The Valley's Shelter

There weren’t always Dragons in the Valley. There was a time when Dragons did not exist at all. The only places they were ever found was in myths, as the legendary creatures of Old Earth. Aty had grown up listening to stories that had traveled with her kin into the depths of the void. As she traveled in the vacuum from birth she had listened to tales of great ancients of nature and wisdom. They were the primordial essence of their Home. But there were times in these stories where they were terrible beasts - animals or people transformed by greed and malice into lamentable monsters. Which struck Aty as morbidly comedic - and then as deeply sick - given the birth of the real Dragons.
