Some words from the author...
Short story is a peculiar genre. It has its regulations and
laws. Some drown-out or imperfectly planned scenes are
admissible in a novel. There also might be some stylistic
imperfections. In short story all of them are unacceptable.
Every word is on the right place, and none of them is
superfluous. It's said the ending makes the story.
It's 300%-right as far as short story is concerned.
Such severe restrictions are there.

When Tiny Crocodile had grown up a little it read one interesting book. It was a long story about a dragon written by Pavel Shumil. And some years later there appeared some other books created by this author. Tiny Crocodile decided to find the author's site in the Internet. And the site was found. Then Tiny Crocodile thought that it could try to translate one short story it liked and made it. That's all, folks!
