They say she was born in a volcano, others say she was born with the dragon's abilty. But the real truth was, she was sworn to Dragon's Oath when she was just a babe. Obviously it wasn't her choice to be like this, it was her father who gave her up. He was a strong warrior, who fought in the front lines of all battles. He was known to be the greatest knight of all. But he was humble about it. He was all about keeping his daughter protected, he wanted her to be safe from creatures, and all humans. She was precious.
Baron Hendereye was her father's name, so Baron took his daughter to the place where all dragons lie. The journey was a fortnight but it was worth it, to keep his daughter safe. The journey to Mount. Sonap was to be prepared and set. Eight men were to join him, but little did he know that only he would be returning.
They gathered, food, weapons, and their armor; sat upon their horses, and off they went. Leaving behind concerned folks, as well as a shaken mother. Baron kept her safe throughout the journey, making sure she was in no harm's way. The long cold nights near the Mountain were what killed the first 3 men.
" We must keep going men, there is no time for rest" As he was saying this a small pack of wolves had picked up the scent of all the men, and heard Baron's booming voice. Baron pulled his mighty sword from his sheath, thrusting, slicing, ripping wolves. While one of the others held the small child.
" See your father? You are to become like him someday, strong, willful, brave; He would like that"After the wolves had been taken care of, Baron, took hold of his child once more. Continuing the journey on to the Mountain.
They had been traveling for over fourteen days, one man had collapsed from the lack of nourishment, he was not savable because no one could carry him on horseback.
When they had just reached about three- fourths of the way to the top of the mountain, they heard a mighty roar coming from the cave above.
" Tis no bear men, the beast the lives upon this mountain is, Veroth, the elemental dragon, the queen of all dragons that roam this land"
Venoth slithered down the mountain to meet the eyes of the four men left. She was a large red and gold dragon, with eyes that burned through the soul, she had teeth as large as buildings, being able to cut through anything. She was a gentle giant though, she meant no harm to the three men, she spoke softly to them.
" You come to me, why"
" We come to give my daughter protection by the Dragon Oath, She is only a child"
" Bring her forward"
Baron took out his daughter, setting her at the feet of the dragon. Veroth spit out each element around her.
Ice
Water
Fire
Earth
Air
Speaking in tongue once more, Veroth, said these words to the young child.
" You shall have fear no more, we dragon's give you the strength of 10 men, to make you the warrior you are meant to be, with each element present, you shall have the ability of each"
With that Veroth curled her tail around the small child taking her up to the mountain, to the home of Veroth.
" Come back in 15 years time, and you will see the progress we have made, she will be the greatest warrior known, even greater than you, Baron"
As the years past Veroth grew Avrae into a graceful warrior, training her to use her elemental powers, only for the good of others, giving her a chance in hand to hand combat. When she used her sword it was like, she was born to do this.
