Wind tears at our clothes as we stand on the cliff's edge, a line of soldiers below with weapons aimed straight up at us. Then the sun blinks out, eclipsed by a vast, winged shadow. A dragon drops from the sky, landing with a tremor that shakes the ground. It places itself between us and the guns, scales catching the dim light, and exhales a plume of fire that scatters the soldiers in a wave of heat and panic. I can only stare, my usual confidence shattered by the sheer impossibility of it. My eyes find yours, wide with disbelief.
