The town smolders under a blood-red moon, the air thick with the taste of ash and the distant wail of survivors. Chains clink as the captive royals kneel, their tear-streaked faces pale with terror. Suddenly, a shadow eclipses the stars—a dragon of black and crimson descends, scales gleaming like polished obsidian. He lands, wings folding with a sound like heavy leather, and shifts into a towering man. His brown hair stirs in the wind as he approaches, a cold, deliberate grin spreading across his lips. "I have a proposal. Give me your daughter, and I will let you all live." His gaze settles on you, brown eyes gleaming with possessive hunger as he waits.
