Farmer
Giles of Ham did not look like a hero. He was fat and red-bearded and enjoyed a
slow, comfortable life.
Then
on day a rather deaf and short-sighted giant blundere onto his land. More by
luck than skill. Farmer Giles managed to scare him away. The people of the
village cheered: Farmer Giles was a hero.
His
reputation spread far and wide across the kingdom. So it was natural that when
the dragon Chrysophylax visited the area it was Farmer Giles who expected to do
battle with it!
