The
Dragon Master "working title"
Prologue
A
very tall and lean elf sits in the cool shade of a mighty oak tree
deep in the forest. His shoulder length golden blonde hair and golden
tan skin gleaming in the mid day suns heat.
His
lean and muscular body does not have the look of a Herculean type
body of a strongman or body builder but more of a look of that of an
Olympic swimmer or distance runner.
His
elongated biceps, broad shoulders, expanded chest, washboard abs and
golden tan skin gave him the looks of some Greek God of mythological
origin, but still did little to reveal the even greater strength that
lied beneath those hews of steel.
The
strength of his heart and the compassion that he felt for the life of
the world that he lived was beyond compare. Even more so was the
strength of the magical powers that none but he knew that he
possessed, hid mostly to hide his true heritage, underneath the black
flowing hooded robes with gold trim that he wore over that massive
God like body.
At
this moment his robes laid beside him along with his other things he
normally travels with, when he goes about in this large world of his. As he sat he closes his golden eyes and his mind drifts off into the past, his heritage, and how he came to be in this mess he now finds himself.
His
Mother was an Elven Princess that fell in love with a majestic
looking elf, which little that she knew was not an elf at all, but a
gold dragon in Elven form.
The
gold dragon had watched the Elven princess from a distance for a long
time while still in dragon form when she went to the pool to bathe
each day.
From
his lair hidden in a cave about 25 feet above water level and behind
the waterfall that flowed into the pool at the waters edge, he
watched and became fascinated with this beautiful creature that came
each day.
He
then took Elven form to find out more about this pretty maiden that
bathed by his lair as he looked on unbeknown to this gorgeously
stunning Elven maiden that came there daily. What started out as
fascination of this mighty golden dragon turned to love, as the
dragon and the Elven princess got to know one another and fell in
love with each other.
In
a moment of passion the two made love for the first time near the
small pool that the princess bathed each day. The Dragon so loved
this Elven Princess that later, that same day, he prayed to his God
and asked to remain an elf forever more, and lose all his dragon
powers and abilities, his prayer was answered by his God at once and
he was told he would remember his draconic language but in all else
he would forever be an elf, he would also have to deal with any
hardships that went with his request, for if it would ever become
known that he was once a dragon there would be some that would seek
to destroy him.
The
dragon knew that once transformed he would be like any other elf and
have Elven children like any other Elven family so the risk he
thought would be minimal and it would never be known what he once
was, only himself and his God would even know the truth, or so he
thought.
The
Dragon turned elf married the princess the next week, unbeknown to
ether the Princess or the Dragon that the fair Elven Princess was
already with child from their moment of unbridled passion.
Nether
of them thought that their one time together a week before they was
married and the only time they had made love before his
transformation to an elf was made permanent, would be when the
Princess would become a mother to be.
When
the time came for the child to be born, both was surprised that there
was not one child born, but two, twins, a boy and a girl. When they
was first born the two children looked Elven in every way, in every
way but one, they had eyes of golden color! Both the father and
mother had golden blonde hair so that would be normal for the
children to have golden blonde hair too.
The
mother thought the eye color was abit odd but thought nothing of it,
it just made them special and even more beautiful, but when the
father saw those golden eyes he knew in his heart what had happened
and the children were even more special than she even knew. He knew
when they was alone that he would have to tell her the secret that he
thought would never come to light, that they would live out their
lives happy and safe in the city of the elves.
He
now knew staying here would no longer be possible, that their lives
would forever be changed by that one night of unbridled passion. He
hoped that when he told her, that she loved him enough to forgive him
for what had happened and still look and love him the same way as she
did now before the truth was revealed to her.
