A Kings Worst Nightmare

In a forest began a tale,
There was a king that all would hail,
strong and fast and wise was he,
everyone new him and left him be,
for there was no battle that him would ail,
and against beast or monster never would he fail,
But one day came a dragon to the king of all,
he came out fighting handsome and tall,
the dragon breathed out his fiery breath,
and the king did not now what was less,
he slew the dragon and let out his calling,
but when he turned he saw that Tennendale had fallen.
