1.5 – When God Comes to Town At this point it may be necessary to point out that you are not in trouble. Whoever you may be, wherever you may be, whenever you may be, you are precious. You are loved. This will make more sense later. In a way, everyone is the main character […]
1.4 Dragonslayer Redux First, a long, low grinding sound like chains rumbling against chains and then a thud that caused the entire chamber to shudder, and then the red dragon fell to the ground, dead.
