It was a normal day in the world of Altaria; it was a world of magic and wonder beyond the likes of which had never been seen. A dragon flew across the sky of Altaira with a great whoosh of its wings going over the beautiful lush flora and fauna going over the landscape. With running Draco runners, big lizards used for running that had big red sails like a fish and slender build, long legs with excellent muscle and reptile skin log jaws jagged teeth, they had bright orange and green coloring down to their long tails, the dragon pulled to the left past the great mountain that is worshiped by many, said to be a testament to the gods. Behind the mountain was the kingdom of the white moon it was a prosperous kingdom that was bustling with citizens in the marketplace, churches with their bells ringing letting people out of the then main part of the castle with roaring soldiers lined up in two columns looking up at a long balcony that stretched out a bit waiting for something.
Then three people came onto the balcony lined with guards; two of them were young in their prime; the one in the middle, however, was old and mature. But all three looked official, as God had sent them. The three came up to the end of the balcony; a gold pedestal was there beside it; on each side were banners that bore a wolf with a clawed left eye as an insignia that was for the house of Lucius, the royal family of the white moon kingdom. The King stepped up to the pedestal with great vigor and glee standing before his subjects he coughed and with a booming that even the creatures in the forest could hear "king Lucius; good tidings my loyal subjects on this auspices' day we welcome 200 new faces into the ranks of my royal knights you should be proud I know I feel proud for even one of you" the knights started chanting "awoo" at the king in excitement. But his majesty held his hand to stop them, so he starts talking again "king Lucius, but this day isn't just for me, it's for the citizens you are going to protect from years to come that they will know they got the best protectors in all of Altaria!". The knights started hugging, chest-bumping; and locking hands as brothers; because of the king's speech, the king, and his kids started walking back but then suddenly a gust of wind and a dark shadow went over the king.
A red figure flew over the king into the kingdom; it was a dragon, bright crimson scales also having a 15-foot wingspan being 10 feet (3.05 m) long; he was a huge dragon; no one dared guess the weight; the royal kids were in awe of the dragon, even the knights but a foreboding happened to the king. Hurried to the pedestal, but the dragon started its rampage burning the knights to death; the rest scattered outward "king Lucius; run" the dragon burned the castle also hitting it with a club of a tail taking a huge chunk out of the castle hitting the balcony. The balcony started cracking, as the king grabbed his boy and girl. "King: Adora, roman come on we got to get out of here" he hauled it towards the exit. But the balcony gave crumbling apart, the kids, and the king fell then suddenly the dragon swung in, grabbing Adora; the king saw his get taken, so he tried to call out but couldn't. Before the dragon left she burned some cities and their citizens, along with the marketplace, to cause havoc; then the dragon flew back off to the mountain, and out of sight, it was put chaos in the kingdom of White Moon.
It was an hour before the king woke up on a pile of rubble, but a spear stabbed into his shoulder by one of the dead knight spears, everyone was scrambling about not doing anything; just being more frightened than a woman. She dressed all in white, matching her she was beautiful, with heels made of white looking steel and a rapier it was the thinnest sword you could think of with a dreaded look with those beautiful lips and whites the woman shouted "the woman; men fall in line and help the king" you could tell she was of a higher rank by her voice and fierce but well-endowed body. The knights ran over and went to help the break of the spearhead pull the king off "king Lucius; owww" in a big yell of pain: "king Lucius; owww find my son please find my boy". The woman understood and went looking for the prince, scouring through the rubble of the balcony and the pieces of the castle that were all around, till she heard heavy groaning under some big slabs of the castle wall; so she screamed" the woman: hey over here, help me lift this.
Many knights ran to the woman to help her, to grab each side of the rubble and go "1.2.3" "ugh" hastily lifting it off, showing it was the young prince in a beaten state. But the worst injury was his busted leg, showing bone. A couple of knights brought over cloth and wood stretchers as they put the king and prince on the stretchers, hurrying them inside the throne room, which was set up as a triage area for everyone after the incident. The knights put the young prince and king on some empty tables beside each other. But the prince was unconscious, and couldn't do anything while he was in pain, worried about his son checking on him every 5 seconds. Then the woman came by to the king "the woman; hello your Majesty how are you feeling" He looked up at the woman, smiling, seeing a familiar face grabbing her hands with a warm embrace.
With a cheerful look, the king said "king Lucius; captain Silvana my sweet welcome back I didn't know you were here" The girl smiled back at the king, "Silvana; it is fine your majesty ordered the guards to help during the aftermath". The girl reassured the king, holding his hands tightly and smiling lovingly at him, "Silvana; rest now your highness the king regent will rule while you rest up" She got up and walked away from the throne room into a more serious room. It was huge almost as big as the throne room this room was used for more serious matters big banners of the royal crest and tapestries of war on the walls describing the history of white moon with handcrafted chairs that bear the look of royalty than the center table that held a global orb map of the entire world of Altaira down almost to the tiniest speck of dirt.
Silvana sat down at one of the chairs, waiting for the king regent to enter the room; some guards ran into the sides of the walls; then a man with a beard almost as long as a human body was wearing golden robes and a golden ornament crown, meaning this person was the king regent. But he was getting on in years; for he was very old, behind this man accompanied three of the king's advisors; two women; a man one of the women, was big and busty; she had gray hair and horns with dark brown skin and also emerald eyes, plus lovely Whitish spread-out scales covering her body, which added to her beauty with a silken white robe and long ears that had silver covers with diamonds shaped into grass into them. The other woman was more bureaucratic at first sight, with red robes, a slender body, a modest waist, and bust, she had glasses on her turquoise blue eyes; she had long brown hair brown top of it was, I would say, an artist's hat; it was small and perched perfectly on her head balance academic and sexy. Then there Is the last man, who was striking broad shoulders carrying a sword at his side, with striking black robes with golden hair and an eye patch on one eye the other eye was brown, as you could tell his robes had star buttons on them, signifying his rank as commander of the king's army. These important people helped the king rule the kingdom to say they will rule in his absence when Silvana noticed she got up quickly and bowed to the king's regent "Silvana: morning regent I am here as required of me" the regent raised his and in an old crony voice, "regent: it's ok my child no need to be so formal with me this a matter we all have to deal with so naturally, a captain of the king's guard would attend" she smiled and came over to the king regent helping to the table to sit down.
The others sat down as well; Silvana standing by herself, "Silvana: so we can now get this emergency meeting underway" they clapped while Silvana, the king regent looked around slowly, "king regent: Captain Silvana how many wounded are there so far" Silvana looked at the regent in a distressful look "Silvana: reports and casualties are still coming in but as it is now probably Five hundred and steadily increasing" all three of the council members shook their head. The woman with the horns then spoke up, "horned woman: do we know where the dragon has fled" Silvana shook her head "Silvana: no councilmen Sedina all we know is it flew back over the mountain" then the academic woman spoke up, "geeky woman;:what of the amount of damage to the city how much will it probably take to repair the kingdom" Silvana looked up with disappointment "Silvana: it would take more than half the treasury just to fix the entire kingdom, Mrs. Elanora". suddenly the golden-haired man slammed a first down onto the table; "golden hair: what about getting princess Adora back and killing the dragon" he said in a very angry manner; Silvana and Elanora were frightened by him but the two didn't talk; so the king regent "regent; this is not the time to launch a full assault with resources do have some patients dorwin" the man got and walked out of the room pissed off. Everyone took a breather; the king-regent then spoke "regent:we will adjourn this meeting for now" everyone got, but the regent then said "regent: not you Silvana" she looked as she had done something wrong; the others left the room; she wondered what she did wrong "Silvana; did I do something wrong regent" he walked over to Silvana and put his hand on her shoulder "regent: no my child you did nothing I have a task for you". She looked at him happily "Silvana: yes lord regent" he smiled back at the young woman, "regent: I need to you formulate a strategy find ways to get us more money or get us more men or people capable of hunting down that dragon do you think you can handle it" Silvana looked shocked and said "Silvana; yes I will" the regent chuckled a little with excitement, "regent: the council will convene at dawn gives us a while to figure what to do" she bowed and left the room. When Silvana left the room, she went to her private quarters in the castle; it was a dingy office. but it worked for her when her little attendant came, a small male that wore leather armor and a shaggy helmet that looked like a wimp. Silvana sat down, taking it easy; then the man spoke up "attendant; reporting for duty ma'am" Silvana looked at the weak male "Silvana: thank you for coming skellin" she motioned the man to sit in the chair in front of her desk.
Silvana then addressed the boy with his orders "Silvana; skellin I need you to get the list of casualties, then go to the were guild to get a fix on the cost and get me the kingdom financial records" the kid got up and bowed "skellin: yes of course" skellin left the room to gather the materials as requested. It wouldn't be until hours later that Skellin came back into the with materials in hand, putting them on Silvana's desk with a stack of papers as tall as a tree stump Silvana looked at the paper and prayed for someone to put her out of her misery "Silvana: you can go skellin I got it from here" skellin left the room. Silvana went through the pile of papers piece by piece; they ended up scattered across the room, and she yelled "Silvana; Goddamn it" with so much frustration wondered how in the hell she was going to get everything done then a knock on her door came and Silvana looked up: "Silvana: come in" the door slowly opened and came in Sedina in a tight black dress laced reveal one of her thick calves she wore black sandaled heels Sedina slowly walked to Silvana's desk. She smiled looking at Sedina "Silvana: oh sorry M'lady I was busy" look at the room that was in shambles Sedina stepped and crumpled papers with her heels Sedina looked and sat flipping her long gray hair behind the chair regardless if it was old she still luster in it and she was gorgeous "Sedina: don't worry child I was here just to check up on you I heard that old man regent gots you trying to find ways to get more men and other things" Sedina said in a very sympathetic way. They both laughed pretty hard "Silvana: thank you, lady Sedina" Sedina at the young woman "Sedina: so how fucked are we" Silvana looked away disappointed "Sedina: ouch! that bad" Silvana looked back, "Silvana: there is no way possible for us to do anything" Sedina looked at Silvana "Sedina: don't worry something will come up just be patient" suddenly, a knock on the open door; both the girls looked at the open door, seeing Skellin. Silvana got annoyed quickly, "Silvana; what do you want Skellin you better have a good reason to interrupt me at this most important hour" Skellin came in nervously, thinking he might die if he breathed "Skillen; sorry captain Silvana I got this from this from the warden of the tombs" Silvana looked confused "Silvana; what the hell do they want". Skellin held the papers in his hand to his face; Sedina laid back in the chair with her leg crossed over the other; she was annoyed.
But Silvana was getting angry, so Skellin spoke up "Skellin; cause of the dragon attack they are concerned about some prisoners" Silvana looked confused more "Silvana; what about them" Skellin was even getting aggravated that the warden made him do this at all "Skellin; they want to do a transfer of their most dangerous criminals out to the fortress because and I quote fear of escape and mass murder" both the girls looked at Skellin, with a raised eyebrow and a skeptical look. Both the girls then spoke "Sedina & Silvana; huh" then Skellin raised his hands to do an "I surrender please don't kill" type of thing "Skellin:I don't know the warden said to personal gives these prison record so you can have the supposedly most dangerous people in all of Altaria don't go free and band together to commit chaos sent to the fortress" Skellin came to the desk and put the papers on Silvana Desk, then left the room, but Silvana clenched her nose with her index and middle finger pissed off. Sedina looked at Silvana "Silvana; what am I going to do with this" Sedina got up and went behind the desk giving Silvana a light. "Sidena; if worse comes to shove if the dragon comes back we got cannon-fodder for it". They both laughed pretty hard, but something clicked into Silvana's head when she thought about her words and it hit her "Silvana; Sedina you genius" Silvana kissed Sedina's forehead and ran out with the papers in hand "Silvana *Yelling*; Skellin get over here now" on the top of the throne room there was railing and one of the rooms Skellin ran out of one hauling it pretty quickly slipping and falling down the stairs with belt unbuckled seeing his bare white ass and a undid shirt "Silvana; goddamn it, you fuck boy get your sorry ass in gear we got business to do go to the fucking warden and tell hIm I will take charge of the prisoner's hurry". The man got and hauled it out of the throne room quickly going to the warden Sedina came out of the office and walked up to Silvana asking "Sedina: what's up Silvana" Silvana turned around and said "Silvana: sorry lady sedina but I have a favor to ask" the woman skeptically accepted "Sedina: fine but you owe me a bottle of wine" Silvana smiled "Silvana: thanks I need to gather the king regent and general dorwin".
Sedina wondered why "Sedina: fine but you got to explain your madness later" left the room trying to father the men and the future of white moon.
