Shadow of Dragons

The world was once a lush green place. Freedom and equality were the rewards of a millennia of fighting and now everyone looked to build a better world.

However, one night in the middle of summer the skies lit red and blue as rocks fell to earth. Llithian sent out its army in fear of attack from Thanderal, Thanderal sent theirs out in retaliation of Llithian sending out their army.

They stood but a hundred yards from each other, people who any other day they would have stopped to talk to, looking into each other’s eyes, each second taking a life time.

The rocks cooled and cracked revealing eggs inside and each egg was recovered but the respective nation, however, this misunderstanding some used for their advantage, the Cleric of the Thanderal religion deemed the eggs a sign from god and ordered his followers to break rank and fight for the red eggs.

The king of Thanderal ordered his troops forwarded, he couldn’t see his troops butchered. The battle was long and hard but three days later there was a truce and the armies backed down, the Cleric was executed for treason. However, one night soon after, his followers assassinated the king, some say with the help of the army. The army then took over the nation.

Llithian however suffered little effect for the battle, few were killed and each was honoured.

In the following years the eggs hatched and a new breed of soldier was born, the breed of dragon riders.

The world would never be the same again.
