Synopsis

They're no longer the youngest lads and lasses—now they're in Class II, and they are expected to show new students the ropes.

Wiglaf wants to be a good "Big Buddy" but it's not easy when the troll is always playing jokes on him. And what about the fire-breathing dragon that the troll swears is in the woods outside DSA? Is it really there? Or is this just another one of the troll's great big fibs?
