Chapter 1 The Truth Revealed

After hearing Targon's story of his journey in the human world Targon's old subordinates, former servants and family were amazed with how much Targon had endured with Targon stating should not praise him so much after all he does not just have blood stained hand but his whole body is drenched in blood thus would lead him to say can someone like me be loved and/or respected if one is even deserving of it. Then Sunset would the grab Targon right hand with her hoofs and would say that would it does not matter what you did in the past because the person Targon is today is the one she fell in love with, then Cobalt would then say that Sunset is right because Targon has done so much for them he could have chosen the same path as his grandfather but instead chose a better path, then Victor would say that throughout your journey you had to make many hard choices but you did for the right reason and chose to live with what ever consequences came from the action you took, finally Targon's mother Saphmira simply state that your father would so proud of you as am I. After hear what everyone thinks of him Targon refocuses to the reason why he return home, Targon would then ask the Targonians help to fight the Strifians to which Timaeus would state he only had to ask, Spyro would then ask when do we move out to which Targon would state there is one more thing to take care of before they could march on the Strifians which was to recruit the Draconins to which Slyris would ask Targon how he was going to recruit the Draconins to his cause to which Targon would say he has a way to convince them after hearing this the Targonians would put their trust in him some would as to accompany him to which the Drachenritters would be enough of an escort but there was another reason why he is bring the Drachenritters it is because they do not know the Draconins which means they would not cause any unexpected trouble, after hearing Targon's explanation they understood his reason. Targon and the Drachenritters would arrive at the hiding place of the Draconins with help from Gorhaligon who somehow knew the hidden location of the Draconins. While the Draconins would be mistrustful of Targon they would show Gorhaligon respect being the chronicler of the dragons and the realms elder, with Gorhaligon's help Targon would be introduced to Draconins who are of good character and are willing to hear Targon's request. The Draconins Targon would be meeting are called Uldorakis, Elefserian and Siddari three of the most powerful Draconins. Targon was talking to the three Draconin leaders he would hear two Draconins eavesdropping on their conversation, after the two dragons were revealed Siddari would apologize and would introduce his children Marci and Davious to Targon would say there is no need for him to apologize but he would say it in Draigar which shocked the Draconins in the room, Targon would then explain the evil that wiped out the dragon clans is returning which Siddari understood what that meant which would lead Targon to ask will he join him to which Siddari agreed to aid him in order to protect their people, Uldorakis and Elefserian would also agree to aid Targon but they first had to take care of the other Draconins with half of them having questionable character, Targon would explain that he had a plan. Days later Targon would return to his forces with the Draconins with Siddari as the leader, Targon would give the order to his forces to begin the march on the Strifians, mean while at the Strifians hideout the transport that Aldoranis and Animar used had shutdown after the two had returned to their hideout then Animar noticed a blinking light on the door of the transport, after all the Strifians gathered around the transport a video recording of Targon, the recording Targon made would stating if they are hearing this message means that they know that Targon has return also learning that Targon was the one who killed Strifus and Scourge, the recording would state by time this recording ends Targon's forces would have surround their hideout. After the recording had ended the Strifians would try to ready themselves for battle but it was already to late because Targon forces have not only surrounded them but also outnumbered them. Before the Strifians could arm themselves with weapons Targon managed to knockout three quarters of their forces without having to kill them as for the rest of the Strifians Targon gave a chance to surrender which most do but a some refuse to surrender. The Strifians who refuse to surrender were Malefor, Ancalagar, Malefor's son Igniar, Vahdrakis, Malefor's daughter Melysia, Shruikiar, Kalameetia, Thordakis, Gostira, Urgostus, Morghula and Glaurungar. Targon would manage to restrain nine of them with only Ancalagar, Malefor and Igniar would be the only one left for Targon to defeat, Targon would manage disable Ancalagar while Malefor just dropped to his knees because he knew that the Strifians have lost but Igniar was very dogmatic believing that his father surrender was him betraying Strifus was about to kill him but then Targon would restrain Igniar which would lead him to ask Targon why does he care about who gets killed to which Targon states the cycle must then Targon would then break Igniar neck before Malefor. Malefor would rush to his son who Targon had just killed, Malefor would then angrily blame Targon for Igniar death to which Targon would state he may have killed Igniar but it was Malefor who got him killed over obsession with avenging the tyrant king not knowing that the Strifians crusade is based off a lie which got everyones attention. What Targon was about to reveal are three secrets which revealed would shock not just the dragons but the whole world. The first secret that would be revealed would the real name of the tyrant king which was Byssrakious Dracirian, after hearing the family name everyone recognized it being the name of the oldest and most powerful of the dragons which supposedly were wiped out by the demons which Targon would answer say officially they were but unofficially the last head of the family and his wife gave birth to Targon's grandfather and have he live under a fake name to let the demons believe they had wiped out the dragon clans, Sunset would then realize that clan Dracirian were elemental dragons which would explain Targon has elemental powers why only the dragons had elemental power because after the war between Gortaz and Xenoz the dragon would keep the knowledge of elemental powers a secret until someone wise enough could guide them on how to use the elements, Targon would also explain that the mane 6 had already awaken a small portion of their elemental powers which would shock all Equestria, using his time powers Targon would show every how the mane 6 really defeated the former enemies of Equestria, Targon would reveal the true nature of the elements of harmony which in reality purifying agents. Hearing this revelation Sunset asks how do you know this to which Targon would talk about the crystals he found when he was a child that somehow healed him which they all remember Targon mention it which Targon would call them Primestones is what the dragons called them but to Equestria they are Ambrosia crystals, hear that name Cobalt then realized the Ambrosia which according to lead holds powerful heal magic which is how Targon's broken bones were healed all those years ago, Targon would explain that many people have been using Ambrosia crystal already not knowing their true nature which made a lot of people curious which Targon explained that the elements of harmony from Equestira, Farasi, Caninia, Ornithia, Abyssinia and Cunabula. The nations that Targon talked about were shocked to learn the true nature of the elements and tree of harmony. Then just as Targon was about to reveal the second secret a dragon named Gorhagar appear which some people were surprised because they thought he was dead then as Targon would tell everyone to stay where they are then would throw his late brothers dagger towards Gorhagar which would cut his shoulder everyone then asked what did you do that for to which Targon state to look at Gorhagar which everyone does and not only see lavender colour blood but Gorhagar change into someone else which would cause everyone to ask who is he and what did you do with Gorhagar which Targon answers stating that Gorhagar has been dead every since the fall of the tyrant king's Citadel and would bring evidence in the form of his ghost which has haunted the ruin tyrant king's Citadel like so many who die under the tyrant king's rein and would state isn't that right Stendhal, after hearing that name they ask your name is Stendhal and you have been posing as Targon's uncle to which Targon explains that Stendhal has been posing as his dead uncle but in fact Stendhal is his uncle which surprised everyone which Targon would explain that Stendhal is his gandfathers first born shocking everyone yet again which Targon would explain that after the war Targon's grandfather would receive a prophecy that one day he give birth to monster that would be known for such cruelty and brutality, after learn of the prophecy Targon's grandfather tried to prevent it during which he learn that Stendhal contracted an unknown disease, seeing the child did not have much time left he would leave in place in the mountains never to see him again little did he know he only would fulfill the prophecy because unbeknownst to him Stendhal would be found and raised by demons which would eventually lead to Stendhal awakening his demon powers through an eruption of negativity emotions which would turn Stendhal into a demon dragon. Stendhal would return to the place of his birth to Targon's grandfather horror, for years Stendhal would pose as Targon's grandfather after he had returned to his homeland. After hear this everyone horribly shocked realized that Stendhal is the real tyrant king which Stendhal confirms while laughing maniacally. Stendhal would try to reveal something about Targon was stop by Targon when he said that Targon is aware that the vampires are the strongest of the mid-tier demons in fact the vampires are the one who keep all mid-tier and lesser demons in line, after hear Targon's statement Sunset would ask rhetorical question which Targon would state that ever since his grandfather become a vampire he also became artificial demon then when his father and uncles were born they became half demon then when Scourge and targon were they were quarter demons, after hear Targon's explanation everyone was majorly shock to learn that Targon was part demon. Targon was then asked how did he know he and his family had demon blood to which Targon would say his grandfather told before he died and would also say that Victor was the vampire who made him the blood drake, hearing the Victor is a demon shocked everyone then Targon would explain a part of the legend of the blood drake specifically about the vampire, the vampire gave his powers to the warrior dragon in return the warrior dragon would help the vampire get revenge on the people who killed his family. The would agree on the terms of their contact the warrior dragon get the power to save his people in return he helps the vampire in his quest for revenge. Victor would then explain the reason why he was exiled and his family executed, after hearing Victor's explation that some demon were growing dissolution with the war on the races and Victor would be the first to speak out which would not only to his exile but also the execution of his family, just before he died Targon's grandfather asked Targon to stop Stendhal which Targon promises. As Targon ready himself to fight Stendhal he would reveal that he has been preparing for this day for five thousand years which surprised the Draconins, the Strifians and Stendhal then as Targon was about to strike Stendhal his sword was blocked by a mysterious dragon at first glance but then would see it was his brother Scourge which he could believe that is alive since Targon killed himself in fact they the day he killed Scourge was also the day he first awoke his elemental powers, Targon would then ask his brother to stand aside because his battle was with Stendhal but then Scourge revealed that he had known about Stendhal true identity since they day he was made his enforcer which shocked everyone even Targon which would lead Targon to ask why to which Scourge would answer that he hates Targon because Thoron chose Targon instead of him to Targon would state that Scourge is the one who drove away his father not Targon, then the two would ready themselves for a duel with them both going all out. Minutes into the duel Scourge give the signal to fire metal harpoons that pierced Targon's chest at first it looked like Targon was minutes away from the grave but then the impossible happened Targon got up tore the harpoons out of his chest shocking everyone because no can survive with five harpoons in ones chest, Targon would then begin to fight more aggressively kill the ones who fired the harpoons in matter of second Scourge would try to fight of Targon even using his power of the element of space only to find Targon can also control the element of space even reality which he would to use to summon other version of himself from other realities, Targon suggest that Stendhal retreats to which he refuses no matter how many troops Targon has Targon would then reveal the three secret that would shake the dragons and this world which is Gorhaligon's real name which is Draconis Dramillion which everyone did not believe at first but then Gorhaligon/Draconis Dramillion would ask what lead Targon to find this information to Targon explained that first no one knows who old Gorhaligon/Draconis Dramillion but the concrete proof was Gorhaligon/Draconis Dramillion scales that were on the ground since Gorhaligon/Draconis Dramillion did not need them any more Targon did an experiment that he had conducted ever since he return to this world which was if scales could lose their colour after a certain amount of time which was proven true after testing it on his own scales which bleached and turned white, Targon would see what colour Gorhaligon/Draconis Dramillion scales were in his youth. Targon learned that Gorhaligon/Draconis Dramillion original scale colour was black specifically night sky black which was the same colour as the progenitor of the dragons. After hear Targon case Gorhaligon/Draconis Dramillion confirm that once along time ago he was call Draconis Dramillion heaing this revelation shocked everyone even Stendhal. Stendhal would then retreat with his troops except Scourge who was killed by one of Targon's from an alternate reality. Before the fourth secrete of this world could be reveal Targon's doppelgangers would tell how their timelines came to be such as ones were the mane six never meet and where Targon became the crystal warden, Chieftain of the Everfree forest, the sentinel of the sun and moon, the saveur of Equestria and the renewer of the world. One of Targon's dimensional doppelgangers would tell how after getting healed from the Primestones he would leave home and find his way to Equestria were he awakened his element powers and learn to control them and would return home and free his people from Stendhal. Another of Targon's dimensional doppelgangers explain the he killed Stendhal after his father execution and framed Scourge for his murder. The final dimensional doppelgangers would tell the story of how he and Thoron learn about Stendhal the day Targon returned from the Primestone cave and succeeding in free the dragons by kill Stendhal and Scourge then Targon would go on a journey to discover himself but with any restraints and would eventually find himself in the human world during the year 3000 BC. Targon's final dimensional doppelgangers timeline would be similar to prime Targon's timeline but with some changes such as the western empire did not collapse instead the territories of the empire were made vassal states and when the Germanic tribes migrated to west they integrated which would lead to the creation of Celtic/Germanic kingdoms and Italian peninsula would follow creating the Ostrogothic kingdom of Rome. Another thing different was the Scandinavians would make long lasting settlements in America but would only go as far south as Ontario but would settle as far north as Alaska. Another difference was the black death was prevent. Other then things would match up with Targon primes time in the human world until after world war 1 the Nazi party would be formed and after Vladimir Lenin death Stalin was killed which lead to the creation of a very different Russia. Hitler was successfully assassinated while world war 2 would happen but over the course of the war the Nazi leader would be assassinated one by one which would lead to the overthrow of the Nazi Reich. The events of the first twenty years of the twenty first century would be very different from Targon prime timeline such as a second civil war in the U.S which after Tidal informed government about technology his father invented that would give them an advantage over their rivals, the second U.S civil war would lead to the augment which was a war better normal people and the genetically altered which eventually lead to World War 3, what start internal conflict in one nation would lead to deaths of 30% of the human population and mass extinctions of 600,000 plants and animals in other world they committed globe suicide, those watch the screen that show the fallout of WW3 were horrified at what they had seen then the Targon who survived WW3 would state that after the fallout he would lead the rebuilding of the human world which he would get a large support from many surviving politicians, military personal and civilians. Under Targon leadership it would take half a decade to rebuild the human world which would to the creation of three nation the United Cooperations of America a nation that is a constitutional cooperation with Dragonic Solutions at the head with having people still have say in this new government which becomes known for economics, technical innovations and having the finest educational institutes , Eurafrasia Union which is known for have a military strength equal to the United Cooperations of America and having a hybrid government combining democratic republic, constitutional monarchy and oligarchy. Eurafrasia has elected officials would run the daily matters of state and deal with international affairs while there is a royal council have one member from every surviving royal families. The third nation to arise from the fallout of WW3 would the Island states of Oceania aside from the name it has pretty much remain the same before the war it would primarily focus on internal matters but would act as a mediator between America and Eurafrasia in fact there would be three United Nation building in the world one in New York, the second in Brussels and the third located in Singapore. As for Targon after WW3 he would be made secretary-general but he prefers the tile of Chief representative. Just before Targon's dimensional doppelgangers returned to their world they would whisper something to Trgon prime which was one thing each timeline had in common specifically an event. Draconis Dramillion then ask Targon to show everyone the photos he took of the family trees during which is Siddari is the child of the last of clan Norvagan and clan draigar which meant that both Targon ad Siddari are the last of the true blood, Targon would show everyone how he recruited Draconins, Targon with Draconis help would gather those of good character and will to hear him out, after learn Targon bloodline and speaking the Draigar that were will to hear Targon out and would help him with plan to convince other who are just like like Siddari but had very little power and Targon had plan to deal with the Draconins who had questionable character. Targon plan was to have one the Drachenritters that came with him to fight in the Draconins area to gather all there, during the match all those who will to follow Targon would be on stand by until Targon gives the signal. One of Drachenritters who is called Road Flare would a dragon name Slag who is some what ugly, very obnoxious and arrogant as the duel began many blows go back and forth between the then Road Flare helmet was smashed revealing his face which Targon immediately recognized him as Blazer the son he thought he had lost, Blazer would begin to inflict serious wound on Slag with Blazer eventually killing Slag then would break off Slags horn and showed it to the crowd then a dragon named Smug would enter the arena with some troops and would order them to kill the half bread then Targon entered the arena in front of Blazer which Smug demanded to get out of their way so they can deal with the half breed mongrel to which Targon would state that his son is no mongrel in Draigar shocking the crowd because it was the first time they heard an outsider speak Draigar then Targon would tell then his true identity then would give the signal which was an order to the Draconins join him, Targon would say in Draigar to cut down all those who disgrace the name Draconins and for all those who have been oppressed for so many years to raise up and claim your freedom then Draconins began turning their weapons toward people who are like Smug and start killing then Drachenritters begin to open fire on those who to escape by flying as more and die Targon would dracarin which mean burn them which Blazer burn Smug with his flame until Smug was nothing but ash, after the last Draconins who like Smug were would say gather your forces we march on the Strifians after hearing Targons order the Draconins began to shout roars of war then we. see the march of the Draconins which had the largest army of the four dragon faction half of it made dragons while other half were made up of hybrids which totalled a hundred thousand. Draconis would then reveal the fourth and biggest secret that would shake the dragon and this world after going through the photos one photo caught everyones eyes specifically those who came from the human world, what caught the attention of the people who came from the human was the last photo which showed a word from the human world which Sangreal but then Targon corrected them stating it two word not one which is Sang Real which Jagged explain it literally translates to royal blood then those from the human world began realizing what the forth secret is which Draconis explains it is his true heir which made almost everyone curious about what he meant but those from the human world began to connect the dot fast Corvine the secret Draconis is talk about is Targon then Sunset is the first to truly realize what Draconis talking about, Sunset would that prince Targon is one of the last live descendants of Draconis Dramillion this realization would shock everyone. In order to make if Draconis Dramillion implication is true they would use a special Primestone which is used to test ones elemental aptitude but before they start Aurora as Targon if she had demon blood in her vein to which he explain there certain factors that determine if demon hybrids have demon blood in their veins one factor is how much negative emotions you have throughout ones life Draconis would interject state both Targon's and Aurora's case are special, Draconis explains that the reason Targon was a sickly runt was because the demon blood was in conflict with the primal blood which had no winner but that when Targon ate that Primestone all those years ago it made the primal blood dominate and when Aurora's egg was brought to Thoronis it would do the same but much sooner in fact it purge all the demon blood from her veins then Targon would state he already knew Aurora had no demon blood because he used his heightened senes to hear heart beat and found she only has one heart then he would explain that demon have seven heart which is what make demon different from other races. Aurora would be the first to take the test which show that she had an aptitude for fire, water, earth, air and light which she was equivalent of a dragon clan leader which would lead Targon to give Aurora their fathers amour and sword at first she say that Targon is the oldest so it belongs to him to which he counters stating if she wears the amour and wields the sword it be like their father is fight along side them after hearing his explanation she accepts his gift, it was now time for Targon's test and it would show the same results as Aurora red for fire, blue for water, brown for earth, green for air, yellow for light. Then a purple light glows which means Targon has an aptitude for shadow it is explained that those who can control six elements mean that one is prodigy of the dragons which is a very rare occurrence then a white light glows which mean Targon has an aptitude for the element of time shocking everyone because in all of dragon history there has only been one who could control time then a black light glows symbolizing Targon's aptitude for the element of space and finally a grey light glows which symbolizes Targon's aptitude for the element of reality. Draconis would then tell a story about the origins of the demon, Draconis would talk the primordials which would include Ignatian, Undina, Stratios, Demetius, Auroria, Dargian and Chronos which would also include Expensious the primordial of space and Materia primordial of reality, Targon would comment that theres a tenth primordial in fact it was the first primordial and the one responsible for creating everything. Draconis would begin the story say after the primordials died Draconis would honour the promise he had made to Chronos to protect this world and guide it down the right path. A few years after the primordials deaths Draconis fall in love with a crystal blue dragon named Celestinya, the two would then have three child years after the death of the primordials and Draconis was building the dragon civilization while helping the other race build their own civilizations little did Draconis know that the a being a pure evil would appear and would become a threat to the whole world. The evil would be known as the father of monster Grogar would managed to enslave the ponies, Draconis would warn Grogar that if he continued letting his monster rampage he would face the consequences which angered Grogar because he believed that he was the most powerful being in this world which would lead him to create a monster strong enough to kill a dragon and test on Celestinya and would succeed in killing her which would enrage Draconis so much that he managed to kill the monster that killed his queen the other dragon gathered around Draconis asking what had happened but see their dead queen they would get their answer, Draconis would the say Grogar will pay for this, the other the dragons then realize what Draconis was about to do and would support it because at that moment only one thought was in all their mind which was revenge which would Draconis lead to strike a deal with Gusty the great. The deal the two had made was Draconis would help Gusty free her people and in return she would help Draconis get revenge for queen Celestinya death. That event in history would show the power of true dragon fury. Grogar would be defeated and banished to an other realm but little did everyone know that it would cause a serious problem for future generations, when Grogar was banished to the alternat realm he would transform into a new being after an eruption of negative consumed him, from that day on Grogar would be known by a new name that would be know and fear by those who hear it, the new name Grogar would be called would be the demon king. Hear the origins of the demon shocked everyone then Caraxar one of the Strifians who joined Targon would ask the invasion of demon centuries ago were part of Grogar's revenge to which Draconis answered the rhetorical question, then everyone hear someone humming very loudly then a hood figure walk towards them with Targon recognizing him immediately. The figure would remove his hood and state I finally caught up to you Targon, Balerionious another one of the Strifians who join Targon asked him who/what is that figure hat has appeared to which Targon would state that it was a ghost a being he never thought he see again. Targon would explain that he first met that being in the human world during fights on the battlefields and would see throughout his time in the human world which would lead Targon to discovered that the being that had been following him for five thousand years was the living embodiment of death itself which he calls Thanatos. Sunset would then ask why is Thanatos here if Targon is still alive which he state he has never been a cat person because he find the idea of cats having nine live absurd to which Sunset says that a myth, then Thanatos would say he never like medicaine he find the idea of saving people from death repulsing but he hate immortals most of all the very idea of things living for all eternity disgusting which Thanatos believes that the alicorn princess and Targon does not value at all thus decides that they do not deserve to live. Targon would then state it is me that you want thus the two would begin to duel which would lea Targon be injured so bad like a guillotine got caught in his rib cage which horrified everyone, Targon would manage to hold his own for a while but then would be knock to the ground with Thanatos about to deal the finally blow then Targon would counter but then looks like Targon getting ready to turn things around he surprises everyone by throwing down his sword which would lead everyone to ask what is he doing to which Targon would state that he will never be able to defeat Thanatos because death always wins in the end that said just because he can never defeat Thanatos do not mean Targon every stop fighting for this one life he alway had, Thanatos would then raise his weapon to Targons neck asking him that the life he has is just one life to which Targon states that during his time in the human world has taught him that immortality is an illusion nothing lasts forever everything dies nations, plants, animals, people even the sun which how many world will end swallowed in fire. Hearing the last part of Targon state startled everyone from his homeland as well as the people from the other nations of this world. Thanatos would lower his weapon from Targon's neck stating to live his life then stating that will meet again to which Targon already knows and accepts then Thanatos looks towards Draconis say that his time is almost at an end to which Draconis states he knows but still has one more thing to take care of first. Targon would then use his powers of the element of earth and metal removed the ruin of Stendhal citadel after arriving, the reason why they return to the ruined citadel was because there is something that Draconis has been protecting for centuries which would be a tomb holding all the fallen members of the dragon clans then Targon would head toward sarcophagus that at top of a staircase in the tomb then Targon would pull a switch bring the sarcophagus to the same level as the other sarcophagi then would read an inscription which is in Dragiri which translated says here lies Daeneria Dramillion the mother of dragons, Targon would walk towards his allies saying now do you understand why I brought all you here to which they all understood then Targon would kneel before Daeneria's sarcophagus with all the other dragons following suit then Draconis recite poem about the location of Daeneria's tomb and would speak a forgotten part of the poem which is about when the dragons gather in Daeneria's tomb the true heir of Draconis would appear before them, you will know the one because the heir bares the colours of the elements on the heirs skin then Targon collapses in then everyone see burns appearing on his body but not just any burn rainbow colour burns, the rainbow coloured burns would appear on Targon's wings, his tail, his arms, his legs, his back, his torso, his neck even his face specifically the side of his face that was burned by Scourge. It was in that moment that everyone would acknowledged Targon as Draconis true heir.
