7 The Red and White Dragons Legend
Once upon a time a white dragon came to a small Welsh village and decided to live there.

8 The white dragon was icy cold and froze everything around.

9 But what the ice dragon did not know was that another dragon was already living in the area sleeping in a cave.

10 The red dragon awoke to find the white dragon attacking his village
The red dragon awoke to find the white dragon attacking his village. He saw that his people were ill from the cold. The people wanted the red dragon to free them from the icy dragon, so that it would be sunny and warm again.

11 The red fire dragon fought the white dragon at the top of the cliff
The red fire dragon fought the white dragon at the top of the cliff. The red dragon won and the Ice dragon fell dead to the ground.

12 The people were happy as the Red dragon roared with triumph.

13 After the battle, the red dragon went back to his cave and fell into a deep sleep and never woke up. From then on it rains in the green land of Wales in sorrow for the Red dragon's death.

14 The mayor of the village said that the land should always fly a flag with the symbol of the Red dragon on it. The flag's background should be half green and half white. The green to represent the green grass of the land and the white to represent the ice. This way no one would ever forget what happened.
