Prologue[edit | hide | hide all]

DraconDracon Dracon: My mother has finished preparations for my final test. The finest crystal, stealthily taken from the caverns of Krewlod, has been used to create a great dragon golem. This creature's construction is a feat of magical prowess. To destroy it... is an even greater feat. Yet, I have heard the greatest feat a dragon slayer can accomplish is to kill the rare a mighty Azure Dragon.

Day Title Message
Day 1 Intro Your mother has been training Dragon Slayers for as long as she can remember. It is now time that she train her only son. Your mother knows how smart you are and therefore she can't give you any ordinary task. Approximately 30 or so years ago your mother went to the Festival of Life. The events of the festival inspired her. She took red crystal and, with the idea of a Golem in her head, created Crystal Dragons. She then set them loose in this little valley. The only thing going for you is your ability to train priests and mages into enchanters. You have control of a small village. Your task is to kill the Crystal Dragons with the troops given to you so you can prove to your mother and to everyone else you are ready to be a Dragon Slayer. The task is great so be careful.
Day 8 Lost As you are sitting down by the morning fire you remember the words of your mother, "If you get lost, put your right or left hand on the wall and follow the wall until you get to your destination."
Day 12 Diplomat's Ring Something came to you last night. You couldn't sleep and so you decided to take a little walk. On your walk you remembered the last piece of advice that your mom gave you. She said that the Ring of a Diplomat will brighten your future.
