This is a capitalism fantasy-adventure inspired by the daredevil-films Army of Darkness and Cowboys and Aliens.
Isn't it funny how commerce and capitalism and the globalization-politics it has engendered has changed our perspective on 'human will' (e.g., Wall Street)?
Cheers,

Alas the knight travelled through time in a portal-wormhole opened up by the powerful wizard Merlin. Alas found himself in the deserts of Arabia in the 21st Century. Capitalism-baron Donald Trump was U.S. President and leader of the free-world, and there were escalating tensions in the Middle East (Sunni-Shia relations, Israel-Palestine, etc.) and nuclear war considerations between America and North Korea. Consumerism was exploding and democratic South Korea had immense global successes with its consumer electronics company Samsung.
Alas discovered that in the deserts of Arabia a strange and deranged dragon had also travelled through the portal-wormhole (through an opening created by an evil wizard, a rival of Merlin). The dragon was Tiamat, and he found that going through the time-portal had consolidated his multiple heads into one potent fire-breathing head, and Tiamat wanted to destroy Alas. Alas used his communicator amulet to ask Merlin to send ally knights through the time-portal, and Merlin did so. The stage was set for a very unusual engagement.
Alas found himself in the thick of battle with Tiamat. The fire-breathing dragon noted that Merlin had sent Alas multiple ally knights to help him deal in the battle, but Tiamat kept all knights (including Alas) at bay with his breath-of-fire. Alas wondered if Tiamat had landed in 21st Century Earth to challenge the general human optimism regarding commerce-driven globalization (i.e., NATO, European Union). Tiamat told Alas that the true challenge was to catalyze nuclear war, but Alas used his magical shield (given to him by Merlin) to deflect Tiamat's fire and burn him to death and end the anti-democracy 'reign of fire' (before he returned to his own time).
