That first Polish-language encyclopedia was right about dragons. "It is hard to defeat a dragon, but you have to try." That is in fact a definition of "dragon" that cuts to the heart of the matter and covers all the essentials.

A dragon is something that A) is very hard to defeat and B) must be fought. That's it. That's all you really have to know when approaching the subject.

The GPS isn't working and we are definitely not on route anymore so I am going to step outside and try to figure stuff out. I recommend staying in the bus unless you need to.
