Ancient Book Dialogue

Hehe, the Sherekhan Iron Mine is overrun by Barbarians.
Anyway, do you think there's any truth in the story about the Green Dragon?
Right! That Shai Leon mentioned something...
We should go rummage through the books of Duvencrune.
I can't wait to find out more. Doesn't the thought of discovery make your heart pound?
We should check for ourselves which party is telling the truth first.
Encountering a Black Dragon can wait.

Gonna check out some secret texts!
Thump thump... Can you hear my heart beat? Hehe!

Ancient Book Completion

The Sherekhan warriors ruled over the Dragons
using the Dragon's might for their own gains.
They slaved the Dragons away, raising buildings symbolizing their power,
and sold off the Dragon's eggs to amass great wealth...
A large and powerful black stone was uncovered from the iron mine,
which led to a rebellious Green Dragon to spread its wings.
The Green Dragon flew up from its nest in Tshira,
headed for the mine, and swallowed the black stone whole.
Its hide darkened,
and its breath's intensity could incinerate any who drew near in an instant.
The now-Black Dragon flew back to Tshira
to protect its eggs that were in the nest...
The Sherekhan swore on their lives that they would take down the Dragon.
The cries of Dragons and the cursed blood of the Sherekhan...
were spread all over Tshira,
which melted down the newly-raised structures along with the woods.
