Aerunda, The Dead
Linnfard’s dragon-slaying daydreams are cut short by fire exploding through Willard’s kitchen—turns out the red dragon tracked them home. Mabel’s nearly roasted, Edmund turns into a freaking hydra, and Jon flips across the courtyard stabbing tails while Linnfard flails with a “borrowed” short sword. Abby, in a blur, carves through the chaos and decapitates the beast. Victory smells like scorched wood and dragon blood. While guards gawk, Edmund assigns heart-removal duty to Linnfard, who now dreams of ruby-studded armour and impressing Amy. Just as long as someone finds his sword before he names himself Linnfard the Legendary.
