A Personal Anecdote, by Derek Campbell

Recently, a friend of mine (for some strange reason) decided to start writing a bit of a short story. It is a fantasy tale of magic and wonder, reminiscent of traditional Norse Mythology with a bit of a Game of Thrones feel. Enter Yae Segour, a kingdom of people edged deep into a stone volcano after one man slain the dragon of the volcano. After a merge with the magic realm of Airaht, the protectors of the keep (known as the Yaenai) learned magic to further protect their home. After all that exposition we are introduced to a peculiar child and his mentor Balathor, to which the child had just slain a dragon in a very unconventional way. Aside from that, not much else happens in the first chapter, but have have been promised a possible second chapter. I found the story very intriguing, and the fact that a good friend of mine started writing it made it all the more interesting. NOTE: the story has entirely created by my friend, and i merely had the joy reading it and making suggestions. Overall, i'm very excited for the next part of this epic.
