Fellow gameboomers! Crossword puzzle no. 5.  Might be that the Scarlet Dragon got an edge this time. Please don't post your solution the next 24 hours. Don't want to spoil the fun for the others. General feedback, e.g. difficulty level, is always welcome. Enjoy! ![[Linked Image]](https://jonax.se/ijkm/%23005Q.png)

I have it.  The 5th down wasn't familiar to me but the other words filled it in. 
 Fear not the dark itself, but what may lurk within it.

I'm obviously being very dense because I have no idea how to complete these puzzles!   Actually, having looked back to the answer of 004, I have worked out that I want one letter in each square to form words and how those are clued (although of course I still have to solve the puzzle)...   Got it - nice little puzzle - many thanks

Got it - nice little puzzle - many thanks  Well done and thanks.    As I understand it the Anglosphere has some other convention for crossword puzzles. However in my corner of the world they tend to come in this style. Though generally not as compact as mine. But I'm a beginner at puzzle making so better keep them tiny and simple. Also over here the crossword puzzles often contain some image(s) |  |  |

Thanks for the clue. Not sure I would have recognized my ancestor without it. 
 Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons ...

Thanks for the clue. Not sure I would have recognized my ancestor without it.Yeah.. Dragons are not that common nowadays.  btw. Tolkien, of Lord of the Rings fame, wrote a story with a dragon from Wales... The "Farmer Giles of Ham"  apparently them dragons were rare aleady back then. |  |  |
