Description
A sweet and powerful story told in second-person about facing your fears (or dragons) and how, when people work together, hope can prevail.
It's a normal day in your normal town. You are all alone when you spot a dragon overhead. You know you can't defeat it by yourself, so you call for help. Your friends, family and neighbors all band together. Some do the firefighting, some try to reason with the dragon and some are fierce and fearless. Just when it seems the beast has won, more people arrive and rally against it. Finally, the dragon flees! And now, if it ever comes back, you'll be ready to face it with your community. Together.
