A Boy and His Dragon

Naomi was enjoying tea out in the garden with Miho and Winston, listening to Winston's stories about Baron when he was a little boy....

"Have you tried one of these?  They are amazing!"

"Well, not that one, but this cream puff looks delicious..."

"I can't even imagine how wonderful it would have been growing up with a dragon as a friend..."

"We had a lot of fun together," continued Winston. "Baron loved playing chess...."

"...so we'd often have a game..."

"But what he really wanted to do was fly...like me.  He was small and light enough for me to carry, but Miho wasn't too sure it would be safe, so only let us fly around the castle gardens at first..."

"Once she realized that we knew what we were doing, and that it was perfectly safe, we were allowed to go out on adventures together."

"We'd go flying over the countryside..."

"... stopping to watch any wildlife we'd come across..."

"Then off we'd go again..."

"Sometimes even as far as the distant ocean..."

"And most times we'd bring along some marshmallows..."

"Baron loved it when I'd roast marshmallows."

"...although sometimes they'd end up a little overdone."
