Talking to Dragons
“Every dragon from inside the Enchanted Forest had to be there, and quite a few from the Mountains of Morning as well. They were spread out in all directions, so I couldn’t even see the ground. The forest encircled the castle at a distance, and there seemed to be something wrong about the trees. I couldn’t tell what, though, and besides, I had other things to worry about right then. Two hundred dragons, for instance.
I stepped forward and bowed carefully in all directions. One of the first thing...s Mother taught me about dragons was that they expect a new arrival to make the first move. They always allow you one chance to convince them that you’re too polite or too important to eat. I didn’t think I could convince two hundred dragons that I was particularly important, especially since I didn’t believe it myself, so I was going to have to rely on being polite. I took a deep breath.
“Sirs and madams, I apologize most profoundly for intruding upon you in this fashion, and I hope we have not inconvenienced you in any way,”MoreLess
