Chapter 1 - Prologue

In the tumultuous throes of celestial battle, amidst the cosmic clash of powers beyond mortal comprehension, a great dragon fought against an anonymous god. With scales ablaze and wings stretched wide, the dragon, ancient and wise, fought not for conquest but for survival. In a final, desperate gambit, the dragon channeled its remaining essence and escaped the divine onslaught, hurtling through the fabric of reality to a distant, uncharted planet.

Upon this virgin world, the dragon's colossal form crashed, its ethereal power seeping into the fertile earth. The impact almost shattered the core of the planet and carved vast oceans, birthing continents from the dragon's very essence. As its majestic body decayed, a shimmering veil of magic enveloped the planet, sparking the genesis of life.

Eons passed as the planet flourished under the dragon's legacy. From the fertile soils emerged a tapestry of life: towering forests whispered ancient secrets, crystalline waters teemed with elusive wonders, and winds carried the songs of spirits yet unborn. Across this primordial canvas, civilizations arose—humans, elves, dwarves, desert nomads, and dwellers of the deep waters—all shaped by the dragon's ethereal touch.

Yet, amidst this vibrant tapestry, the dragon's essence lay dormant, waiting to be reborn. In a humble village nestled beneath the shadow of a towering mountain range, a child named Nereus was born. Unbeknownst to the villagers, this child carried within him the dormant soul of the dragon, stripped of memories and power, destined to discover his true heritage in a world where ancient prophecies stir and dark forces gather.

As the child grew, hints of his draconic lineage manifested—unexplained feats of strength, whispers of forgotten tongues, and an inexplicable affinity for the primal magic that permeated the land. With each passing day, the planet's fate became increasingly intertwined with his own, as forces both benevolent and malevolent sought to wield the dragon's legacy for their own ends.

In this age of burgeoning wonders and looming shadows, the stage is set for a hero's journey unlike any other—a tale of rebirth, discovery, and the relentless pursuit of truth amidst a world shaped by the breath of a dragon.
