It felt like a million elephants were stampeding on his head. He subconsciously tried to raise his hands to clutch his head but that only reminded him of the state that his entire body was in.
He endured the pain for a few more seconds before his eyes closed and his body grew limp. He passed out, for the second time in a matter of hours.
As soon as he fainted, a drake appeared in front of him. The drake had giant black scales which covered his body. The scales were so large that the lines that outlined each and every one of them would be fairly visible to the average person who looked at it.
The drake was about seven feet tall, quite small for a dragon. There were several spikes which started from the back of its head and trailed down to the back of his tail.
