The Dragon’s Hoard

Category: Fantasy

The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold.

It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.

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

The market was bustling with merchants, their voices a chorus of bargains and boasts.

The fire had burned down to embers, but neither of them moved to stoke it.

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

She smiled, but it did not reach her eyes.

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

The end.
