The Dargarthian chronicles

Chapter 6 reinforcements on the way

Ishka had brought Dargar a messenger bird, these Amazonian birds were much faster than any bird they could, Dargar wrote that he needed reinforcements, he also wrote to the dragon alliance to let them know they have gained an ally.

He gave the letter to the bird and it flew off in a blur, they would wait for it took a few days before they could march out and continue the war against the Amazonian empire and get the kingdom to move out to help against the hordes of chaos.

Dargar sat in the command tent and was planning his strategy for the camping to come and he would have to explore the terrain and find weaknesses in the empire's defenses.

The Dargarthian king felt tired and didn't get much sleep for the battle against chaos back home keep him worried for his father's hard work and his dedication and from the Birth of Dragons and sprits it would all be destroyed.

However, he did not lose hope for he feels like someone or something is in the woods of the Amazonian forest separating the Kingdom and empire, he knows that ishka needs to unify her people if she is too assist the Dragon alliance.

He hears a knock on his door and yells "enter!" it was Dorin, the high king of the dwarves, he saw the tiredness from his eyes and immediately says "why old friend did you not get any sleep? You know that it is important and that if you don't sleep you won't be able to be battle ready!" Dargar sighed and said "its just I am worried back home that is all!" Dorin replied "I know you are but you need sleep get some rest and we will wait until tomorrow!"

Dargar nodded and got up and walked towards his bedroom, as his foot steps echoed through the halls, he thought of the head wizard had told him about the new Dragon King that is hiding in the Amazonian Forest deep within a mountain, though he doses not know where this mountain is but he only told him "when you find the allies ask them about a mountain containing a golden dragon who is shiny beyond all else"

"by the gods do you speak in riddles old friend, though I should ask ishka if she has heard about a dragon that is golden" Dargar thought as he opened the door to the bed room and saw his bed and took his armour off, and laid down in the bed as he closed his eyes for some sleep.

His eyes opened surrounding area filled with gold and rocks, he felt the earth below shake then he looked up and saw a Dragon with no wings, covered in gold, larger than the King Dragon that once ruled the Dragons, his eyes emerald green.

The Dragon turned his head and saw Dargar and moved towards him, his steps shook the ground around him, when he arrived at Dargar his eyes focused on him, he then looked up and growled, Dargar turned and saw silhouette of what seems to be a Crab with his shell with gold stuck to his back.

The Dragon charged roaring, while the Crab charged back with claws open ready to clamp down on the dragon then Dargar went blank and he woke up still in his bed and confused he puts his hand on his forehead and sighed.

Dargar woke up the next day and felt better no dreams, no visions, just calm peaceful sleep, he stretched and put his armour on, and walked out of the building and walked to the strategy tent and saw Ishka, Dorin and Saline there and already waiting for Dargar.

"get enough sleep lad?" Dorin asked Dargar nodded and he walked towards the table with a map of the Empire's cities surrounding the capital.

Dargar looked at ishka and asked "what is the plan?" she pointed to the city closest to the Capital which has a great lake that leads to the mountains north east from the harbor.

"this city sends supplies to the capital, I think if we take this and use the ships and hide below deck we could go undetected and ambush them when they are asleep!" Dargar nodded at that plan and looked to the others "any one else has a different or better plan?" Dorin shook his head and Saline just said "it's a good plan I like it"
