Max in the giant's town

 The tree tops have now disappeared and they were flying above something that seems to be a giant's town. Max looked around astonishedly. He could see streets that were wider than his whole village, people whose little finger was bigger than Max himself and giant houses with yellow, white, pink and light blue walls.

The giant's town

 Suddenly Max heard a loud caw, as another black raven appeared, bigger than the one that still clutched Max in his iron claws and tried to steal Max away. For a moment, the claws around Max loosened a little and he grabbed the chance to wind out of the grasp, just when they flew over a rooftop with red tiles.  

The angry raven

Max managed to land in the roof rail, the puddles of water absorbing the impact of his fall. Quickly, he ducked under a fallen leaf and waited until both raven stopped looking out for him and flew away. 

Hiding under a fallen leaf

'That was exciting', Max thought and wondered what he should do next. 'I can't stay here the whole night. I should look out for some shelter'. 

He crawled out of his hiding and looked around. 

'There! A leafy bush on the ground, just next to the house he landed on. That would be perfect for the night. The bush would shelter him from prying eyes and it would be bouncily comfortable to lie on the big leaves.'

He quickly followed the roof rail and and began to climb down the rain water downpipe. 

Not long, still far above the ground, Max heard a gentle sob out of a window next to him. He looked up and saw a giant girl with pale skin and long red hair flattering in the wind, her green tear-filled eyes looking at him, wide in surprise. 

'Why are you crying?' Max asked taken aback. 

The girl looked shocked that he adressed her, then hurriedly wiped away her tears and spluttered: ' Who are you?'

 'My name is Max and I'm on a journey to discover the world.', Max answered, while carefully sliding onto the window sill. 'And who are you?'
