The dragon named Horse perched on the roof of Ted the Off-White’s tower and tried to look as menacing as a dragon named Horse could possibly look. Tlod the Dwarf sat on the dragons back and held his hands over his ears.

“Gods! Did you have to roar that loud?” he shouted.

“I was striking fear into their hearts!” Horse replied.

“And striking me deaf at the same time. I’m already dead – give me a break.”

The fire elemental appeared in front of them. “IT IS TOO LATE TO SAVE YOUR FRIEND . TED THE OFF -WHITE IS FINISHING HIM OFF AS WE SPEAK .”

“Save…our friend? He is still alive, Horse! We can still save him!” shouted Tlod.

“YOU’LL HAVE TO GET THROUGH THE TOWER ’S DEFENSES FIRST ,” the elemental boomed.

“And what might that be?” Horse asked.

“UM…ME I GUESS !” the elemental answered.

“No problem, then,” Horse said as he hiked his hind leg and urinated on the elemental, extinguishing it forever.

“Did that seem too easy to you?” Tlod asked.

“Yeah…a little,” replied the dragon.
