Chapter 6- The dragons Tale:
遠く- A dragon curled itself on its pile of wealth, the village below was in poor health.
This dragon had drowned in its greed
Knights rode their faithful steeds.
Climbing jagged edges and slinking past treacherous ledges to seek out the thief who claimed itself chief with a cocky belief that no one would dare try to sneak past it like a leek.
A man dressed in metal would not settle for his villages downfall, the king had let his crown fall.
With a swing of his sword, he pleased the lord with the blood of the beast who enjoyed to feast off the villages grief much to others disbelief.
As the dark blood spilled over the edges the court alleges that the knight that climbed such heights be rewarded the hoarded gold the dragon had in its tight hold.
The knight's heart grew cold as it's greed increased tenfold and he hoarded whatever he could hold, as his pockets began to get heavy the court started to feel unsteady.
Soon it all grew too much for the village and they cast him out, worried he'd start to pillage.
Needing a new place to stay the man lay in the same cave where he had once stood tall and brave.
After years of surviving on his own, the metal had sown itself into his flesh. The man people once knew had turned into mesh.
His face contorted, he fell, no longer supported beside his pile of wealth. His body changed with little stealth.
His mesh skin turned to scales, the shadow of himself fails. He is no longer the knight in a shining suit but a mere creature that liked to loot with no laws and only claws.
He was way past fixing his flaws.
