A week has passed since you saved the village from the pack of goblins, but you barely remember that even happened. For a while, you tried to figure out a way to remove the cursed armlet, but just ignored it because it didn't seem to have any negative effects. You traveled from one distressed village to the next, discovering a far more dangerous problem.
Dragons were known to cause pollution problems or feast regularly on the residents of nearby villages, but it was exceedingly rare for a dragon to build its nest in the middle of a town. Twenty-four hours per day, a fierce red dragon ruled a small town with fear. The villagers weren't even allowed to leave. It was a stroke of luck that you happened to wander into town, right as the dragon was delivering an address to his subjects.
"And that is why I expect all citizens of the newly renamed Dragonsville to actively support my new, military initiative. As your ruling lord and protector, I promise to lead you all as the first step in my Grand Dragon Empire!"
"Are you a dragon or a politician?" you snap, and you march into the town square, with a battle axe slung over your shoulder.
The winged lizard cocked his head back and laughed hysterically, which resulted in a scatter shot of fireballs toasting a few faceless voters. "I don't know who you think you are, charging in here, but I'll make an example out of you, for anyone else who might be planning on betraying my protection!" The dragon flapped its wings once, and soared into the air. Another flap of its wings, and its jaws were above you. Around you. Behind you.
You were swallowed whole. Thinking quickly, you dig into the wall, rather, the dragon's throat, with your axe, and chop, chop, chop! The beast's words are muffled, but it cries out in agony at you gradually chop his head off from the inside out and finally spill back out into the town square.
The people cheer for their savior, and begin preparations for a celebration.
