Waiting for the Dragon's Next Move
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 14923
|
There seemed little point in trying to escape, so they waited to see what
the
dragon would do next. "If I'd appreciated just how powerful the dragon was,
I'd never have gone on this quest," Fred said. "If anyone back in Allaria
had known he was a mage as
well as a dragon, they weren't saying. And when you disappeared some months
ago, Exotica, nobody realised that the dragon had snatched you."
"One night I went to sleep in my own bed, and in the morning I woke to find myself in the Southern Caves. He must have grabbed me with a spell. And I was just one of many. [172] At least things have been more interesting since I met you. Being chained up was no fun, of course, and before that I was one of the drying and polishing team." "Drying and polishing?" "After the dragon bathed, which he does every day in a lake deep in the caves, we would have to dry every inch of him with towels, then rub oil into his skin and polish his scales. That would take four of us several hours, as there was a lot of dragon to cover."
