He persuades Begga to travel with him to take a look and hopes to make friends and share understanding. Trouble is, Krobble and Begga look just like earthly dinosaurs. How will the 'Hoomans' react when they meet them? Can Krobble stop the enormous Begga from eating them? And will they accept his offer of peace?
