Dragon Little cried. It gushed out of her like a tidal wave.

I could not see her, since she was in the Infinite Prison in the belly of Bonny’s Revenge.

I wanted to hold her and make it better. But I could not.

As she cried, I heard the rustling of the iron bars of General Hawk’s cell. And then I heard the sound of skin and feathers on human skin: he was not caressing her. He had reached out of the bars with his arm and burnt wing and was holding her as much as he could.

“I killed the Goblin Monster!” she said again, crying.

I have told you of the day when Dragon Father decided to teach Dragon Little that killing ist necessary. I have told you how he created a dream that forced her to kill the Goblin Monster.

I have not told you of the things that happened afterwards, when Dragon Father was away and awake in what dreamers often call ‘the real world’.

After Dragon Father disappeared, Dragon Little walked the deck from side to side for more than an hour. She climbed the mast and sat in the crow’s nest. She sat on the plank and stared at the ocean.

She took Bonny’s Revenge for a flight around the stars and quickly returned to the ocean, having stopped for nothing on the way.

That day, Dragon Little fell asleep in the crow’s nest.

It is time I told you how the Evil Fairy Forest King died. I have told you of the events that led to his death. I have told you how his behavior affected the 5-year-old Dragon Little. And I have told you how she discovered his body. 

But it is something I should relate. Because you need to know what happens in the belly of Bonny’s Revenge

The prisoners in the Infinite Prison are all villains captured by Dragon Little and Dragon Father during their adventures. When Dragon Father is away, in his waking world, the villains become Dragon Little’s companions. 

What does that mean? You will see.

Dragon Little came out of her cabin, looked at the ocean around her, turned and entered the door next to her cabin, the one leading down to Infinite Prison at the belly of Bonny’s Revenge

I heard her shout, not scream. I cannot see from my hiding place into the Infinite Prison, but I knew what she saw, for I had heard what had come before, and I heard his gurgling. 

Inside his locked cell, the Evil Fairy Forest King lay on his back, a big, burnt feather stuck deep into his neck. He was still moving, gurgling, and barely breathing.

As usual, she went down to the Infinite Prison in the belly of the ship to talk to some villains that have become her friends. As she walked, I heard the Evil Fairy Forest King whisper at her with his grating voice, “Ah, your father tried to teach you leadership, did he?” 

“King…” I heard General Hawk’s voice rise menacingly. Only a few days ago did he threaten the Evil Fairy Forest King for successfully planting self-doubt in Dragon Little’s mind

The evil king ignored the faraway threat. “I only say that he seems to prepare you to lead. That is good.”

“King… Shut your mouth!” General Hawk’s voice grew fierce.

The dream ist quiet when there ist no dreamer in it. Bonny’s Revenge, the pirate ship that serves as home for Dragon Father and Dragon Little, sailed silently and slowly on the waveless ocean. But in the belly of the ship, in the Infinite Corridor which serves as prison for the villains Dragon Little and Dragon Father capture, the villains who stay behind even when the dreamer who created them wakes up - those villains remain awake. Almost none of them sleep. 

They rarely talk among themselves, but this time they did.

There are so many things I have told you about Joy Shelley, the little human girl I lovingly called ‘Dragon Little’. I do look at her as the daughter I could never have. 

There are so many things to tell that I fear there will never be enough time to tell them all. 

And yet, as much as she amazes me every day of her life, she ist human and bad things can happen to her when villains are involved.

My Dragon Little was four and a few months old, when her father helped tuck her in. It was the first time in a month or so that he had been able to do so. Over the last month, he had been appearing much later in the day and disappearing in the middle of an adventure almost every day. 

But this time the adventure had ended, the villain had been led to the Infinite Prison in the belly of Bonny’s Revenge, and Dragon Father had time to help Dragon Little go to bed. 

“Dad, tell me about the time I peed on the Fairy Forest King.”
