— In a kingdom far, far away lived a dragon. He would periodically fly in for tribute. He didn’t demand much, but the king was tired of him. He wanted to give him this, then that. The king sent his loyal knight to fight the dragon. The knight arrived at the dragon’s castle, but the castle had no gate. The knight rode around the castle, but still couldn’t find the gate. He rode off into the nearest forest, heard a rumble, noise. The dragon flew in and shouted loudly: “Open the gates, the master has arrived!” The secret gates opened. The dragon entered the castle, and the gates closed.
The knight thought about it and decided to see what would happen in the morning.
In the dragon shouted loudly again: "Open the gates, the master has arrived!" The gates opened.
The knight decided to try it himself. He rode up to the castle and shouted the password. He rode into the castle, found what the king had sent for, and rode away.
