Layers of stone
There weren't always dragons in the Valley. They reappeared rather recently, actually. You’d presume the war between Kelimine and Dreaus to have been the source of their disappearance, thousands of years prior, but no. They were rumored to have killed one another in fact. Described as vengeful, carnivorous demons that ached and itched for a good hunt. Monsters that would scour both land and skies for enemies and when they crowned the food chain, they turned to one another instead, the thirst plunging strong. That’s what the elders say at least. That these large lumps of mossy stone, rolling onto their bellies like a cat near a fire on a snowy day, are the most dangerous predators man has ever known. Clearly man has never known me then. I undoubtedly rival their aptitude for hunting mice, their swift nature at stalking and of course the terrifying bodily mass.
