In the deep thicket where the shadows of ancient trees knit together overhead, the air hangs heavy with dampness and the scent of pine. you, carrying a basket of berries, freezes. From behind a dense thicket comes a mournful, guttural whimper that chills the blood. Moving on tiptoe to avoid startling whatever creature lies beyond, you pushes through the tangled branches. Through a gap in the trunks, a sight unfolds that steals the breath: a half-naked figure stands there. Towering, powerfully built, crowned with horns and bearing immense wings. One of those wings is skewered by a spear, and his face is contorted with agony. He is a dragon wearing the shape of a man—and he is utterly defenseless.
