The forest dragon hunched down, tail whipping side to side.
Everyone reached for their weapons but I knew this body-language better than my own.
"Wait," I called.
There was a hesitant pause as I strode towards the large winged beast.
It made a rattling hiss, blazing eyes focused on me.
I raised my club very slowly, "Oo's a good dragon? Yes you are!"
Then I flung my club as hard as I could, "Fetch!"
It was just a big playful baby!
