Chapter 9

The death of a dragon for the first time since the dawn of creation was a bitter reminder of what arrogance can do but it also stroked the flames of vengeance in the hearts of the dragons.

The draconic council has made decision, Dragons will go to war. Only old dragons above the age of 350 wil participate. Around 300 dragons along with Tiamat and rest of the draconic council gathered around a goblin outpost built near the periphery of the eastern forest.

The outpost was recently built and goblin workers were present all over the place building more walls or reinforcing the already existing ones. Around 500 ogres armed with iron spears, axes and clubs wearing armor spiky iron armor were also gathered. Around 200 scarabs were also present with the smallest one being 3 meters long and the largest one being 12 meters long.

Both the scarabs and goblin have only seen dragons aged below 250 years as all the olders dragons were few in number and never left The first lair built on Mt.Draconia. The ogres shivered but they were also grateful that such massive monsters were on there side. The scarabs on the otherhand remained unaffected which only confirmed my suspicion that there were more powerful scarabs hidden in the desert as compared to the ones we have seen so far.

A large ogre who stood 10 feet tall approached Tiamat. "So your the mother of dragons, But being in your presence personally truly is quite breathtaking". Tiamat was startled at first as this was the first time since an lesser creature approached her nonchalantly.

" Ah so you have also learned the ability of creating an avatar little god, You'll be of great service to my father", Tiamat spoke with pride in her monstrous draconic voice which would send shivers down anyone's spine. Gobbo was taken aback as he never expected a mortal creature to look down on him a god. But alas Gobbo couldn't speak back as even though he was god possessing an avatar he knew he couldn't beat Tiamat. That's right an elder dragon was capable of going toe to toe with an avatar of god and emerge victorious.

"Warriors be honoured today you are blessed with the opportunity to serve my mighty kind. Today we shall set as example for the world that may it be orcs, goatmen, pigmen or even the gods themselves can survive after challanging the Dragons. Today we shall burn away the filth that seeks to stain our lands, Today the puny god who slayed may kill will fall." Roared Dagon the great black dragon.

From the his tone it was clear that dragons would never let go of their pride. The ogres roared in excitement but the scarabs were not happy. From the way Dagon was talking it was clear that he was not talking to comrades but rather servants. This was the first time the scarabs witnessed the elders of dragon kind and they were not happy.The orcs began their assault but they were met with the clubs and axes of the ogres. The orcs expected that they would crush the puny goblins but they were crushed instead. Orcs were not quite intelligent but they were not stupid either, they immediately made a strategic retreat but while retreating they were ambushed by scarabs who sprag from the ground draging those unfortunate to be caught to a slow agonizing death. Those who avoided the scarabs were meet with the wrath of dragons as they were burnt into crisp. The first batch of invader was annhilated.

But there was no time to celebrate as soon the ground could be heard rumbling, The ogres were soon ambushed by Dark colored orcs riding on what appeared to be horse sized wolves. They descended on the ogres, the ogres lacked shields and used their arms to defend themselves from the giant wolves jaws but all did was make them lose their arms. Then came the dragons but instead of trying to save them they breathed fire indiscriminately scorching friend and for alike.

"buahhahaha hahahahahhahahahahhaha". A loud laughter was heard, then Appeared avatar of Azog

" Killing your own not even we orcs do that, I have alredy slain of your smoky lizards and wouldn't mind slaying another larger smoky lizard". Azog mocked us but he was also right as what sort of monster kills their own allies.

"Those were servants not allies little god", A thunderous voice came and then descended Tiamat the mother of dragons. She finnaly got the opportunity the chance to face the slayer of her kind and she was going avenge her fallen kin.
