"What?" said Fred in surprise. "I never heard of a curse like that." "It
was cast
on me by the evil Sir John, who has dabbled in the black arts," replied
the warrior
princess. "I was once betrothed to
him, but
when I found out his true nature I broke off our engagement. The curse was
his revenge."
"That's terrible," Fred sympathised. "Well, it could have been worse.
Supposing he had cursed
me so I could not carry a sword? It's not much fun in the winter, though.
Anyway, the
curse is one of the reasons why I came to
the caverns to destroy the dragon. Rumour has it that any curse can be
removed if the victim's skin
is smeared with the blood of a freshly killed dragon. Now, let us proceed
with the quest.
And please keep your eyes open for anything that I might use as a weapon.
The dragon took my
sword, of course, when he chained me up."
