In the desolate and barren South, an empire is always in turmoil. The Empire of Dragons.  Majestic and mystical beings, dragons possess a great power that is both astonishing and terrifying. Their voracious flames devour all life in their path. A decade-long conflict between the North and South was ignited by a story that had been long forgotten. A legend born in the dawn of time.

A delicate, ethereal creature, its pristine white fur as soft as cloud fluff, carried a sweet, airy fragrance, offered solace to his weary soul.  The journey of a fragile soul through a chaotic world, searching for the radiant light of peace.
