Secret of the Blue Pouch

(Adventures in the Kingdom) (Volume 3)

By: Dian Layton

Secret of the Blue Pouch Seeker is about to go on a new kind of adventure and fight the greatest battle he has ever fought...but no one knows about it. No one knows what Seeker really wants. No one knows about the picture in the little white box. And no one knows about the... Fifteen Coins. Quickly hiding the little blue leather pouch underneath his mattress, Seeker ran out of the house, raced through the streets of Peace and Harmony, and came to a skidding halt at the foot of the Straight and Narrow Path. Seeker didn't realize that a nasty little dragon had watched him hide the pouch and was now rubbing his claws together in delight. "I've found it!" the dragon whispered. "I've found the something...the something that Seeker will want more than he wants the King. Soon the other children will follow him right back to the CARNALville of Selfishness where they belong!" The nasty little dragon rubbed his claws together in anticipation, picked his nose thoughtfully, and laughed a quiet but very wicked laugh.

In Search of Wanderer

Seeker 4

By: Dian Layton

Through the window of the Secret Place, Seeker and his sister, Moira, discover the truth. Their father, Wanderer, has not been seen for two years. His disappearance was a mystery. Now Seeker and his sister must do all they can to rescue Wanderer... before it's too late! Two incredibly ugly dragons snarled as they came to stand by Wanderer. The dragons laughed viciously as they pulled the chains tighter, but Wanderer didn’t seem to notice. He was almost asleep... When Seeker saw the awful creatures beside his father, courage filled his heart! He would do battle in the name of the King! Seeker began to roll up his sleeves when he felt a gentle hand on his shoulder. "No, Seeker," said the King, “Not this time.” Moira turned to the King in desperation. “But King, that’s our father! We can’t just leave him there! Isn’t there something we can do to help him?!” The King looked at Seeker and Moira’s earnest young faces and nodded. “Yes. There is something you can do...”

Armor of Light

Seeker 6

By: Dian Layton

Through the Window of the Secret Place the King shows Seeker and his friends the Land of Darkness. They see a child called NoName who is being held captive by two terribly disgusting dragons: Anger and Abuse. The King gives Seeker the Armor of Light and sends him to bring NoName... out of the Darkness and into the Light! Suddenly, the air became cool, the sky darkened, and as if appearing from nowhere, the dragons came raging up the hill toward the two boys. And it was then that Seeker realized he had forgotten to put on the Armor of Light... The fiery green breath of Anger and Abuse smelled as though they had never, ever brushed their teeth and their breath burned Seeker's heart as they snarled past him toward NoName. They tightened the chains with a determined pull, and then, with terrifying fierceness, the dragons roared at Seeker. Seeker closed his eyes tightly and cried, "King! King, please help me! I’m so sorry for not putting on my armor..." “Then put it on now,” said a familiar voice. Seeker wheeled around in surprise. There, in the middle of the Darkness, stood the King.

Rescued From the Dragon

Seeker 2

By: Dian Layton

Near the forests of Laws Forgotten, a dragon rules a village called Greed. For many years, the dragon has controlled the people and told them lies about the King. The King needs someone to go to the village Greed and tell the people the truth. The King needs someone to conquer the great dragon and rescue the people. The King needs...an army! "It looks like that gate is the only entrance to the village; I'll try to sneak around the dragon..." The Children called after him in anxious whispers, “Be careful, Seeker!” Seeker moved bravely and carefully toward the dragon. Closer and closer he went, until he was almost close enough to touch the great beast. Seeker held his nose and tried to keep from getting sick. The dragon’s breath was terrible and he smelled as though he had never, ever brushed his teeth; and never, ever taken a bath. Seeker pinched his nose tightly and began to step toward the entrance gate of the village. But suddenly... ...The dragon stood up with a loud and vicious ROAR!

Carriers of the Kingdom

Seeker 7

By: Dian Layton

Imagine an invisible Kingdom that is very, very real. It is a place where you can discover the Great King and His castle with secret towers and mysterious underground passageways. It is a place where you are invited to experience an exciting, life-changing adventure! But there is one problem...one BIG problem...dragons! When the King opened the castle's tower window of the Secret Place high above the beautiful Kingdom, He pointed out to Seeker and the other kids a distant land—the Land of Laws Forgotten and the Valley of Lost Dreams. Crouched in the background, ever present but never seen, were disgusting, smelly, slobbering, nose-picking dragons that ruled people throughout the World Beyond the Kingdom. Pride, Greed, and Corruption lurked in the shadows breathing nasty dark thoughts into the minds of the people, causing trouble throughout the land. The Kingdom children looked up at the good King as He opened the Great Book filled with truth and goodness. "I need you to take my Kingdom to the people and children there. My Kingdom of Joy and Peace is within you—because you all really wanted to know the truth." Even knowing that dragons prowled around the land, Seeker courageously announced to his friends, “Come on everybody! Let’s go! We must tell them that the King has not forgotten them—He has been waiting for us to carry His Kingdom to them!”

Seeker's Great Adventure

Seeker 1

By: Dian Layton

Imagine an invisible Kingdom that is very, very real. It is a place where you can discover the Great King and his castle with secret towers and mysterious underground passageways. It is a place where you are invited to experience a live-changing adventure! But there is one problem ... One BIG Problem Dragons. "Look out, Seeker! Dragons!" Seeker turned to face the dragons. They had gotten up from the ground, thrown off their clown disguises, and were now rushing toward Seeker in full-force dragon rage. Nut Seeker wasn't afraid. He remembered the words from the song; he remembered the powerful weapon. He stood very tall and yelled, “In the King’s name, you can get out of here!” The effect was amazing. It was like an invisible lightning bolt hit the dragons. They flew backwards through the air and landed with a loud thump. They held their bodies and rolled on the ground, screaming with pain. Seeker grabbed his friends by the hand and whirled back toward the Straight and Narrow Path. “Come on everybody! Let’s go!”

The Dreamer

Seeker 5

By: Dian Layton

Seeker's older sister, Moira, has dreams and longings in her heart about the future. Trapper and Fantasy convince her that only in the World Beyond the Kingdom will her dreams come true. But they have lied to Moira. She doesn’t realize that the path she has chosen will end in the Valley of Lost Dreams. The Doorkeeper didn’t stop the children with his usual question, "Do you REALLY want to see the King?" Instead, he quickly opened the door just in time for the army of children to race through. They slid down the shining hallway – not for fun today, but just because it was faster than walking – and flung themselves through the door of the Throne Room. “King, King!” Seeker cried out. “Moira left the Kingdom!” “I know,” the King said quietly. “You KNOW?!” Seeker exclaimed. “Then why don’t you do something?! You have to go and get her and make her come back!” The King shook his head. “No, Seeker. Not until she really wants me to.”

The Talking Tree Forest

Seeker 8

By: Dian Layton

Imagine an invisible Kingdom that is very, very real. It is a place where you can discover the Great King and His castle with secret towers and mysterious underground passageways. It is a place where you are invited to experience an exciting, life-changing adventure! But there is one problem...one BIG problem...dragons! Seeker was sailing on the blue waters of the Ocean of Optimism with his dad. He loved sailing with him and hearing his exciting stories, especially ones about the Talking Tree Forest. Years ago, the King had saved Seeker's dad from the Island of Despair where he lived, chained up by the awful, mean, and nasty dragons. But today was a perfect day of sailing. One day the King sent Seeker on a mission to the Talking Tree Forest. He was excited! The King cautioned, "You may not like everything you find there. The forest has many dangers." Before long, Seeker’s fun journey turned to being caught up in a Sands of Sorrow tornado where he met Grief face to face. His feelings were all bumping into each other—along with swirling dragon-breathing lies. Does the King save Seeker and his friends who are lost in the forest? Will they find their way back to the Straight and Narrow Path that leads to the Kingdom of Joy and Peace?
