elsewhere as her parents forge and she sleeps,
towards the dragons bones someone begins to creep,
hatred of the world in his cold and dead all black eyes,
as he raises his dark purple staff and the dragons bones begin to move and rise,
he seems to laugh at the destroyed town he now stands within,
as the dust and soot of loss now blow onto his wrinkled and grey skin,
as the dragon fits together the deep indigo crystals on the top and along his staff continue to glow,
as around him a powerful skeletal dragon continues to come together and grow,
the bony neck lowers down to fit into the dragons skeletal head,
its nothing more than unthinking bones without any scales or blood to shed,
the wind blows through the grey mans indigo robes and rattling its every shining dragon scale,
armouring him and making most attacks against him fail.
small bone by bone the dragon slowly pulls together its massive tail,
wasting not time moving it around and making it flail,
the ground is already shaking with the dragons movements and sheer massive size,
as the strange grey man simply laughs maniacally at the dark evil he has caused to rise,
and from all around the ruined city the many small wing bones the grey man uses his magic to collect,
finally the dragons wings pull together with its every part being hardest to connect,
finally the Massive skeletal dragon is complete and it cannot help but release a massive roar,
the sound was so loud no person for miles could continue to slumber or snore,
onwards the grey man declares to his new ally to prevent anyone from living free,
as they continue marching together towards Sirlarafend the nearby city.
