Refusing to be intimidated by threats of violence, rejecting bribes, again putting off his marriage to his mistress of many years, Dan set out to slay the dragon single-handed. The monster had to be destroyed before it claimed a new victim - but if Dan had known who that victim was to be, he might not have been so headstrong!
