The Invisible Dragon of Carona Pt1

The Dragon exhaled a deathly breath, far beyond the ancient lands of Tartaria. I gazed down upon the feet of the King sat on the Mercy Seat, and asked, why are you casting your children into the Valley of the Abyss, the mighty voice from the Mercy Seat bellowed, I have no rage for those that have turned their feet away from the path I have made. The paths they have made are by their own feet, they wanted to become like gods, and so they conjured up a Dragon with an insidious breath. And the mothers and fathers snarled like hungry lions, and their end of days had them gasping for breath, and Sheol welcomed clan members from across the lands, it was a time of ghastly visions and many cried and prayed. And the merciless Dragon spared no traveler on the right side of the road, nor the left side of the road, and the houses of the sick overflowed, the toil of work became heavier, and the men labored as if they were three. And the people elected new leaders, while the Dragon continued its relentless flight, and the people grew suspicious and believed all the people were like lepers, and the people became fearful of those the Dragon breathed upon.
