The boy went to the village to shop because he had little food at home, he should have taken the longer route, but he was lazy, so he took the shorter way through the "forest of thieves", which was a big mistake.
The reptilian boy was inattentive, so he fell into a trap, and when he regained consciousness, 2 robbers interrogated him as to whether he still had gold in his home because they found little money in the boy's wallet.
unexpectedly, a lone dragon flew in who heard the teenage reptilian boy's hysterical laughter and maybe save the boy...
before the robbers tickled the boy's sensitive soles to death.
