A Mission.
Korzar returned to the ruins of Leuronix, seeking out the hooded figure, he had spent many sleepless nights thinking about the fallen kingdom and its people. The story of the great calamity and the Queen's sacrifice had ignited a fire within him.
As he approached the stone keep, he saw the hooded figure standing by the entrance, as if waiting for him.
"I've come back for more," Karzor said, his determination evident. "I want to know more about Leuronix's history, about the people who lived here, and about the great warrior you mentioned – the Dragon Queen Kerazona."
The hooded figure nodded, a hint of a smile beneath his hood.
"Ah, the Dragon Queen. A legendary warrior, feared and respected by all. She was the kingdom's greatest protector."
As they walked through the ruins, the hooded figure shared stories of Kerazona's bravery and strength. Korzar listened, entranced, as the hooded figure brought the ancient kingdom to life.
"But Leuronix's history goes far beyond the Dragon Queen Kerazona," the hooded man said, his voice filled with a deep longing. "The kingdom was founded by the ancient magic users, who harnessed the power of the land to build a utopian society."
Korzar's eyes widened as the hooded figure revealed the secrets of Leuronix's past.
"I want to help," Korzar said, his voice firm. "I want to help you bring Leuronix back to life."
The figure's hooded gaze met Korzar's, and for a moment, they just stared at each other. The figure's eyed were beautiful.. Like a sea of gold, warm like an embrace of a loving mother.
"Then let us begin," The hooded figure said finally, a hint of a smile on his face. "We have a long journey ahead of us, but with your help, I believe we can restore Leuronix to its former glory."
"Our mission.. is to find the stone bodies of the royal family, the dragons can live a long life unlike humans. And the last time the Queens were seen was after the great calamity, taken by the sorcerer and turned into stone. I believe they're still alive, waiting for someone to turn them back."
And with that, Korzar and the hooded figure set out on a quest to revive the fallen kingdom, uncovering hidden secrets, facing ancient dangers, and forging a new future for Leuronix.
As Korzar and the hooded figure delved deeper into the ruins, they came across a hidden chamber, sealed away for centuries. The air inside was stale, and the walls were adorned with ancient carvings, depicting the history of Leuronix.
His hooded gaze swept across the room, as if remembering a long-forgotten past.
"After the great calamity, the people of Leuronix were scattered, forced to flee their homes and seek refuge in distant lands," the hooded figure began, his voice low and melancholic. "Many were taken in by neighboring kingdoms, while others formed small settlements, hoping to one day rebuild their beloved Leuronix."
Korzar's eyes widened as he listened, his imagination running wild with images of the displaced people.
"Some, however, were not so fortunate," Arin continued, his voice heavy with sorrow. "Many were enslaved by the dark sorcerer's followers, forced to toil in darkness and despair. Others still, were consumed by the very magic that had once protected them, their minds and souls shattered by the calamity."
As the hooded figure spoke, the carvings on the walls seemed to come alive, telling the story of a people torn apart by tragedy and destruction.
"But there were also those who refused to give up," he said, his voice filled with a hint of pride. "A small group of survivors, led by the Dragon Queen's most trusted advisor, vowed to keep the memory of Leuronix alive, and to one day reclaim their homeland."
Korzar's heart swelled with admiration for the brave survivors.
"What happened to them?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
The figure's hooded gaze met Korzar's.
"That, my young friend, is a story for another time," the hooded figure said, a hint of mystery in his voice. "But rest assured, their legacy lives on, and their dream of reclaiming Leuronix will soon become a reality. Let me visualise it for you"
