I'm rugging through the blackest parts of this abyss my body is aching but I push on, finally I collapse on the floor panting heavily sweating, now everything goes black...
I wake up hearing a Dragon's roar of distress I stand up wearily. Staggering to my feet I run to the roar. As I get closer I hear screams of soldiers . I reach a clearing and see many soldiers scampering to reach their shields though many lay hopelessly dead I run up to a dead soldier and take up his flail and shield and without thinking charged toward the Dragon.
I scamper behind the dragon and drive my sword though his back . The dragon roars a final bellow of agony before tuning in to floating particles. It then surges its power and Agony in to me before I collapse in pain.
I finally wake up After 3 days I get out of bed and realise that I was taken to some sort of sanctuary, I look around and slowly move to the door, I hear talking outside, I pick up my sword and used my shield to ram the door it breaks and the guards fall from shock. I run from sanctuary and jump out the window I brace for the impact and close my eyes I then open them as I realise I'm flying though they are I'm flying I took the form of the dragon I killed earlier. I see a mountain up ahead full of dragons swarming it. I land and proceed carefully lots of dragons stare at me i keep walking till I got to what looked like the leader i walked closer and her breathed a steam of hot fire as fast as a rocket and as hot as lava I knew this as i studied dragons as a hobby. i breathed my own stream of flame but my one was a white beam it easily overpowered the older dragons flame. My beam hit the dragon and it collapsed, the rest of the dragons bowed at my presence as i was now the Overlord it wasn't what i expected but i guess you don't always get what you want.
Dragons came to my mountain and have always lost I've kept my empire of dragons and now i will live as one.
