Othar communicated with his goddess TIAMAT and summoned his servants. One could hear from the dungeon what they were saying but I, with the darkness I could hear better but they felt something, they too were close to this dimension, but a more "bloody" version, more gothic.

Some looked at me without seeing me, looking into the void. Their unconscious guided them towards me and I didn't feel comfortable at all.

OTHAR:

Dear SERVITOR AND COMPANY OF THE ABYSSES, our goddess TIAMAT did us the honor of visiting me and speaking to me.

She wishes our guests to continue on their way because they have a mission to accomplish.

We all love our goddess and she is young and inexperienced. Between what is good for her and what she thinks is good to do, there is a big difference.

Our mission is to educate our guest, Daathr, the new dragon of darkness. He must learn to face the abyss and the dangers that await him there. His place is not here to hang out with humans but to live and eat chaos.

His companions will only distract him from his real mission and keep him weak in order to confront

Jörmungand.

What we are going to do will make Tiamat furious, but it is this Tiamat that we love, not the almost human Tiamat. She too has been lost because of the humanity within her.

We must absolutely put things back in order. We will proceed to execute her companions and villager and invite him to drink the spilled blood. He will then become a true blood dragon!

  He will then become a true blood dragon!

So Othar invited everyone to follow him. He took off his mask and stared at me from the darkness.

Daathr, I see you as you see me and don't take this the wrong way but I KNOW EVERYTHING!

IF I HAVE REIGNED OVER THESE LANDS SINCE THE DAWN OF TIME IT IS BECAUSE I KNOW WHERE EVERY SPIDER, EVERY MOUSE HERE IS HIDING. YOU TOO CAN HIDE IN THE SHADOWS FOR MY SERVANTS, BUT I ALSO KNOW WHAT TIAMAT THINKS. DID SHE ASK YOU TO KILL US ALL? SAY IT TO MY FACE! HAVE THE COURAGE TO TELL THE TRUTH.

Me: Yes!

Ah, that's good because if you had lied to me, then I would have asked you to kill YOURSELF your friends.

A DRAGON OF BLOOD OR DARKNESS, HAS NO FRIENDS. YOU ARE BORN ALONE YOU LIVE ALONE AND YOU DIE ALONE, AND YOU LIVE ALONE. NEVER FORGET THAT.

I, too, had friends centuries ago, but time has reaped them. and no matter how many friends I made, the reaper reaped and reaped and reaped and reaped. I begged her to take me, but she would run away from me and leave me alone. So by being alone, I stopped this suffering and now I am no longer afraid of death or life. I exist to exist. I die and I live again and again, but you know what? You know why being a dracoliche makes me happy?

I am a dragon! Help me! (TOME 4 of the TIAMAT'S WARS SERIE)Where stories live. Discover now
