    “Annuak, god of war, hear your servant from across land and sea,” whispered the ogre in supplication. “Guide my arrow true.” 'Twang.' Propelled through smoke and fire, the shaft wobbled though the heated air. An arrow shot by any normal bow would have no chance at causing her injury short of...

    Private Tales Dragons and Gravestones.

    Pele lifted her body from the boiling water but the chill air did nothing to chill her. Slick wet scaled quickly dulled as steam rose from her powerful body. She walked around the girl so close that she could have reached out her arm and touched her as she passed by. It was almost a challenge, a...

    https://i.imgur.com/DBPYXYm.png The dragon in the pool lounged, one golden orb on the woman. She didn't move her head from the small slab of rock upon which it was laying. Not even when the girl winced in pain. She listened to everything the girl said. "You seem familiar with my name, but I...

    Private Tales Dragons and Gravestones.

    There were two loud thumps followed by sharp gusts of wind. Two crashes and the sound of stones scattering. The surface of the pools were buffeted by gale force winds. The dragon lurched forward as it checked its momentum. The dragon's huge wings now folded to its side but also turned down and...

    -Music- A challenging roar cascaded through the pines sending a spray of sticky needles to the forest floor by itself. It sounded like a withering jet of flame, the shock of a bolt of lightning, the whipping wind of a hurricane, and the deep rumble of an earthquake all smashed together. It...

    She didn't particularly like orcs. Didn't really like humans, elves, or dwarves for that matter. She despised the orcs only because they're were so many of them. The green skins bred like rabbits and ran hither and tither across her domain. Some even had the gaul to claim that it was their...

    Open Chronicles I came to make friends, and stew, but I've already made the stew

    'Woosh!' went the wind as the trees bent and wavered and a gust folded the grass. A massive red form flew over the canopy casting the camp in tenebrous shadow. Like a brief crepuscular eclipse a silhouette whisked across earth under their feet and... was gone. Just as suddenly as it had come...

    Pele heard what the witch said even as she exited the ramshackle tavern. She didn't respond but instead returned to the dock. The ship she had chartered to make the journey was still there and would return her to Epressa. Would the two meet again? Perhaps, but it would not be that winter. -End-

    "The end of my tail?" Pele's golden eyes narrow as she tries to fathom how giving that up could benefit a witch or help her get to the great ox. "Why do you want my tail?" Dragons in humanoid shape or otherwise were not exactly trolls. They didn't regrow body parts. "Do you realize that you're...

    Pele shifted slightly in her seat as if she were uncomfortable here. "What way and what is the cost then?" she said after some hesitation. After speaking she crossed her arms across her chest, left arm over right. The tavern was relatively deserted by this time though two children were staring...

    Pele blinked and then turned her head to the right so that her right eye could glance to the door over her right shoulder. When she started speaking she turned her head back to face Sigrith. She hadn't any need to ask how long it was until the waning crescent would fly across the sky. Only one...

    'A witch?', thought the dragon. Pele raised a crimson brow in reply before she stepped around a stool, walking on what would have been the balls of one's feet for Sigrith. She started to speak once she arrived at the table. "The great tundra ox, large as a götunn, king of the herds, and regent...

    https://i.imgur.com/ceHYwrs.png Komodi are very rare in the north. There are reasons for that and anyone that had been around the race long enough would know why they stick to the warm dunes and sun bleached rocks of the far south. They are cold blooded and long ago their race was stripped of...
