Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

In the giant square of Tal Khaled, there is a huge stone sculpture hundreds of meters high in the center area, a black dragon roaring towards the sky, and the giant dragon sculpture in the Dragon Palace where even the gaps in the scales can be seen clearly. In comparison, this giant dragon sculpture seems a bit rough, because it was made directly from a huge mountain stone under the spell of the dragon tamer. It has not been carefully crafted by the sculptors, and it looks unusually simple.

This is the legendary father of dragons, Black Calzaranos.

The square was filled with people, a rough estimate of at least tens of thousands of people. The closer they were to the position of the Dragon Father, the higher their status. Randy, High Priest Val, High Priest Adaeus, Supreme Mage of Flame Tower, Agg Seer...

The giant dragons active in the sky of Caledor are all standing in their places. The dragon halberd guards are standing next to the sculpture with their halberds. Representatives of all walks of life in Caledor are coming here.

After hundreds of years, the Great Council of Caledor was opened again.

The person standing in front of the huge sculpture of the Dragon Father is none other than Imric.

After Minas Nir and the dragons at the edge of the square roared, announcing that the Great Council had officially begun, Imric stepped forward and faced tens of thousands of Caledor's people.

"Today, we stand here. We stand on the land of the Caledonians, on Tal Khaled, the land where our ancestors irrigated every corner with their blood and dignity."

"In front of me are the citizens of a silent kingdom. We are Caledonians, and we use honor and bravery to represent the spirit of each of us."

Under the influence of the spell, Imrik's sonorous and powerful voice was transmitted to everyone's ears, and they could personally experience the emotions in the Dragon Prince's words.

"Since Prince Tetris was shamelessly murdered on the Deserted Island, the sky of Caledor no longer has the echo of the dragon, the smoke of the Dragonspine volcano no longer fills the air, and the kingdom that once symbolized the warrior has entered silence."

"After falling into silence, others tried to ride on the dragon's neck, thinking that they could tame the dragon with a collar. They wantonly trampled on our dignity, the dignity of a brave and glorious country."

For a moment, the square fell into silence. No one could not understand the meaning of Imric's words.

Since Titlis became the Phoenix King, during the last battle to expel Druzi, he was bewitched by the Holy Sword of Kane, went to the Sword Altar of Kane alone, and died mysteriously.

According to the statement from the Phoenix Court at that time, it was the Druzi assassin who killed him, but the White Lion Guards were highly suspected. This incident had a huge impact at the time. Caledor was about to split from the Phoenix Court and enter independent state.

If it weren't for Val's oracle, there would only be eight kingdoms in the Phoenix Court, but the Caledonians still feel shackles. A nation full of glory will not forget the hurt of the past.

Since Imric was crowned the Phoenix King in the name of his grandfather, the Dragon Tamer, Caledor has contributed the most to fight Druzi and Chaos, but has gained the least. Several princes have died in battle, and the number of Dragon Princes has increased from Dragon Taming to Dragon Taming. The 3,000 people in the revolutionary era have now grown to 800 people now. Many families can only put the weapons and armor that symbolize family honor into exhibition halls because all their men died in battle.

"You may say that we only need to defend Caledor and the Dragonspine Mountains. The glory of our ancestors is enough to overshadow everyone except Guardian Aenarion."

"But, I want to tell you! The Caledonians are never satisfied. Even after countless generations, our glory can still be engraved on every rock in the Dragon's Back Mountains!"

"As long as there are people who want to trap the dragon with a collar, this glory will not exist; as long as those people still want to peek into the power of the dragon's court, this glory will not exist; as long as the dragon's roar does not exist. Such glory would not exist if it could be heard in every corner of Ulthuan; it would not exist as long as the smoke of the Anvil of Vaal only drifts in scattered clouds across the Dragonspine Mountains."

As an invited guest, Princess Adira was standing in the corner of the square, listening to Imric's words. Although he was talking about Caledor, Tyron Locke was not the same. The damage caused by the Great Schism has not been recovered to this day. The nobles crawled on the civilians to suck blood, and the Inner Ring Kingdom provided some sparse support to allow Tyranrok to resist the Druchi army.

In the square, a strong murderous aura began to spread around the sculpture. Are the Caledonians idiots? No, never, they just don't want to pay attention to politics. Don't they know that they are resisting Druzi with the lives of their countrymen? If Ulthuan is the most dangerous location, then only the west, the long-term battle in Nagaryth They all have the Caledonians as the main force, and those inner ring kingdoms are just sitting back and enjoying the results.

I only heard Imrik continue to say, "What we need is not a trivial charity! It is not the equipment made by the priests of Vaal with their lives in exchange for those abominable gold leaves! It is not the warriors of Caledor fighting bloody battles on the battlefield. In the end, What you get in return is disrespect!”

Suddenly, Imrik raised his voice and shouted with great passion.

"What we need is the glory that belongs to Caledor! Caledor has been silent for too long, letting them forget who this peace comes from! My father, your prince Mikhail, was killed by Druzi After killing them, all they got were some disgusting gold leaves and those gems from merchants! They were full of stench!"

"If Ulthuan cannot give us respect, the Caledonians will get it in their own way!"

"As the patriarch of the dragon tamer family, the dragon lord, and the prince of Caledor, I declare that I will summon all the dragon princes and soldiers to awaken the sleeping dragons, relight the Vaal Anvil furnace, and start the war on Lustria in five years. colonial activities."

"This world is ours to rule as we please. We have earned this right at the dawn of time. It was we, and we alone, who successfully defeated the forces of Chaos. Drive them back to the Demon Realm of Chaos. So those lower races must understand this fact and submit to our rule - if they are not willing to obey peacefully, then they will bow under our force!"

After finishing speaking, he pulled out the Dragon Fire Sword from his waist, pointed the sword at the sky in the distance, and roared.

"For Caledor."

If you want to ask who is the most excited person present, then it must belong to Randy. As a 600-year-old Asur, he has long been familiar with the situation in Ulthuan, and even thought that Caledor would eventually become a mercenary. , driven by other kingdoms, rolling feebly towards the battlefield. He wanted to change, but he was just a warrior and didn't know what to do.

But looking at Imrik on the stage, he felt the excitement he felt when he fought under the Dragon Prince. The long-lost blood surged into his heart again, and his long-quiet heart was ignited again.

He pulled out the sword from his waist, raised it high, and shouted, "For the dragon lord, for Caledor, and for Val."

The high-level dragon princes standing next to him also began to shout, then the middle, and finally the periphery of the square.

"For the dragon lord, for Caledor, for Val."

Hearing the roar of the crowd behind him, the veteran looked at the young dragon prince on the stage with his sword pointing to the sky, "Mikhail, Imrik will be the greatest dragon prince after the Conqueror King, and he will not let down the great ancestors. name."
