Dragon

By Ecnea

My brethren and I once ruled the heavens and the earth. Soaring through the sky and swimming through the depths of the oceans. It has been like this for millennia. The humans call us greedy as we have amassed great amounts of gold and precious gems over time. They hunt us so that they may take that which we have collected. Slaying each and every one of us without mercy, just to get some gold. Something they seem to value more than life. Are we the greedy or is it the humans who are truly the greedy ones?
