In Edgar Rice Burroughs' *Savage Pellucidar*, the seventh and final installment of the Earth's center series, Emperor Dave Innes and his inventive friend Abner Perry face their greatest challenges yet. Having established an empire among the Stone Age Sarians, the duo struggles to introduce modern technology, which is often rejected or misunderstood by the primitive tribes. Perry's ambitious inventions, including a primitive aeroplane that initially flies backward and a second balloon, highlight the clash between advanced science and ancient tradition. The narrative takes a tragic turn when Dian the Beautiful, Innes's beloved mate, is carried away by a storm-tossed balloon, presumed dead. Devastated but undeterred, Innes and Perry embark on a perilous journey across the Terrible Mountains and the Lidi Plains to rescue her. Their trek tests their loyalty and courage as they encounter various tribes, including the copper-skinned Mezops, and face threats from wild beasts like the tarag. Along the way, Dian, disguised as a priestess, and her companion O-aa survive harrowing encounters, including a fierce battle against a giant tiger. The story culminates in a dramatic rescue where Dian is saved by the combined efforts of Innes, Perry, and a brave warrior named Hodon. Though some characters, like Gamba, remain unhappy, the reunion of the main group brings immense joy to Perry, who immediately begins inventing a submarine. The novel concludes with the survivors returning home to Sari, having endured a harrowing ordeal that solidified their bond and tested the limits of their civilization.
