The Ancient Song of the Dragon - written by Orlinanth


The ancient song of the dragon is that in which to hear it you must first find the dragon and befriend it. The danger of this is you must first pass the tests of friendship:

  1. help those in need
  2. thy word is your bond
  3. break not thy bond
  4. betray only thy enemies
  5. absolute power corrupts absolutely

After you pass this you may try to talk to the dragon but be not disappointed if the dragon does not respond to you because he or she has been betrayed by a human at some time in the past. Humans aren't well known to tolerate the unknown so if he/she attacks, back off and lay any weapons on the ground plus show that you mean no violence to their person. If they don't listen lay prone face down and ask to be spared from death. They may listen if not, well say hello to Hades for you shall die most brutally. The dragon may ask for something in return for the song so be prepared for a request of any nature. Often the request if very dangerous and the dragon may decide to accompany you for a while although this depends on the dragon.
