Dragon's Descent

[Ark 2835]

A Dragon's Descent

A group of men wearing clothing fit for those of bandits scale the mountain of Dragon’s Peak, their faces covered in bandannas, teeth grit in determination. At the head of the rugged pack was a boy, no older than seventeen, his young face a sharp contrast to those of his grizzly comrades. His steely blue eyes focused on the statue of the dragon hovering over the sleeping town. As they arrive, covered by the veil of night, they begin their work. Checking for any guards or sentry on the prowl, one man retrieves the black powder from the barrel in his hands. His hands tremble as he sets the fuse to the explosive, one wrong move and his death was sure to be a fiery one.

 

Without a word the men go about their task, throwing ropes over the wings of the dragon. In sync they pull, a well coordinated scheme, executed perfectly. As the stone begins to creak at its foundations the young lad overseeing the job raises his torch, looking around at the darkness and silence.

He drops the torch upon the trail of powder that leads to the explosive.

With a great flash of light and plume of fire did the statue explode, shattered pieces flying away as effortlessly as a bird in flight. The men quickly move off at the commotion, being sure not to be around any longer then necessary.

 

As the sun slowly began to rise, nothing but the ruins of the once proud idol is left to behold the occupants of the fortress.

*Kazimir walks throughout the rubble looking at the fallen statue, "What an amazing sight it might have been to see this giant beast fall." Kazimir kneels down with astonishment inspecting the site.

Brandon Dunwall chuckles to himself. "Timber."

A large galleon rocks back and forth between the waves, lost out at sea. Ostromir sits at the head of the ship, sharpening the great sword lain across his lap.

 

"The Dwarves were not enough.... the elves no match... what of dragons?"

 

The ship continues to rock, the towering black plated man disappears below the deck of the ship.

The Dragon is promptly rebuilt as a seahorse. This is House Horen's new patron animal.

 

 

Long swim the seahorse.

Alexandria Horen sips her tea, "Long swim the sea horse"

[meg 1994]

Madeleine sighs, moving to replace the dragon's tongue flowers with some sort of flower named after a seahorse. If there isn't one, she'll make one.

Rom Visconti, having been in the keep at the time is mortified that such happened on one of the few times he was off watch, he stares at the crater, "Maker be damned..." He utters, before making note to himself of the damage, and moving to fetch his shield. 

[Z3r05t4r 855]

"A seahorse." Silus notes. "I hope you all b-."

[Haribo 385]

Dominic Horen smirks, the Creator smited those who dare speak against the reign of the dragon!

Jeffrey Joe Horen frowns.
