I'm a thorough critique partner, with an eagle eye for character development, showing x telling, plot inconcistensies, dialogues, flow a...

Thats really, really tricky Dave. I can only tell you how I'd handle this, which might not work at all. After all, I dont know your story in all its details and beauties, so, this might work for me, but it can also be a bunch of horses****, you know. In the end, we really have to do what we think it...

A dragon in the human form, brilliant =) And then you say: only the Knight can stop a monstr...
