Twelve years ago, Dax, rightful king of West Landly was forced to flee into exile. Now he has become an expert warrior for hire.

They continued to ride for a few moments, but they encountered a drift of overthrown horses and riders. Captain Baffen signaled a halt. Once the drumbeat of their horses hooves were silent, he heard a cacophony of shrieks and screams from all around. Another great gout of fire swept towards them, and the roar drowned out the heart-rending cries for help. This time they saw the fire as it swept towards them. They were in a shallow depression below the level of the rest of the plain, and the searing heat from the inferno swept just over their heads like a beacon from left to right. They started forward again, but a great wind followed the fire. It swept the dust away as they came onto level ground. That was when they saw the dragon.

Highest Ranking: #50 in Vampire He was there, fangs baring and eyes burning in the dark. Those fangs were alluring and captivating as they caught the harsh, orange light from the sconces lining the walls. My brain told me to run, but my feet were glued to the ground. My heart pounded against my ribcage, sending painful jolts to my limbs as they shook. "Stella....Stella...."; he breathed heavily, never taking his eyes off me. "Please-don't-" "Stella...I-" his entire body shook in strange convulsions. "No...Monticello!" automatically my hand reached out, wanting to at least reassure him I wasn't scared. But I was. His irises flared a rich red, simultaneously causing the pupils to contract. A deep growl thundered in his chest. As his mouth widened, a ferocious, feral snarl escaped and sent my heart into overdrive. I took a step back, nearly tripping over my feet as he advanced. Before I could blink, he was lunging at my throat.
