The Dragon Chronicles: In Twisted Time

Chapter 10: The Lady and The Goblin

(Author's Note: This is also a filler chapter, created by Patrick Cajili. This story is dedicated for the launch of Kali, the 6th character in Dragon Nest)

"What is this feeling? Why is my body so heavy?" as she opened her eyes, she suddenly screamed. 

"Aaaaaaaaaahhhh, what are you doing to me? Wait, did you just touch my ...," she kicked this ferocious monster lying on top of her. She then realized that she was lying on the ground.

" I .. I'm sorry young lady, I saw you there at the riverside. I thought you were dead. I was about to give you a CPR, but then ...," said the small goblin who is still dizzy due to that powerful kick.

" No buts, how dare you touch my body, you will pay for this, you malicious monster!" said the lady. The ground suddenly starts shaking. A black ritual circle appeared on the ground, releasing an immense amount of magic power, opening some sort of inter-dimensional rift. A roar similar to that of a dragon can be heard. The goblin is very scared. The lady noticed something and she stopped the attack.

The goblin starts to disappear. It seems that magic starts to fade away slowly. The effect of the goblin transformation starts to wear off. She saw a young lad, who is very scared.

" P.. Please, don't hurt me" , said the young boy. The lady apologized. The tension  between the two slowly disappeared. The boy told her that he was about to go fishing in the river when he saw a floating human body with immense black aura around it. 

" I thought you were a goblin trying to rape me."

" I'm sorry about that. I used a goblin transformation potion a while ago. I find it easier to catch a fish if I'm a goblin," 

The lady realized that those were not her ordinary dream. Those were too detailed. The awakening of the dragon, the bloody events, those were too realistic. It may be a prophecy, but she's hoping that it's just a dream that won't come true. 

" Are you alright?"

" Yes, I'm fine. I need to go. Thank you for your help,"

" You should rest for a while. You haven't yet fully recovered "

" I just remembered that I need to look for someone called Riz. Do you know it?"

" I haven't heard of it yet. Wait, before you go, may i ask your name? "

" I'm Seojuhyun,"

Before she left, she kissed the young lad who rescued her, and gave him a small necklace as a remembrance.

She then disappeared.

"I don't know what those puzzle-like dreams mean. I don't know any of those people nor I don't remember those events happening. I don't know a sorceress named iDec, nor a warrior named ElliZi. The journey to Saint Haven is quite long but the only thing that may complete this whole mystery puzzle is located there, the only one that can answer my questions, the one and only person known as Riz."
