The task of taking care of the dragon is passed to a young and gullible friar named Mansel (Matt Hickey).

This was contrary to the norms, because the fear was that young friars would find themselves distracted by family and friends, thereby stunting their spiritual growth.

The young friars were then sent back to their homeland to establish the Dominican Order in Poland and Kiev.

A large number of young Dominican friars attended.

Their novitiate completed, St. Dominic sent the young friars back as missionaries to their own country.

"You must follow us, Counselor," said the two young friars of Avaro, who in happier days had often sought his assist- ance which he had freely granted.

As a young friar, he dedicated himself to theological studies and was devoted in his prayer life and asceticism.

The latter misinterpreted the young friar, thinking that the former wanted to know the name of the tool he was using.

The young friar found Joachim's eyes and read the lack of surprise.

They found difficulties with the young friar's ideas.
