The Fallen Cities

Nix read the passage for the third time. "Who is the author?"

"Someone named Zylanex." Ronnie scooted her chair towards his and slid a second book closer. "This one says the names of the fallen Sky Kingdom cities and their Dragon Masters."

[Fallen Cities of Everspire]

Elynmoor: Yandro

Chyanama: Zylanexor

Dyrekstad: Hierophant

Goralpri: Bo'raz

Aquarius: Neptiphago

Icaraphet: Tharaka

Verynzai: Unaqoir

"That's very similar to the name of Chyanama's Dragon, Zylanexor." Nix glanced up at Ronnie. "Nice cross-referencing. What else?"

"These cities are kept in the air with Dragon Marrow, not blood or mana like we were thinking." Ronnie turned a few pages and pointed to some handprinted writing in the column. "The worse possible fuel, unlike blood or mana, each dragon only has a finite supply of it."
