Companions of Xanth Hints
What should I do about the Gap Dragon?
1 of 8: There are two creatures in the chasm. Read the entries on them in your Com-Pendium for some very large hints on what to do.
2 of 8: Cumulo Fracto Nimbus and Stanley Steamer are the proper entry names.
3 of 8: The dragon is eventually going to breathe fire on you.
4 of 8: Perhaps you should do something to put out that fire.
5 of 8: There's even a nice cloud hanging over your head.
6 of 8: A cloud that doesn't like being insulted.
7 of 8: Keep talking to Cumulo, and hurl whatever insults you can (they all should be listed at the bottom of the dialog menus).
8 of 8: If you do this long enough, Cumulo will finally rain, and you'll escape.
