The second person hired Risk Professionals. They collected data on the dragon and the true love. They built several machines to detect the sounds of a Dragon and calculated the probability of it’s fiery roar. Was there such a notion of true love…what if it was not reciprocated? True love might be unattractive or insipid. Naturally, this took time and money and the by the time the consultants were ready to advise the Young Person, the person was both old and poor.
