Comparing The Christmas Dragon And The Night Of Tralala
The Christmas Dragon and the Night of Tralala

Once upon a time, there was a Christmas dragon that haunted the magical kingdom of Tralala. Every day, he asked for ten gold coins or else he would eat someone. A few years later, after all that torturous misery, a brave knight named Sir John came and said he was on a quest to defeat the Christmas dragon.
He soon realized it would be extremely hard because the Christmas dragon knew how to fly. So, he came prepared with a trampoline. One time, he jumped off the roof onto the trampoline and landed on the dragon’s back. The dragon started flying around in ziggy-zaggy ways, trying to knock him off. He dove down and flipped the knight into a lake.
The knight realized he needed a better plan. He thought for many weeks. Finally, he figured he needed a cannon to shoot him down. He found the king’s cannon hidden underneath his palace. It was ten times the size of the dragon, and the cannonballs were the size of the knight himself. He hid the cannon at the door of the castle. He set another trap for the dragon, and the king went to hide.
The dragon landed and said he was going to kill everyone in the kingdom. The king told the dragon he needed to show him something special. He introduced the dragon to the room where the cannon was, then made an excuse, saying he had to leave. The dragon …show more content…
He lit the end of the cannon and shot it. The wounded dragon started to run away. The dragon went home, where he told his family and friends they needed to help destroy the kingdom. A little dragon was scared and told the knight the dragon’s plan. The knight was really scared now, because all the dragons couldn’t be killed with one cannon. The little dragon said they secretly moved their dragon village to a volcano nearby. All the dragons flew over, and the knight threw a rock, which made the volcano very upset. The knight ran away. The volcano erupted right when all the dragons went on

    Comparing Heroes In Beowulf And Sir Gawain

    Rather than send warriors to fight the dragon, Beowulf goes himself to fight the dragon. Taking sword and shield he engages the beast in combat. However, Beowulf runs into complications with this beast, “the iron Shield, and for a time it held, protected Beowulf as he’d planned; then it began to melt.” (720-722) Beowulf finds himself in defeat for the first time. Then Wiglaf, one of his kinsmen, comes to his aid and together they defeat the dragon. Yet, Beowulf is mortally wounded and is about to die. Before dying, he passes the throne to Wiglaf. Thus the hero dies in a heroic manner and with pride, after fighting a foe that once again threatened a people. Beowulf is not only a hero, but also an example to all warriors of what they should strive to…

    Analysis: The Sacralization Of Christmas

    Hey Virginia, there is more than just a Santa Claus. Nowadays, Americans have either forgotten or ignored Christmas traditions put in place over 1500 years ago. They would rather indulge in the gifts and shopping to please their family than sit back and enjoy the holiday. This new mindset has led Christmas, Hanukkah, and other seasonal festivals to lose their religious intent through the past centuries by the hands of both people and markets. The original purpose of Christmas, celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, has been trampled and overshadowed by a marketeer’s interpretation of how to represent the holiday. Santa and snowmen have become the faces of Christmas, instead of the Son…

    Evolution Of Christmas

    Winston Churchill once said, “Christmas is a season not only of rejoicing but of reflection.” As the big day draws near, it is important to reflect on the roots of the global holiday as well as the direction in which it is heading. Christmas is a tradition rooted deep in the history of western society. It has undergone many changes since it’s earliest celebrations. Even today, the holiday is constantly changing. Each year brings new innovations to Christmas. In the dawn of the holiday, it was minor and focused on the birth of Jesus, the light of the world. In the 19th century, Christmas was a time of family and goodwill to mankind. Today, though there still remains aspects of religion and selflessness, more than ever it has become a holiday consumed by commercialism. It is a development that is not likely to go way any time soon.…

    And here comes this huge winged beast, who breathes fire from its mouth; bringing the half of the kingdom down to ashes. A dragon has come to challenge our might of our hero. And as per the norm, despite his old age, our King accepts. He puts on his sword and armor once more, and combats the beast. Our king struggled for the beast had the upper hand. But we all know that a dragon is no match for the mighty Beowulf. Our king slits the dragon’s left wing holding its flight to lower grounds. Once our hero successfully placed himself into position, he cuts through the dragon’s skin and reaches for its heart. The dragon wriggled and fought but he was overpowered by our mighty Beowulf. He grabs a hold of the dragon’s heart and rips it from its body. The dragon completely falls down to the ground, dead, but leaving our hero poisoned to death. And here we are, mourning. But is that what our king would really want? I believe that if he were to attend his own burial, he would not want us to mourn, but to rejoice instead. For he died…

    Rain Horse

    Awhile later he spotted the horse again, so he crouched down. Apparently the horse had not seen him so he moved along carefully. Then the rain picked up and continued to throughly soak him. But he could not keep the horse off of his mind, and because he didn’t want to walk into open field he moved close to a tree and looked back. But just as he peered out the ground shook and he tumbled wildly down the hill and through some old treesm, finally stopping in the mud. Upon reaching the mud he realized that he was alone and the horse had been waiting for him to come out of the woods. This was proof that it was after him, so he picked up two stones and strode off towards the woods carelessly. The Dude then begins to run, only to be followed by the horse, so he whorls around and throws the stones.…
