| The old knight had begun to glow lighting up the clearing as though it was daylight! There was an intense flash of light and the old knight was no longer there, he had transformed into a Red Dragon! It was then that I heard the Green Dragon approaching through the trees. The light that preceded this transformation would have been visible from a considerable distance even in the dense forest. I moved further back into the dark. I did not want to be noticed when these dragons began their battle. I need not have worried. There was no battle. There was what appeared to be a conversation but then, who understands the language of dragons? This was my opportunity to slip away quietly before either of them noticed that I was there. I went back to the village to wait for the old knight's return. |
