In a faraway land, governed by the woodland elves, trouble is brewing. A mysterious creature has taken to the skies, and no one knows what it is. It breathes fire. It raids the farms. And worst of all, it's unknown. The single clue to what it is is a century-old tale. A tale of a creature that went extinct eons ago. A tale of a creature more deadly than the poisonous arrows the warriors shoot. A dragon.
