Re: The Cleansing
Hewitt The dragoness smiles, showing off her two foot long teeth.
She climbs slightly, heading for a a mountaintop, still many miles away. It seems to be covered in naked, grey and black trees.
-We are soon to reach them my friend.
As you close in you can feel the sensation of someone watching you and a second later you understand that the watcher is above you.
The newcomer is a dargon, maybe half your age, and considerably smaller who carries a rider in a saddle. The rider has a tail, but you can't see anything else, since it is covered in armour...scales and skin from dragons...
Minutes later you reach the mountain. It has a small building on its top, with a giant entrance, aparently leading steraight into the mountain. The trees does seem completly dead and are varying in colour from darkest black to lightest grey.
By the entrance to the mountain there are two creatures, one mansized and one dragon.
The mansized is humanoid but with a tail, it doesn't have a nose, instead it has snakelike nostrils.
It greets you without making a sound.
Your companion lands elegantly, a couple of metres away from the dragon. They both bow their heads and the humanoid bows. All turn to you in anticipation....

Godwin's Law prov. [Usenet] "As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one." There is a tradition in many groups that, once this occurs, that thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress. Godwin's Law thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper bound on thread length in those groups. However there is also a widely- recognized codicil that any intentional triggering of Godwin's Law in order to invoke its thread-ending effects will be unsuccessful.
