Coward or Realist?

"It's hardly worth chasing after him," the dragon decided. "But don't be too hard on him, Astra. It was obvious that he was out-matched, and he evidently realised that discretion is the better part of valour. Better a live coward - or it would be kinder to say a live realist - than a dead hero."

"You said just now that you had other plans for me. Would you mind telling me what they are? I've been your prisoner for what seems like weeks now, but all you've done is come to check up on me every now and then. When are you going to put these plans of yours into effect?"

1. "For now I'd sooner leave you in the dark - or at least in the very dimly lit tunnel." "Oh very funny."
2. "I'm going to start putting them into effect right now."
3. "That's what I came to see you about. You are going to be rejoining your sisters." "You're letting me go!?" "Er no. I've captured your sisters."
4. Before the dragon can reply, to their surprise Fred returns.
