Once upon a time, a princess locked up in a tower 

began to hope. She hoped for true love. She hoped for 

a man who could defeat the fierce dragon that 

terrorized the tower's entrance. As the girl grew older, 

her hope grew stronger.

When Princess Ava turned 18, she wrote to her 

parents asking them to send someone to save her. 

She had been talking to her parents by sending 

messages via her carrier eagle, Carl. Princess Ava's 

parents wrote her back, telling her that they would do 

their best.

Ava wished she had never ran into this tower as a child.

She wished she had seen the dragon before she entered.

She wished the eagle that brought her food could carry her 

out of the tower.

Ava's parents, King Damien and Queen Tiffany, had sent princes 

and knights to save her, but the vicious dragon had eaten them all. 

Eventually, the princes stopped trying to save her.

But King Damien and Queen Tiffany still missed their daughter 

dearly. So they sent a decree through all the land saying that the 

man who saved Ava could have her hand in marriage and inherit 

their kingdom.

Many men jumped at this wonderful opportunity. They did 

not fear the vicious dragon, because they wanted so badly to 

become king and inherit the kingdom.

Unfortunately, most of the men did not make it all the way to 

the castle. More than 100 men wound up lost in the woods 

that surrounded Princess Ava's tower!

Brave Knight Nick made it to the tower first. "Princess Ava!" he called.

"Have you come to   save me?" Ava asked from the small window in the 

tower.

"Of course," he replied.

Brave Knight Nick unsheathed his sword and strode toward the tower, 

planning to face the dragon head-on.   

Only to be lit on fire by the vicious dragon!

Brave Knight Nick ran screaming from the tower, and 

Princess Ava sighed, flopping onto her makeshift bed of 

blankets. She didn't want anyone to get hurt.

Handsome Prince Peter made it to the tower next. "Princess Ava!" he 

called.

"Have you come to   save me?" Ava asked from the small window in the 

tower.

"Of course," he replied.

Handsome Prince Peter unsheathed his sword and strode behind the tower, 

planning to attack the dragon from the back.

Only to be gobbled up by the vicious dragon!

Handsome Prince Peter stopped screaming as the 

vicious dragon swallowed him, and Princess Ava 

sighed, flopping onto her makeshift bed of 

blankets. She didn't want anyone to get hurt.

Sneaky Peasant Paul made it to the tower next. "Princess Ava!" he 

called.

"Have you come to   save me?" Ava asked from the small window in the 

tower.

"Of course," he replied.

Sneaky Peasant Paul unsheathed his sword and strode around the 

tower, planning to sneak around the dragon.
