The Story (an introduction to Land Of Cargessol):

Once upon a time, in the land of Cargessol there was a horseman named Elias.
Cargessol was living in peace ever since the day the wizard "Dentdure" conquered the dragon Nésamès by putting it to sleep.
However, in recent days, the dragon seemed to have been awakened and the people were living under the permanent threat of being attacked.
Facing imminent danger, the king held a war council, but at merely the utterance of the name "Nésamès", the knights refused to fight.
While the king was going to declare the hopelessness of the situation, Elias shyly raised his hand.
All of the court made fun of him, but the king struck by great courage offered him his sword and his blessing.
Elias left to the black mountain.
At the end of his journey he found the cave of the dragon and shouted: " watch out Nésamès! I come here to crush you!"
At the sight of this man so little and so sure of himself, the dragon couldn’t hold himself anymore, and a mad laughter came over him.
He laughed and laughed and laughed, and the more he laughed, the more he felt like laughing to the point that he choked to death…
