Winter
There weren't always dragons in the Valley. At least that was what the valley's history said. The town wasn't very big, only fifteen houses. There was a baker, a butcher, and a blacksmith. Each spends long days in their craft. The farmer grew fruits, grains, and vegetables on the edge of town. They also raised what little livestock they had.

The Red Sky
There weren’t always dragons in the valley. The world was normal, until He came along. I write this after five years of living underground, in hopes that it gets to someone that can stop Him because I know that I can’t. Trust me, I tried and ended up losing my arm because of it.

Scales
There weren't always dragons in the Valley. The pervasive belief that they had crawled out of the primordial chaos was bunk. Hokum. The dragons had fed the first of the earth-bound races a false provenance, and waited centuries for it to set. A few believed the lie, passing it to their children. Time did the rest. Apocrypha became myth, then myth became common knowledge: Dragons were the first to taste the morning dew, and would be the last to stand upon the earth when it crumbles into dust.

Freedom Dragon
There weren’t many dragons in the Valley. They had been leaving in droves or dying just out-of-blue. It was worrying how quickly they were disappearing because they kept Thorncliff Valley safe. Who needed the authorities when you had dragons to keep you safe, in other words, why reinvent the wheel?

Beacon of Fire: Shifting Fates
There weren’t always dragons in the Valley. At least until we showed up. However, we did agree to assume the human form to peacefully reside in Beacon Valley among the other, actual humans. There are more of them than there are dragons here, but they don’t know that we exist; that we are dragon shifters, or how to tell us apart from themselves. I've often asked myself how they don't notice our refined differences, as our eyes are most noticeably different. They are more almond-shaped, yet slightly larger, than human eyes.
