The Dragon’s Hoard

Category: Fantasy

A cold wind swept across the plain, carrying with it the scent of distant rain.

There were stories told of this place, and none of them ended well.

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

The map was old, its edges frayed, but the path it showed was unmistakable.

The letter was still on the table, unopened, as it had been for three days.

The sword was heavier than she expected, but she did not lower it.

She had learned long ago not to trust promises.

He had been waiting for her for what felt like an eternity.

The end.
