"You can't stop me." Growled the dragon
I aimed my glimmering sword at its heart.
My weapon sliced through the air and into its simmering scales
Where it has settled from its start.
A mound of ashes surrounds my feet
I watch the sky brim with tears
as the stained uniform of soldiers defeat
confirms my greatest fear.
A cold hard sky presses down
as I look into his eyes.
"Come with me" he mouths,
but I never compromise.
Hot sparks crackle and burst forth from the source
an elder in dark robes rummages through his scrolls
seeking out the solution
to a problem that is far from old.
A crumpled piece of parchment
balled up in my fist.
My face set in concentration
as I look out over the Sea of Mist.
A creaking ship I board upon
is led by a dauntless crew.
They glance at me with looks of wonder
and murmur to each other "Who?"
A smoking battle appears on the shore
full of glinting armor and sober robes
anguished cries escape dying lips
as the enemy begins to close.
My boots hit the ground
as I unsheathe my rage.
My fate has come around
and it is crucial that I do not delay.
