[ TT ] A knight finds a crashed spaceship and looks inside to find a giant scaly winged lizard that can breathe fire .

Sir Arturias approached the crater and, within it, the object. The thing had fallen in the night, screaming down from the heavens and smashing into the ground with a huge ball of flame. The next morning the King had sent Arturias to investigate, he approached, clad in his steel plate armour and with his longsword drawn, his shield close at hand. 
 
 The object shined as if it were steel, shaped like a flattened dome and vibrating. Arturias saw smoke still rising from the ground where the thing had impacted and saw a dull glow from the bottom of the disc. It shook again and this time as it creaked and groaned a segment of steel gave way, popping free to clatter to the ground. Inside there was darkness and Arturias steeled himself to approach the hole. 
 
 As he got nearer a gout of flame erupted from the hole with a roar followed by the green scaly foot of some devil-beast. Arturias jumped back and avoided both flame and claw and steadied himself. Slowly something began emerging from within, more green scaly skin came hauling itself out of the object, a head, pointed with a snout that seemed to be wreathed in smoke, wings like a giant bat and four legs. The body ended in a great serpentine tail which whipped this way and that. 
 
 Arturias summoned up his courage and advanced on the beast, swinging his sword in a high arc the bringing it up to guard. The beast roared again, flame jetting into the air and swiped at Arturias with a clawed foot. Arturias parried it with his shield and slashed at the offending limb, black blood spurting from the beast where he had cut it. Another swing of the creature's foot knocked him into the dirt some one hundred yards away and Arturias mounted his steed and rode for the Castle. This fight could not be won alone...
