The Great Dragon War

*puts on lore master robes and glasses*

*Ahem*

So from what I've gleaned from the song lyrics and the premise of this RP--

Before the empire rose, before civilization took hold of the land, dragons were free and lived without a care.

But then humans being dickheads themselves, they began enslaving/killing dragons, burning their nests, and eradicating their younglings (breaking eggs/infanticide)

The dragons, fed up with the humans, are now waging war against them, led by a powerful dragon warlord (think Alduin or Parthurnaax from Skyrim).

Naturally, the emperor--and the empire as a whole--fabricates lies that the dragons are the aggressors. Possibly, they paint them as nothing but bloodthirsty demons, intent on devouring every living soul and spreading destruction and chaos.

We, the player characters, are vassal lords of the empire. Though we have been loyal for centuries (or however long this empire existed), what we discover in the Blachorian Mountains, and hear from the dragon warlord himself, causes us to become sympathetic. Thus, we--and the small states we rule over--defect from the empire and join the dragons.

Now the question is this: Do we seek conquest---or do we seek peace?

@Flightless_Soul

That is up to your char and also yeah, all this stuff happened during the ʻexpansion warʻ as the empire calls it, and now the empire is stating to to ʻexpand againʻ

@Flightless_Soul

Just one clarification, most of this stuff happened during the 'expansion war ' as the empire called it, and during that war, the dragons ran for the mountains. However, the Empire is gearing up to expand again, and this time they will fight.

*Clears my throat, only to continue speaking with a raspy, unpracticed tone of voice*
Not from here. Here to watch.
*Motions to either side where the battles took place outside of the protective bubble*

@Host

Looks at him dead on
“Where are you from?”
I ask curiously
“Is it a place like this?”

*Glances up with my hands in my jacket pockets and then releases a sigh*
You don't know?

@Host

Absolutely no clue to be honest. My shadow corridor came out here, seems like a different world

*Cocks his head to the side slightly*

You in the same situation?

Myriad Reality

@Host
*Shrugs*
I just showed up here, no clue where this place is, how about you?
*Makes a bubble of solidified shadows around us, muffling the din of battle around us*
Who are you? And where am I?
