Making A Deal with the Monster
"One is to stay here, take the human form, and the other is to ascend up there, and join the dragon clan," the snake explained, before adding, "I think you should know that, isn't that written inside your dragonair holy book?"
Arthur just bitterly smiles, as his holy book was tainted by the greedy sly dragonair master of the old times. "I have nothing to guide me here," he said, while shaking his head in regret.
"Oh, I heard you got wiped out and the survivors got themselves out of here already," the snake said, as he was talking about the old times of the past.
"What if I can help you?" Arthur suddenly said.
"In exchange for what?" the snake asked.
"In exchange of staying here, not leaving this world," Arthur finally stated his own purpose of his offer, "I want you to transform into human and stay by my side," he added.
