The Dragon's Escape

The Silent Treat

At last! The lock clicks open smoothly and without sound. It took all of your best lockpicking tricks learned from old picture books, but you finally manage to open the dragon's enclosure. No rusty screech to awaken the zoo guards, thanks to your clever hands. It’s time for the dragon to leave this boring zoo for good.

The dragon responds to its newly found freedom with an elegant leap into the night sky. There go its blisteringly bright wings, flame patterns glittering under the moonlight as it roars quietly, then takes flight. It turns back to you, a soundless thanks stuck in its golden eyes. It's the final glimpse you see before the dragon's joyful form disappears into the starry night, a neat clash of light glaring against dark in the far horizon. An unforgettable view that strikes your heart with joy because you helped set the dragon free, and that makes up for any trouble you might have from this adventure!
