You walk hesitantly through the cave entrance, wondering what mood this dragon will be in, and hoping you do not get caught in a fireball! You squint in the dim chambre, trying to make out your surroundings. You suddenly stumble, only to fall right into the nose of a dragon!
'Zlutik,' you hear a deep voice boom. Light streams from the walls of the cave. The dragon in front of you stares down. Her face then brightens in a grin, showing you many, many sharp teeth. 'Hullo there,' she greets you. 'Hullo Rikale, Kalika. Is this one of these human visitors you've been going on about?' The huge red dragon chuckles slightly. 'It sure doesn't seem like one of those I remember. It's... pleasant. I guess they don't make them like they used to.'
Kalika nods at the dragon, whether in agreement or acknowledgement, you aren't about to guess. The dragon's attention drifts back to you. You bow politely and introduce yourself.
'Why, it has manners, too! Imagine that! And more than most of our young today. It is nice to meet you, human, especially one so polite! I am Drakus, a Rubyscale dragon. You probably have never seen one of my kind, and unfortunately, you probably never will again. We are very rare these days...' Drakus sighs and breaks off. Her attention begins to wander, and before long, she is asleep. You tiptoe out of the cave.
Drakus was found in the Skyhaven Hunt
