Thread: Dragon Singer

he chuckled at her sudden stop as she saw him, and he watched her gape at him, shaking his head a little. do with you? well he's not going to eat you if that's what your asking. he stated simply. he always spoils the women he takes in. he likes to give people things. Zarek admitted, looking amused. there's nothing wrong with the Herds. when the Peace Treaty was first formed... you... what are they called? the ones with the funny hats? the Dragon Priests. well, they where the first to speak to the Dragon. they decided he needed food, and suggested beef. he agreed because he didn't want to be rude. he admitted simply. so, every month, he gets a new cow. if it's a male, he sends it to a local farm, if it's a female, he leaves it out there to breed and be milked... he really does like milk. he'll drink three or four galleons a day. Zarek admitted, licking his lips as he watched her eat, enjoying his own meal. as for why the Dragon takes a woman every Ten years... that, is a little more complicated. there are several reasons really... Zarek sighed as he set down his silverware. you see... he is the very last of his kind... many, many years ago, centuries, eons. i don't know, i don't see time the same way humans do. he admitted, blinking at her. the Dragon's where the Moon Mother's creation. they where supposed to guard, and protect Humanity... and each other. in the beginning, that is what Dragons did. forged from the Fires of Pit Lava, they rose, and protected human's, gave them aid, and taught them. Human's didn't war, because there was nothing they didn't need... but the Dragons where proud and conceited, and soon wondered why they had to protect such a weak and inferior species... so they left the humans to fend for themselves, and played in the sky, and even took up attacking, and hurting humans for their games. he shook his head slowly. The Moon Mother was angry... so angry... and she lashed out at the dragons, speaking words of fury. you have denied your rights! you who have betrayed me. forever, will you sleep, and mountains will grow over your bones! and the Dragons... one by one... fell asleep... and the earth begane to rise, and swallow them up... but the Moon Mother was sad at what she had done, and decided to give the Dragons another chance, and so she reached up to the stars, and took the brightest one, and from it, she made another Dragon. and she put him on the earth, and told him of his duty. he was to wait for her, for she would be reborn one day, into the body of a woman. this woman, would sing, sing the prettiest songs, though she probobly wouldn't know it. he would take her, and she would sing, and her song will awaken the Dragons. Zarek informed her. every ten years, the Dragon goes down, and accepts a woman, because i am the last, and i am so very lonely... he looked amused. and it's a woman because the Priests gave me such horrified looks when he asked, 'why not men?' apparently they assumed i was going to be... how do you say it? fornicate? yes, that is the word they used. he admitted, shaking his head. so, i take a new woman, every ten years, waiting for the Moon Mother to be reborn. he admitted, blinking at her. i am the very last Dragon Jenna... and my only goal in life is to bring the others back, so that we all can guard humanity, and stop these silly human wars.
