[ WP ] As a dragon of innumerable age you have guarded your gold horde for millennium . Many heroes have come with long speeches on how they will slay you , the great evil , none finish . However this one is odd.He throws a coin on your stash , looks you in the eyes and says `` I have a proposition for you . ''

`` He- Hello, big dragon.'' a little girl muttered, after she threw a small coin, that won ’ t even buy you a bed and a beer in a dirty village tavern. `` I have a popro- a troposi- a pro-'' 
 
 `` A proposition you mean, little one.'' I helped her, as she stumbled on the words. She was no older than 4 or 5 years old and her green eyes were wide in awe. `` What do you want?'' *This one could be amusing. It was n't the typical dull adventurer and her young flesh surely would be more tasteful than the old bones in metal armor there usually was. * 
 
 `` I wish for a share of your luxuries. Not much, only as much as I can carry.'' She lifted her slim arms, as if to prove I won ’ t be losing much. `` My big brother is sick and my papa ca n't pay the doctor for treatment.'' 
 
 *What!? I'm an Ancient, one of the old thirteen, not the social welfare. * `` And why should I grant you your wish?'' 
 
 
 `` Be- because you are bound to do so. Ricky told me of it. You have taken something that does n't belong to you. And as long as it is in your poss- possession, you are cursed.'' 
 
 *Oh now I see. * I thought, and started to giggle in amusement. 
 
 `` Waaah, you ca n't eat me, otherwise you will be cursed forever! Martin has promised it.'' She winced. Obviously she thought my giggles for angry growling. Let it be so. 
 
 *What an evil prank they have played on that little girl. But that does n't mean I can have some fun, too. * I thought, as an idea manifested in the back of my skull. 
 `` All right, little One. You can take as much as you can fit in your pocket, but promise me to lift the curse. I ca n't take it to live another centuries with that curse.'' I said followed by a bone shaking roar. 
 The girl, momentarily frozen in terror, started picking up coins, amulets and rings. 
 
 Her pockets bulged outwards as she turned to leave. As she was leaving she picked up the coin she brought and shouted `` I lift you from your curse, dragon. Thanks to you my brother will live.'' and started running for the exit. 
 `` You might be protected by our pact, but your village is not. Do n't tell anyone of this curse, or I will come down my mountain and hunt you all.'' I roared in pretended fury.'' With that she vanished from sight. *This will be fun* 
 
 
 
 
 A few days later, two boys and another girl entered my cave. Each one tossed a coin on my hoard `` You are cursed stupid dragon'' they shouted. `` We wish for all the gold we can carry.'' One of them pointed on a sack he was carrying. 
 `` Oh, is that so? Who of you is Ricky?'' 
 The boy with the sack froze in fear as he heard his name. `` That was an evil trick you played on that little girl. Has no one told you, not to play with fire?'' I said, as black smoke rose from my evil grin. 
 
 
 
 
 Indeed, children taste better than armored men.
