Torrie and the Dragon
On a moonlit night around a bonfire, the capricious creature Torrie tells the story of an adventure he shared – in the days when humans and the magical Old Things believed in one another. Join the forest creatures as they hear of Prince Rufke's Quest across the mountains to slay a fearsome dragon; of Enchantress Cossypha, a headstrong Maiden who is bored with hunting goblins and joins the Quest; of the evil Wolf-Headed guards who are sent to capture the trespassers; and of Wormbane, the sword with magical powers.
