The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. The adventurous and the foolish would come across it from time to time.

How To Slay A Dragon
1. First, you must decide with absolute certainty that you wish to undertake your quest. Qualms may result in death. 2. Dress for the occasion. Perhaps a sturdy wardrobe made of flame retardant material would be the best choice (you may think this is obvious, but heroes are not always the most logical breed).
