...but the most popular dragon god is, by far, the one known as Thårra, goddess of storms, war, and agriculture. It is she who is most invoked in times of need. Perhaps unusual for a god, she is quite invested in mortals, not only dragons, and not above getting involved in their troubles. Odwyna may …

Empire of the Dragon
The Empire of the North, that great kingdom which has stood for countless generations of Rhynodd, fell during the reign of the Hervald Dagmar, the Unwanted Queen. She was not meant to take the White Throne, that right was to go to her elder sister, the ill-fated Odwyn Strongwing. When Dagmar assumed the throne following …
A People of Myth and Magic
“What're the Enisirran islands?” Sann flattened his ears. He thought he might have heard the name before, but he wasn't sure. “The most beautiful place in the world, my boy,” Hiarnan said, turning back to include Sann in the conversation. They had an even wider smile on their face, matched only by the smile on …

All sorts of dangerous creatures lurked in the undergrowth, unseen by foreign eyes. Few non-Varthurstling were ever allowed outside the border towns. —excerpt …
The Svanling Dragons
The Storm Witch huffs, her thin nostrils flaring as cold air blows over Hycath, sending down her spine. She swallows again. Some stories claim the northern dragons can freeze a person with their breath, and she hopes she isn’t about to discover the truth of those stories. —excerpt from The Voyage Tale of Hycath Once the …
Dragons, dragons everywhere!
The Dragons art a Peple unto themselves. Blessed with long lives and near endless Pols of Magike, it comes as no surprize that the first Rhynodd beleeved them to be of the Devin. It did not take our Ancestres long to find that the Dragons were no Gods, but just as Mortel as they, and …
