Inside the throne room, panic reigns as the royal advisors scramble to interpret the dragons’ sudden display. Scrolls are scattered across the floor, and tapestries ripple in the tense breeze that sweeps through an open window. The king’s golden crown sits askew on his brow as he peers anxiously at the chaos outside.

Jasper the Jester, usually a source of laughter, bows low, his bells chiming. Queen Mirabel, regal and sharp-eyed, addresses him. "Jasper, only you possess the wit—and perhaps the recklessness—to negotiate with dragons. Will you represent us?" "If it means keeping my hat—and the kingdom—intact, your majesty, I accept!"

The largest dragon, Emberwing, smoke curling from his nostrils, leans close. "We demand fair treatment: rest days, treasure holidays, and fire fatigue leave. The days of endless hoarding and castle-guarding are over!" "Surely even dragons need a little ‘me-time.’ Might I propose a festival to celebrate your hard work, with days off and jewels aplenty?"

"We are not jesting, little human! Our union is strong. Without us, your kingdom is defenseless!" "A compromise, then! Rotating shifts, guaranteed nap time, and—dare I suggest—an official Dragon Appreciation Day. You’ll be the envy of every realm!"

Queen Mirabel steps forward, her voice ringing with joy. "Let it be known: this kingdom honors its protectors—dragon and human. Jasper, you have our gratitude…and perhaps a new title!" "Jester, negotiator, and now—dragon liaison! I’ll need a bigger hat."

Sparks from dragonfire light up the night sky in a dazzling display, mirrored by the laughter and music that fill the air. Peace—and a well-earned rest—have finally come to the kingdom, thanks to a jester’s wit and the hard-won unity of dragons.
