“Surely my reciting the Old High Dolomite passages would not invoke
enchantment?" asked Checkers.
Just then, there was a great roar heard from not too far away. Fred leapt up, grabbed his sword and headed in the direction of the sound, with Checkers not too far behind. Before long, the pair found themselves in a large cavern. What they saw there was horrifying. Belboz was dead, his mangled corpse lying against one wall. The death of the old necromancer was nothing compared to the sight of the Dragon…who was looking right at them! This was it. The pinnacle of Lord Fred’s quest! It was his destiny to slay the Dragon, and he would do so…or die trying. He prepared to do battle. Suddenly, both Fred and Checkers heard a voice in their heads. Stop, dragonslayers! I am not the dragon you seek! My name is Princess Astra of Aqualaria. I was held prisoner by the Dragon but somehow our powers were reversed. That body there is him in human form, slain by none other than yours truly. ”Perhaps what this Dragon says is true, and this strange state of affairs was caused by my reciting of the Old High Dolomite passages?” asked Checkers. ”Or perhaps the Dragon is trying to deceive us with lies!” said Fred.
