	Of course!  In fact, footpad, you'll be embarrassed when you
realize how easy it is...

	A key??  Seen one anywhere??

	By killing the dragon, of course!  You'll get a kick out of this one.

	Feed him??  Hades??  Be patient, you won't have to deal with this for

Hint:  some waiting is involved -- and trial and error is about the best
approach...
