Lance is a special breed of dog that can teleport himself up to fifteen feet in any direction. Harrison and his friends found Lance as they hiked through the Aegean peninsula. Harrison took the chance of befriending the dog and the two have become inseparable.
Along their adventure, Harrison stumbled across Eekel, a chowiak, who managed to tangle himself in the roots of a bush. Eekel thanked Harrison for his help by giving him a mushroom with magical powers. Harrison ate the food and, after a short while, found that he had the ability to communicate with his canine friend. Lance has proven to be invaluable to his master on their journey to find the Treasure of the Land.
