

Travis: Oh no my dear. The question is quite queer. For the dragon there will be woken after 3 failed attempts to leave. The dragon will find you quite tasty without peer.

Mikey left to continue to the Mountain of Glory down the golden-brick road.
