The dragon bared its teeth in what might have been intended as a smile. "I
am not a cruel dragon, Lord Frederigo. I do not kill the knights who fail.
I use my magic to remove all the aggression from their natures, so that
they will no longer be any threat to me and can become my servants."
"What about Princess Astra?" Fred asked. She still stood by the altar, motionless. She had stopped reciting from the book, but seemed to be in a trance. "Oh, she will be my servant too," the dragon said off-handedly. "In fact, effectively she already is, as you have seen, if not exactly willingly." "Without having taken the Test? That hardly seems fair." "But the Test is for knights," the dragon pointed out. "She doesn't qualify." "But she's as brave and noble as any knight."
