Commitment Dragon


Once upon a time in the land of Turnberry a challenge was decreed to all of the single royal subjects. All were to begin courting in order to find a possible suitor. Every young single person anticipated the prospect of winning the grand prize of a magical evening with the king and queen.

There was a fair maiden in the land who decided to give fate a try and to sign up for the challenge. She was very nervous but asked three young men to escort her to various places in the land. One young man stood out among all the rest, he was strong and brave and gallant, everything she had ever hoped for. He and the fair maiden hit it off right from the start. Love was in the air; surely this was the intent of the king and queen to have two of their subjects fall in love and to be the shinning example for the rest of the kingdom.

One night just when everything seemed to be going perfectly, the gallant young man was walking through the forest on his way to meet the fair maiden when along came the infamous commitment dragon and swallowed him up whole. Much to the dismay of the fair maiden, no traces of him could be found. Alas, he was gone. The commitment dragon had once again stolen the happiness of the people of Turnberry.
