In an era lost to the mists of time, before Valyria became the wondrous and majestic land known to legends, it was a place of wild, untamed magic. The elements-fire, earth, water, and air-clashed in eternal conflict, shaping the land in ways both beautiful and terrifying.
Amidst this chaos, a visionary sorcerer and a gifted healer embarked on a perilous quest, driven by ancient prophecies and haunting visions of majestic, winged creatures. Their journey led them through treacherous landscapes and sacred places, seeking the secrets of creation hidden in the heart of the world.
In the shadow of towering volcanoes, beneath the depths of ancient seas, and high above the peaks where the air is thin, they discovered the ancient rituals and primordial forces that would give birth to a new order.
The story of how dragons came to be, their origins shrouded in mystery and magic, is a tale whispered through the ages-a tale of transformation, of the balance between chaos and harmony, and of the powerful forces that shaped the very foundation of Valyria.
This is the beginning of that legend, a glimpse into the enigmatic past that gave rise to the dragons, the mighty guardians of Valyria's splendor.

Dragons at Hogwarts
The Elder Dragons are an old race, as old as the magic that permeates this world. They are the oldest of races and in the times of fire and lava at the formation of this world, they were there, and they developed hard scales, harder than diamond, and wings to fly above the fire and death in the burning world below. Then the fire went and the lava cooled, and the Earth was still. And the Elders remained. The ice spread from the north, coating the Earth in frost, and the Elders developed fire as a way to remind themselves of their beginnings and keep warm on the merciless ice. Then, as the seasons of the earth changed and the humans came from the trees and built on the land, the Elders developed their ability to change into these new creatures and back into their true selves at will. Some split off at this point, becoming dumber and cruder, and lost the title of Elder. As the humans became smarter and were able to wield the magic of this world, the Darkest of all, the darkness without a name, came unto this world, and the Elders met their match. In the first time in millennia the Elder Dragons were afraid. They were driven to near extinction, until they retreated from this earth, and flew away, lost, leaving their cousins, the dragons, behind. But one remains. She doesn't know the secrets of her race, the secrets of the world she finds herself in. All she knows is that she is different. -------------------------------------------------- Harry Potter based fanfic introducing a new character (her POV) from book 3 and seeing where it takes the story. Incomplete. Sporadic updates (sorry) Bit of humor, bit of drama, no romance so far. Thanks for reading this :)Complete
