ZADOK
I watched in horror as the dragon took Ithra farther and farther away from me.
“Wait! Please! Don’t kill her!” I screamed with all my might. Praying that the dragon heard and reconsidered its decision - All to no avail.
Instead, the dragon took her up to the roof of the cave and threw her into what seemed like a reef at the top of the rocks.
“Not yet.” I heard the cackle of the dragon. “Sometimes, it gets lonely over here. I mean, it’s once in a thousand years before I can meet visitors in the dark forest.” he snickered, “And that’s not because there haven’t been a lot of them, but because they weren’t lucky enough to get here.” The dragon descended and sat proudly on the mountain of treasures. “So you can imagine my surprise when I saw two suspecting individuals threading my territory with every plan of crossing over without saying hi.”
“Let her go,” I growled, not in the mood for his story time.
