The Dragon Square
The Red Dragon Queen transformed into her dragon form. Before letting Link ride on her back, she turned to him and said, "Now close your eyes."
"Why?" asked Link curiously. Still, he closed his eyes shut.
"I'll need to swallow you down my dragon body. The whole body may seem a bit disturbing, and I don't really want to show you my horrible fangs You'll probably hate me for that. You know what, it's probably not enough that you close your eyes, I'll need to cast a Numbing spell on you."
As she spoke, Link felt Gretel's Dragon Power over him. She must have already cast her spell on him.
The spell instantly dulled all of Link's senses. Not only had his surroundings gone dark, but he also could not hear or feel anything around him as well. Link then felt himself being lifted up and sliding down a warm tube.
Five seconds later, the Red Dragon Queen's voice could be heard once more. "Alright, you can open your eyes now."
