Chapter 7 - The Battle with the Dragon

The dragon was massive, with scales as black as midnight and eyes that glowed like embers. It let out a deafening roar as the Brotherhood approached.

The battle was intense, with the dragon using its massive wings and razor-sharp claws to attack the warriors. Erik used his sword to deflect the dragon's blows, while his fellow Brotherhood members used arrows and magic spells to weaken the beast.

Despite their best efforts, the dragon seemed unbeatable. Its scales were too thick, and its fire breath was too powerful. Erik felt a sense of despair creeping over him as he watched his fellow warriors fall one by one.

But then he remembered something he had learned during his training with the Brotherhood. The dragon had a weakness - its belly was unprotected by scales. Erik knew what he had to do.

He charged forward, dodging the dragon's attacks and slicing at its underbelly with his sword. The dragon let out a deafening roar of pain and rage, but Erik kept going, striking again and again.

Finally, the dragon fell to the ground, dead. The Brotherhood cheered in triumph, and Erik felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. He had helped to save a village from a terrible threat, and he had proved himself as a warrior.
