The dragon is the ultimate being a true apex predator in every regard. They can flatten forests with their wings and raze mountains in their fiery breath. Before a dragon none may stand. But one day from the dragon's fire was born a phoenix, a creature that with every death is re-birthed. Over many lifetimes the phoenix can grow with its accumulated wisdom and experiences. So this begs the question, Will the phoenix ever surpass the dragon? And if so, at what cost?

Reincarnated into a fantasy world
After you got killed prematurely, a goddess from another world decided to bring you back to life in a fantasy world. But in exchange for your new life, she asked you to do her a simple favor; not to kill the demon lord, and do not interfere with the hero in any way possible. And that was a simple request you agreed to, but not without its consequences.
Dragon Reincarnated (Working title)
As an avid- and fairly unsuccessful- writer of fantasy fiction, I know that dragons are pretty much the pinnacle of existence. I dare anyone to argue. So, when my mundane existence comes to an end and I am offered a choice of whatever race I liked upon reincarnating into a fantasy world, of course I chose dragon. Little did I know that my life as a dragon would take more than its fair share of twists and turns. But hey, I was a dragon... Everyone knows you don't mess with dragons. This is the next one to be added up on Royal Road in a couple days, once Broken's current chapters are done being added :)

The Queen locked her cold stare onto the dragon who sat before her, which unfortunately was me. "I need you to stay on my side. You are aware the reasons behind the declaration for war, yes?" "Yes, your highness." "Then you understand my problem. One, anyways." She looked away, as if talking to herself. "Do you have another problem, highness?" The Queen looked around to make sure no one else was nearby. Then, she leaned in slightly and whispered, "Dark Dragons." "Dark... Dragons...? Is there such a thing, highness?" I cocked my head at the unfamiliar term. "Indeed. They roam everywhere outside of my kingdom. They threaten our very existence." She sighed, deeply troubled. "Dark Dragons are what we call multi-element dragons, and all of them are marked with a red symbol, of course it varies how it looks with each one..." I sat upright, and tightened my stomach muscles. My blood ran cold and one thought raced through me: Why had my mother never mentioned this? 🏆 HIGHEST RANKINGS 🏆 1 - #darkdragon (2/22/2019) 7 - #gold (1/1/2019) 2 - #lands (1/19/2019) 👁 VIEWS 👁 🔓100 - 900 (1/16/2019) 🔓1,000 (1/19/2019) 🎉 🔓2K (8/4/2019) 🔓3K (9/8/2020) 🔓5K (2021) 🔓6K (2022)Complete
