0:00.0	Hi, my name is Amber, I'm eight years old. Welcome to the Makedup stories. Join the podcast.
0:25.6	Hello, and welcome to Makeup. I'm your host, Amanda. Today we're finishing our story, Patrick and the Moving Island.
0:29.6	Last time, Patrick found a mysterious island in the middle of Lake Wanaka.
0:34.6	When he explored it, he met Ruah, a Moa-sized Hadrosaur, and Horatio,
0:40.3	a Capibara. But the island wasn't just strange, it was restless. Rua believed that
0:47.3	it was trying to return to a magical place it had once belonged to. So together, they built a giant sail, and when the wind caught it,

2:01.4	Birds circled ahead like scouts.

2:14.2	spirals, stars, and symbols that looked like constellations.
