[ This guy was a piece of work, wasn’t he? Arthur is pretty certain that the only thing that can punish a dragon is a bigger dragon, but once again, he’s left with little time to marvel at his impromptu ally’s eccentricities.
The dragon is rearing up for an attack, flames building in its maw, and Arthur can already feel the first waves of heat from where he stands. The only blessing is that as the dragon prepares to douse them all in flame, it gives Arthur a stationary target. He levels his gun, allows himself a fraction of a second to steady himself, and he fires.
The flames gutter out as the dragon roars in pain, head snapping back as a spurt of blood escapes its eye socket. It’s half-blinded, at least, but Arthur won’t get another shot until it stills again. He snaps open the now empty ammo chamber on his firearm and reloads, waiting for his next opportunity. ]
Stay close. It will likely try to keep us both on its good side, and I'd rather not waste my ammunition.
