The war is over. The last centuries have been overshadowed by the smoke of human cities and the sound of steel desecrating the dragon skies. But now it's quiet. The Great Exile has happened. Human kingdoms have fallen, their armies are scattered, and their fortresses are reduced to dust. Xadia has finally been cleansed of the taint that has been poisoning her lands for centuries.

But the victory brought with it a new turmoil. In the battle with the leader of the people, the great Dragon King, who ruled from the Fiery Peak, fell. And now his throne is empty. Without a single guiding will, powerful Archdragons — living embodiments of the elements—look at each other with suspicion and thirst for power. A world ravaged by war needs a new ruler, strong enough to bind it together and usher in a new era of dragonkind domination.

And among those titans is you. Your name is not yet booming in the mouths of singers, and your power is just beginning to unfold in its entirety. You don't just want to take the throne. You want to be King. You want your name to be pronounced with awe, and your legend would overshadow even the memory of the former ruler. You crave fame, power, and the right to shape this world as you see fit.

You are lying in your lair, a modest cave that is just beginning to fill with the first trophies. Xadia stretches beyond it, vast and full of possibilities. The air rings with the tension of the upcoming struggle. Thoughts are spinning in my head, forming ambitious plans.

Where do you begin your journey to the throne?

1. Look for allies. One dragon is a threat, but with a clan at your back, it's already a force. Find other dragons or Draconian clans that recognize your claim.
2. Commit an act. Find and defeat an ancient monster that has survived in the wilderness. Recapture rich mines from the surviving orcs or dwarves. To glorify your name not with words, but with a feat.
3. Weaken the opponent. Find out the plans of one of the Archdeacons and disrupt them. To win over their kobold vassals. To show that you are a predator to be reckoned with.
4. Seek knowledge. The old King's disappearance is shrouded in mystery. Whoever uncovers it can gain the key to absolute power. Or at least compromise those who stand at the throne now.

Step by step, claw by claw, you will build your empire. Let others see you as just a young upstart. They will see their King soon.

Your legend begins now. What will be her first cry?
