Part 10: Post 09: The Dragon and the Princess
Post 09: The Dragon and the Princess

At this point, we have the two items required to make a rainbow, but lack the proof of our heritage to have it done. We also haven't saved the Princess, so she shall come first!
At this point we use the two
LifeAcorns and the
MysticNut in our inventory, gaining ten more health and three magic.

Waltzing back to the cave, the door is once again locked. We use a
Key...

...and find the
Dragon once more. Boss time.

Last time we tried this, he barbequed us and left us for dead, but this time we're ready!
The battle carries on, Loto's descendant fighting bravely against the scaled behemoth!
And when all seems lost, the hero strikes the beast dead, the cave falling silent.

And then it fades, awesome.
: I thought no one would be able to come to my rescue. I am Lora, Princess of Tantegel. If you hadn't arrived in time... I would have been made DracoLord's wife. It scares me even now... Andy, would you be so kind as to take me back to the Castle?
: No.
: How could you be so cruel? Andy, would you be so kind as to take me back to the Castle?
: No.
: How could you be so cruel? Andy, would you be so kind as to take me back to the Castle?
: No.
: How could you be so cruel? Andy, would you be so kind as to take me back to the Castle?
: No.
: How could you be so cruel? Andy, would you be so kind as to take me back to the Castle?
: OKAY FINE.
This is one of those infinite "But thou must!" loops, and you could say no to her a thousand times and she'll still insist.
: Oh! Andy! I thank you... ...blush...
We make a quick trip back to Tantegel...
*: But aren't you a handsome fellow? I... I'll tag along with you.
: Oh God I'm about to score with the village bicycle AND the Princess. Thanks, Loto!
: Oh I will, don't worry.
After a little three-way stay at the inn, our hero has officially saved the Princess. Our quest to save Alefgard is drawing to a close, with only one item remaining before we may face the DracoLord.
