CHARACTERS:
Viking Prince; Captain Olaf
PLOT:
Jon and Captain Olaf command a fishing boat that ventures into new waters. The ship encounters a fire troll and is destroyed. When the crew return to shore, the villagers will not return to sea again fearing the fire troll.
The Viking Prince does not believe that the fire troll is real. He challenges the bravest villagers to join him on another voyage, but they refuse. He tries to prove his worth in combat against Red Orm, an outspoken villager who consels them to remain on shore. Jon wins the fight, then decides to challenge the fire troll alone.
Jon sails to the location where the ship encountered the troll. This time he has used iron on his ship to protect it from the flames. With the boat protected, Jon is able to sail close enough to discover that the troll is really just an underground volcano spitting flame into the air. Jon destroys the chimney-like protrusion spouting the flame, making the area safe again for other ships.

Silent Knight; Slasher
PLOT:
Slasher and Tana, the Silent Knight's falcon and steed, debate over which of them is more valuable to their master. They each tell a tale of their adventures to a group of animals who will judge which is best. Both animals make equally good cases as to their value, which divides the group.
The meeting is interrupted when the Silent Knight appears. He requires the aid of both falcon and horse to defeat a pair of brigands. After both animals acquit themselves well, the group of animals come to an agreement that both Slasher and Tana are both equally important to the Silent Knight.
