| + | "Bah," said the Historian as they entered the echoing darkness of the vast cave "rumors! Myths! False stories! That's all those are!" He drew his hands to his sides. "I've lived for a long time, and I've never heard any proof of them. I say they are just some mistranslation or a children's story from longago." He walked a few feet, the earth rumbled so that the huge emptiness seemed to shudder. | ||

| + | |||
| + | The historian gulped. "Who.. who is that?" he said in a small timid voice. | ||
| + | |||
| + | "A Story." came the answer above, while the colossal head descended from the heights and the one large emerald-green eye looked at them all. "Just a story." said the Dragon. | ||
