Chris and the Three Coins Once upon a time in a far off kingdom lived a young prince named Chris. Now Chris was always looking for a way to entertain himself. One day he found three coins. Little did Chris realize that these were magic coins. He decided to take them into town and see what he could buy with them. On his way to town, he met a strange old woman. Even without telling her where he was going, the woman immediately knew about the three coins. She told him that they were her coins and demanded that Chris return them to her at once or else. Chris knew that he had found the coins fair and square so he didn’t hand them over. Suddenly the odd old lady transformed into a giant fire-breathing dragon. Without even thinking about it, Chris unconsciously rubbed the three coins and wished that he had a sword to defend himself. Within seconds, one of the coins morphed into a deadly sword.
