Prince Jargo

Prince Jargo was on a mission to slay the evil green dragon of the kingdom of Wondrous Land which consisted of people, kindly dragons, dragonflies, huffle-winks and the mean-spirited green dragon, his father King Andro insisted it was time for young Prince Jargo to be initiated into adulthood and prove his worthiness and valor for the entire kingdom. King Andro told his son that he needed proof that the green dragon was slain by having him return with part of its scaly tail and heartless heart which would be on display before all the residents of their land to celebrate Jargo's courageous feat and the change of his status to manhood. The journey to the cave where the green dragon lived was perilous as Prince Jargo and his white steed climbed carefully several hundred feet high as clouds drifted before them obstructing their view of the high-altitude lair making the adventure more difficult and challenging for the young and nervous prince. Suddenly, a fiery streak several feet long knocked Jargo off his horse making him dizzy with pain when he realized he was attacked by the fiery emblazoned tongue of the green dragon whom he was to slay or would he be slain instead? Unshielding his shiny and diamond studded sword, Jargo entered the slimy and awful reeking cave in which the green dragon lived and to his dismay discovered that there wasn't any sign of the dragon making him wonder how it could hide since his proportions being tall as several stories would make it impossible to do so. Quickly, Jargo left the cave shaking in his boots from a fear he had never known just to become a princely man for the Wondrous Land and his father's approval of him. Immediately, as he stepped outside, he faced a stumble block----the giant green dragon was on the ground and not moving at all, looking still as if dead, so Jargo pierced it with his sword several times to confirm of its demise which made the entire situation much easier for him as he sliced off part of the tail and cut out its heart, all proof was packed as he descended down the steep trail to be welcomed by King Andro as a courageous and manly prince who slayed the evil green dragon.
