Caladonia was born from the innermost bowels of the earth. It was here a raging battle between good and evil was bitterly fought. None were left who could remember the battle, except for one. Tias, a wizard of old, learned of the struggle from his mentor. As he feels the evil growing around him, he is reminded of something his mentor had long ago said: This battle is not over. The next one will be much greater than this one was. You, Tias, will finish what I have begun. You are to be the creator of dragons.
When Tias is summoned to King Valcon's courtyard, he finds a giant beast sitting behind the King. One look at the beast sent Tias back to when he was young and the first time he seen a dragon. Tias could see in his mind of the beast and saw what he had destroyed so effortlessly. Tias now stands at a precipice, knowing what dragons are capable of doing.
