The
following document details the findings of a Grey Sage
called Ingvar Runetracker who lived in Karse in 1141.
"I first
encountered one of the Living Dragon Society two years
previously whilst wandering in the ruins of the old
EWF city. I had not expected to find anyone here other
than scholars like myself working amongst the remains.
When I got to the main part of the ruins however I found
a group of three people working digging up the flagstones
in the Dragon temple. I shouted at them, thinking they
were looters desecrating the remains and trying to steal
its treasures. They turned around and then I noticed
that they wore strange armour in the shape of dragon
scales and two of them carried Klanths as Dragonewts
do. The third member of the group was not human as the
others were, but was a young Dragonewt. I was somewhat
regretting my decision to call out now as they moved
towards me since I was not a warrior."
"The one
with a weapon called out to me demanding to know
who I was. Nervously I replied with my full titles.
I was not afraid of my lineage and proudly told them
exactly who I was. I responded by asking them who they
were and dmanded to know what they were doing here.
Not expecting a response from them I was surprised to
get an answer. They told me that they were the last
members of an ancient order called the Living Dragon
Society. They had been in the East in a place called
Kraela when the Dragonkill War had taken place and have
only recently returned. Greatly upset at the loss of
the Draconic understanding the remaining members of
the society decided to preserve all the remaining Draconic
lore the could recover. Whilst I did not approve of
the idea of restorring the Empire of the Wryms friends
and all the corruption that it entailed I did approve
of preservation of knowledge."
"The leader
of the group who called himself "The Teeth of the
Dragon" continued with his explanation of what
they were doing. The temples within the EWF each contained
a Dragon's quill from it's spine that marked the domain
of the EWF. They were seeking the retrieval of all the
spines so that the Dragon's indiction against mankind
in Dragon Pass could be removed and the valley could
be settled again."
"I asked
that they stop and tell me more of their society, but
the Dragonewt shook his head saying that for now it
was best that humans forgot. However he said to me that
there would come a time in the future when humans would
need to start to know more again.
