      One night in a tavern, amongst sleeping drunkards and music coming from a old bard in the corner. A young fellow no older than 19, was boasting about his many adventures and treasures he has recieved. "And then one time, I was traveling to Leskumo from my most recent quest  when suddenly, out of nowhere, a giant dragon came from the sky and spewed its fiery breath at me." This young adventure tells everyone listening. He holds a long pause. "What happens next?" A gilly says listening and hanging on every word. "Yes yes please tell us." The bartender implies.

     "I drew up my Shield Of Repellance , and held my ground." He says as he stands in shield up position in front of the bar table. All the gilly's listening oohed and awed at this sight. "Then I drew my Sword of Hades and consumed the flames of death into the sword's blade." The adventurer hesitated for a second. " I then bellowed at the dragon." "You are but a puny little fly compared to me, you can't possibly beat me." The adventurer recalls. 

     Everyone stops and listens in this time. The gilly's stopped catering, the drunkards woke up, even the old bard stopped playing just to listen. Silence falls all throughout the tavern. The adventurer turns to see everyone focused on him. He continues his story.
     
     "The dragon spoke with a foreign tongue but somehow i could understand what it said." "The beast said to me, what a laugh you are if you lose the weapon and shield then what are you but a petty little human?" Says the adventurer. Everyone laughed at this. " on the contary you fould creature, I may be human but with this weapon and shield I can easily defeat you." The adventurer yells out. Everyone cheers at this. "You foul human the dragon roars and raised its head." Says the adventurer. 

     "Your throat is open you beast, and without hesitation I lunged at the dragon and stabbed my sword deep into his throat." The adventurer boasts. Everyone lets out a roar of excitement. "With a single blow I slew my first dragon, that day and walked along happily to Leskumo." The adventurer ends his tale. 

     "That was excellent good sir." Says the bartender. "Do you have anymore tales?" The bartender also says. "Yes sir, but it is late and I must go." The adventurer exclaims. "Please stay and tell one more story." Says a gilly. "No I must go. I need my rest." The weary adventurer says back as he leaves, the tavern. "Oh what a bunch of idiots that lot, whats say you Sebal?" The adventurer says as he looks at the person whom approached to his right.

    I think so, Gabel, I mean look at all this gold and valuables we took while you were boasting about one of your tales." Subal laughs heartly. "All in a days work Subal, all in a days work." Gabel replies as they go along there merry way to the next town in hopes of richer folk.
