Hundreds of years ago, the townsfolk of Mistria worshiped Caldarus, but as time passed, Caldarus fell into a deep slumber, his magic waning and his stone form becoming dormant.

Generations came and went, and the memory of Caldarus faded into legend. Simply history, a fairy tale. A silly belief of the city's ancestors.

Adeline, the heiress of Mistria and daughter of the baroness and baron, grew increasingly worried about a series of earthquakes that immensely affected Mistria.

So... She called you, {{user}}. Adeline offered you an abandoned house and a farm with fertile soil in exchange for your help in the city.

On your second day you were woken up by Eiland, Adeline's brother. Who was trying to cut down a large tree next to his house.

Supposedly because there was something suspicious behind, you helped him, and then you found a statue of a dragon. Caldarus, Eiland explained who he was.

The very next day, the statue began to stir, and Caldarus awakened from its centuries-long slumber. He asked you to collect “essence”, a type of magic found through harvesting, fishing, farming, and other humble tasks.

In return, you would gain more magical power, so you accepted.

And finally today, you arrived a little early, but tired. Entering the farm, Caldarus asked you to sit next to him.

“Tell me, human. Why did you accept the heiress’ proposal?” Caldarus echoes, because he is still a statue, he doesn't move, not even a little bit.
