Part 2: The youth of Glint
It was 8 years since the serpent Rislle Sissle found a baby dragon. Glint is now a young, playful dragon.
Glint was playing outside with the birds, trying to catch them, but the birds always jumped one branch higher then glint could reach. She was having lots of fun, until Rislle shouted: “Glint, come inside, it’s time for you’re study hour!”
Glint moaned, but she obeyed and went in the house of the serpent.
“Today, Glint, I’m going to teach you the strong technique of crystal magic.”
“Oooooh, very interesting”, Glint replied sarcastic.
“Indeed, it is, young apprentice, very interesting indeed.”
Glint wasn’t listening and looked trough the window, following a bird with her young, bright eyes.
“Glint!” Rislle shouted.
“Yyyees?”
“You are very ungrateful, I learned you to walk, to talk and to think for yourself, so you could be wiser then any other dragon, maybe any other creature on this planet, and this is my thank?”
Glint apologized , and she was ready to learn about that ‘Crystal magic’.
“Crystal magic is the purest form of magic that exists. It has the power to heal you, deal damage to your enemies, and protect your friends.”, Rissle said.
“Cool!” Glint replied.
Suddenly Rissle fired a strange looking orbat Glint and she got hit by the Crystal orb spell.
Glint felt very weak now, and she couldn’t move a muscle, or say a word.
With a movement of Rissle’s hand, the strange feeling disappeared as fast as it had came.
“wwwhaatt was that?”, Glint shouted scared.
“That, my apprentice, was a Crystal orb, a strong hex spell that is part of crystal magic.”, Rissle said.
“Whoa, can you teach me that?” Glint asked excited.
“Not now, you need to find inner peace and strength first.”
“How?”
“You’ll have to go deep into the crystal desert, to the shrine of The gods, where you will face a challenge, so hard that no creature has ever survived it.”, Rissle said dramatically.
“How did you learned Crystal magic then?”, Glint asked smart.
“I am a serpent sapiens ultimatus, it was my birthright to learn the magic, like every serpent that folks this planet.”
“I see…”,Glint thought and then asked: “where do I find that shrine?”
“It’s 100 years walking from here to the east”, there you’ll find it.
“100 YEARS!?”
“You are a dragon Glint, 100 years is your youth, you will return to me as an adult”
“If you say so.”
“Here take this artifact, it will protect you during your journey.”
Rissle gave a strange looking artifact to glint.
“Now go, glint, and may the force, err the gods be with you!”
Glint smiled, and then turned to east, ready for her 100 year journey…
