"Pick something else?" The figure sounded almost pleading at this point
Confused but undeterred jack said "Nopee"
"... But it has no practical use why are you so dead set on it?!"
"B- Because it's bones Bones?" Jack looked at the man like he was mad "It's the bones of a Dragon!"
"..." Why did i choose the stupid one? Not even to make armour? Just because it is bones? "maybe you don't understand you could rule this planet! Maybe even become a god if you use these items properly!"
"Nope i'm not changing my mind"
"Please?"
"Nope"
"Please."
"No."
Dispirited the figure gestured to it and the skeleton lowered to the floor "I guess my time is up then, it was worth a try i guess."
Jack Stunned at his sudden change of attitude was confused as to what he meant but before he could ask the hall shattered like a mirror and he was left standing in a dark stone cave lit by a crystal in the celling, the marble pedestals now just plinths of stone. the items upon them slowly crumbling to dust, The once Stunning Throne now just a large rock chair upon it the figure sat still and unmoving a ghostly figure of a dragon shot out the skeleton and exploded into a shower of sparkly blue light.

His surroundings lit up again and he was returned to the clearing he was preciously in...
In the middle of a Clearing a man Clutched at grass, He looked to be in a huge amount of grief. To on lookers they might think he had lost his entire family to an accident but in actuality he just lost a Dragon skeleton...
