The Whole Palace was Shocked

The morning sun shone on the high walls of the magnificent Atlas Palace. Prince Enver, came rushing in. His handsome face was filled with concern. He called the royal guards, his firm voice breaking the silence of the morning.

"Gather the best troops! We will go to the Forest!" Prince Enver ordered. The guards, accustomed to the prince's impulsive nature, but still obeyed, immediately prepared to head to the forest.

Prince Enver led the group of guards, they walked for a while until a sight spread out before their eyes. A giant dragon, its scales blue and sparkling, lay weakly in the middle of the dense trees. Its size was extraordinary, its long body winding on the ground, almost filling a small valley, its breath was labored, faintly audible groans from within its large body.

The guards were shocked. Expressions of fear and awe mixed on their faces. They had never seen a creature that big and strong before. Some of them were even trembling with fear.
