[ Return to European Dragons ]
Location:
Germanic/Teutonic Area, Europe
Description:
The Black Worm had a hoard of gold,
which it coiled round to protect. But the worm was not quite long enough
to coil around all of the gold. While it was sleeping, a local man took advantage
of this opening, and climbed up onto the hoard. Soon he had filled his pockets
with gold, but he was greedy for more. He called to his female companion
to climb up to and take more of the gold. This cry woke the worm. The dragon
roared, the man paniced, dropped the gold, and fled. The black worm and it's
gold then sunk into the ground, never to be seen again.
