zlib_text: Two men. One is searching for answers. One wants to share what he knows.
   
   
  Doughall Maxton heads into the unknown, rocky terrain west of his clan home in search
  of his brother, Seumas, who is a scholar coerced into traveling by a silver-tongued herald.
  Needing to be certain he remains well, Doughall uses his tracking skills to follow him. He
  finds a massive burned out area and tracks he’s never before seen. Following the strange
  markings, he comes to a river crossing and stumbles upon a blue... dragon. Doughall does
  what any warrior would do. He attacks. The beast traps him, but doesn’t kill him.
  Instead, he talks, calling himself Simeon, and offers his aid. What the dragon wants in
  return shocks Doughall, but he’s not completely opposed to the beast’s desires. Still,
  Simeon is a dragon, a creature Doughall had never known existed. Could he be trusted?
