Thirteen years ago The Hatching started and the dragons started to attack. Everyone was thrown into a panic. Quickly a small group of people that called themselves 'The Guard' came together and started to slay the dragons, thus the start of the Dragon Slayers. Ashley Summers was a poor orphan girl who lived and worked in an orphanage in the Age of the Dragons. One day she was given the opportunity to train to become a part of The Guard, but what happens when some very unexpected events take place that change her life forever. © Sapphire_Dragon
