5. Too often
Panel 1. A battle is raging between a ferocious dragon and a warrior with a magic sword in flames. The scene takes place in a dense pine forest, in the golden light of a late afternoon, before dusk.
Panel 2. Close-up of the sword in battle, blocking an attack from the dragon's claws. But the warrior's face is suddenly distracted: his sword is speaking a message!
Sword: We've got an update for you. Installing!  
Warrior: Eeeek!
Panel 3. The warrior steps away from the battle, looking to his sword in panic. It is surrounded by rays of magic coming from a distance. They illuminate the scene in blue. The dragon doesn't immediately understand the situation, he is fascinated by this event.
Sword: 80% ... 90%...  
Warrior: No no no no no!
Panel 4. The warrior looks at the result with tears in his eyes: his sword is broken. The blade now lies on the ground, unusable. His fate is sealed. The dragon understands that he has won, he gets a fierce red look in his eyes and prepares a fireball in his smiling mouth. The sword continues to speak, the text is distorted.
Sword: Update Completed. Enjoy!
