The Covetous Nature of Dragons: Kingdom of Altus - Book One

Three ancient red dragons breathe death from above down onto the island nation of Lucidium. Gilgarix, Gygaxus, and Gardyloo, spawn of Azarakesh the Wicked, King of Chromatic Dragons, descend on the people below intent on killing every last soul, with one exception. King Akashi, ruler of Lucidium, mysteriously disappears into the safety of the castle, protected by an ancient force field, while the rest of the citizenry melts in the hellfire of dragon breath.Sapien the Wise, Master Sage of Altus, sees all with remote sight, a divine gift from the god Vilagir. The events on Lucidium, thousands of leagues away, fills Sapien's heart and mind with a vision of doom. As if three massive red dragons wasn't enough to fear, Sapien feels, in his mind's eye, that another, more powerful being is pulling on the strings of these dragons. They are nothing more than insignificant puppets to the dark god Zorgoth Mor.The path to take is obvious to Sapien. Sending an army to Lucidium would take weeks and the result would be uncertain. Instead, Sapien must go straight to King Asir, the mightiest human on the entire planet of Sphaera. Possessing the intelligent, and enchanted, blade Dhoradil and god-like power granted by Vilagir, God of The Balance, King Asir rules Altus and decides the fate of many.In the end, the fate of Lucidium will be fought for by one hundred of King Asir's best soldiers, all of whom will be teleported using the gathered might of a sage coven led by Sapien. These soldiers will not fight alone against the dragons, fire giants, elementals, and salamanders of Incaendium. With them, Sphaera's mightiest heroes, the Vedikir, will lend their strength in this epic battle to save Lucidium and its most precious treasure.If mortal beings are incapable of determining the outcome, then the gods themselves must battle one another for victory. Zorgoth Mor, ruler of the fire plane of Incaendium, materializes to fight Vilagir, the most powerful god in all the realms.The Covetous Nature of Dragons is the first book based on, and in, the epic fantasy planet known as Sphaera. Sphaera is a Dungeons & Dragons/Tolkienesque based planet for all fantasy lovers to explore. Every continent, every ocean, and every single race, monster, and god will eventually be revealed and explored in upcoming stories and in the FREE content contained on HTTP: //THEANCIENTDRAGON.COM, the home site for all things Sphaera
