&#8211; THE NOBLES LAUGHED WHEN THE CHILD PUT HIS HAND INTO THE DRAGON FLAMES"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon fire did not disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It grew stronger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crimson flames spiraled around the child like a living storm while ancient heat consumed the center of the arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The nobles could barely breathe beneath the pressure crushing the royal hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some tried standing\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">but invisible force slammed them back to their knees instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even armored royal knights struggled to keep their swords from shaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the energy flooding the arena felt alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Watching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Judging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The barefoot child stood motionless at the center of the Dragon Altar while burning scales slowly spread farther across his arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The glowing Dragon Seal pulsed brighter beneath the flames.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And behind him\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the gigantic dragon silhouette slowly opened its eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two enormous molten eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The arena instantly erupted into panic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIT\u2019S REAL!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe seal actually awakened!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cImpossible!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Priests stumbled backward while sacred scrolls scattered across the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One elderly priest collapsed completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo child has awakened the Dragon Seal in over eight hundred years\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king slowly rose from his throne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the first time all night\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">fear appeared on his face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because every ruler of Ashkar knew the ancient prophecy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the Dragon Seal returns\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the throne of Ashkar will kneel before fire once more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king\u2019s voice echoed shakily across the arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat is your name, child?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The boy slowly looked upward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash drifted around his body beneath the burning storm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c\u2026Ash.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The moment he spoke\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the dragon flames exploded again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BOOOOOOOOM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A shockwave tore across the arena walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Massive cracks split the black stone pillars surrounding the chamber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several nobles screamed as balconies partially collapsed above them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon silhouette behind the child became clearer now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Long horns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gigantic wings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A burning crown of fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then suddenly\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the creature moved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fire dragon slowly lowered its massive head behind the boy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like a beast recognizing its master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thousands of people froze in absolute terror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king clenched the arms of his throne tightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A royal advisor near him whispered fearfully:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYour Majesty\u2026 that gesture\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king already knew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every ancient painting inside the royal vault showed the same thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragons of old only bowed to one bloodline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bloodline of the Dragon Kings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same royal family supposedly exterminated centuries ago during the Crimson Purge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">General Kael stepped forward immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A giant commander wearing black steel armor lined with gold dragon markings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His hand instantly moved toward his sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYour Majesty,\u201d he growled quietly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe need to kill the boy now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several nobles nodded desperately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHe\u2019s cursed!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat power destroyed kingdoms!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But before the king could answer\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash suddenly screamed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dragon Seal burned brighter across his arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The child dropped to one knee as violent heat erupted through his body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pain flooded every nerve inside him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It felt like molten iron pouring through his veins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon flames behind him spiraled wildly out of control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fire dragon roared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the entire arena ceiling cracked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Massive stone debris rained downward from above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People scattered screaming across the chamber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cRUN!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe arena\u2019s collapsing!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the child barely heard them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because strange memories were suddenly flooding his mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A burning battlefield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gigantic dragons soaring through black skies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A king wearing armor made from dragon scales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And beside him\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">a woman holding a small child beside a river.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash\u2019s eyes widened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The memory vanished instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another vision replaced it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The royal palace burning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Soldiers slaughtering servants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A crying woman desperately escaping through hidden tunnels while carrying a baby wrapped in black cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And above the child\u2019s blanket\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">glowed the same Dragon Seal now burning across Ash\u2019s arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The boy gasped violently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those weren\u2019t dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They were memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">General Kael suddenly drew his sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The massive blade reflected dragon fire across the arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cARCHERS!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Royal soldiers immediately surrounded the altar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dozens of bows aimed directly at the child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king hesitated only briefly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then his face hardened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEnd this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The archers released instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But before the arrows could strike\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the dragon behind Ash moved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A gigantic wing of fire erupted outward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FWOOOOOOOSH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every arrow instantly melted into ash midair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The heat wave slammed soldiers backward across the arena floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several nobles fainted instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon slowly raised itself higher behind the child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its flaming body now stretched nearly to the ceiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ancient dragon roars echoed through the chamber continuously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And beneath the burning noise\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">another sound emerged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A heartbeat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Deep beneath the arena itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BOOM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BOOM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BOOM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king\u2019s eyes widened slowly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the sound was not coming from the child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was coming from under the royal palace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then suddenly\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">all the dragon statues surrounding the arena began glowing red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One after another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ancient symbols ignited across their stone surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The priests screamed in horror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Dragon Vault!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo\u2026 it\u2019s waking up!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">General Kael grabbed one priest violently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat are you talking about?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The terrified old man pointed downward beneath the arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere\u2019s another dragon buried below the palace\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Silence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even the king froze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because that secret had been forbidden for generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Far beneath Ashkar\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">sealed under countless chains and ancient magic\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">slept the final true dragon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The creature the first kings imprisoned after the Dragon Wars nearly destroyed the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And now\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the Dragon Seal had awakened it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The arena floor suddenly cracked open beneath Ash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CRAAAAAAACK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Massive fissures spread through the altar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Molten red light burst upward from the darkness below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The child stumbled backward as ancient heat exploded through the chamber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">something enormous moved beneath the palace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The entire capital trembled violently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Outside the arena\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">thousands of citizens screamed as towers shook across the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Church bells collapsed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Windows exploded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And deep underground\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">a roar shook the kingdom itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not magical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not illusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A real dragon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The nobles panicked completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWE\u2019RE ALL GOING TO DIE!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSeal the palace!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cKill the child!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But Ash barely heard them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the Dragon Seal was burning uncontrollably now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The scales across his arm spread toward his chest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His glowing eyes reflected molten gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And for the first time\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the child understood why everyone feared him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon was calling him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not as prey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As blood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fire dragon behind him suddenly dissolved into swirling embers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then every flame rushed directly into Ash\u2019s body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The boy screamed as dragon fire exploded beneath his skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BOOOOOOM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A massive shockwave annihilated the Dragon Altar instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stone pillars shattered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Golden statues collapsed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even the king was thrown backward from his throne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash slowly rose through the smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Floating above the destroyed arena floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flames circled around him like living serpents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dragon Seal now covered nearly his entire arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the child spoke words he did not understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An ancient language forgotten for centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The moment the words echoed through the arena\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the underground dragon answered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ROOOOOOOOOAR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The palace floor exploded upward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thousands screamed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A gigantic black claw burst through the stone beneath the arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"561\" height=\"392\"

of fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The true dragon was waking up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it was directly beneath the royal family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king stared in horror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because he finally recognized the child\u2019s face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not fully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The shape of his jaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He looked exactly like someone the king once betrayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A woman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A princess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king whispered slowly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c\u2026Elira.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Twenty years ago\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the royal family had slaughtered the Dragon Bloodline to prevent the prophecy from

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Or so they believed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But one infant disappeared during the massacre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A baby prince hidden by Princess Elira before the purge began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king\u2019s face turned pale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash slowly looked toward the throne through swirling fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And suddenly\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">another memory hit him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A dying woman kneeling beside him in darkness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her hands covered in blood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her voice trembling softly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNever let them use the dragon again\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tears slowly formed in Ash\u2019s glowing eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She had hidden him his entire life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not because he was cursed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because he was the last surviving Dragon Prince of Ashkar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The underground dragon roared louder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More of its colossal body erupted upward through the arena ruins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Black scales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Molten cracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

horror\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the ancient creature lowered its head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And bowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The entire arena went silent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even the king looked frozen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because dragons never bowed to humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only to their king.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash floated slowly downward through the burning smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon\u2019s gigantic eye remained fixed on him alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inside the child\u2019s chest\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">fear and rage battled violently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These people murdered his bloodline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Destroyed his family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Turned him into a starving orphan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon could destroy all of them with a single breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And part of him wanted it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dragon Seal burned brighter instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Responding to his anger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon slowly opened its jaws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Molten fire gathered inside its throat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The nobles screamed in terror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But then\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash remembered something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His mother smiling beside the river.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her voice gentle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPower only matters when you choose what NOT to destroy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The child closed his eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Breathing hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fire around him slowly weakened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dragon paused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Waiting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king suddenly fell to one knee before the child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The entire arena gasped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ruler of Ashkar lowered his head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not from pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe were wrong,\u201d the king whispered shakily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash stared at him silently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">General Kael looked horrified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYour Majesty!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the king ignored him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because he could finally see the truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The prophecy was never about destruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dragon Seal did not awaken through hatred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It awakened because the child endured suffering without becoming cruel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king slowly lowered his crown onto the broken arena floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then bowed completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One by one\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the nobles followed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then the soldiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then the priests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thousands kneeled before the barefoot orphan surrounded by dragon fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not because he forced them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the dragon itself had chosen him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash looked across the shattered royal arena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same people who mocked him moments earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now trembling before him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The child slowly lowered his burning hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the dragon fire vanished instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Silence filled the chamber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The massive dragon behind him slowly folded its wings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then dissolved into glowing embers drifting peacefully through the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dragon Seal remained glowing faintly across Ash\u2019s arm\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">but no longer burned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The underground dragon stared at him one final time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then slowly descended back beneath the palace ruins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The earth sealed behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gone once more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The kingdom remained completely silent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ash quietly spoke his first command as the last Dragon Prince of Ashkar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cRebuild the homes burned outside the lower walls.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The nobles blinked in confusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The child looked toward the terrified crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAnd feed the orphan children first.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No revenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No executions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The king slowly closed his eyes in shame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the starving barefoot child possessed more mercy than every ruler before him combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And from that night onward\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the people of Ashkar no longer remembered the Dragon Ceremony as the day the Dragon Seal awakened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They remembered it as the night the entire kingdom knelt before a child\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">who could have burned the world\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">but chose not to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The
