He took another sip from the half full pint in front of him on the table. His ship had docked in Port Phoenix nearby and he had walked to the valley from there. It was time. He had been waiting for the right moment to ask the brewer about a rumour he had heard in his travels.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When Phlebus finally asked the question, Old Pete was thrilled to tell the story to another passerby. It wasn\u2019t often that anyone asked him for a story anymore. It wasn\u2019t often that anyone travelled this way into the valley anymore either.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRiver\u2019s Cross was a quiet little hamlet once. Before those strange elves usin\u2019 magic showed up out of nowhere. They became the darlin\u2019s of the village. There was even dances out in the square once in a while and me ol\u2019 Uncle Clarence used to play his accordion for them. That was before. Before the residents all started disappearing like, one by one. No one really noticed till there was only me left tending the bar. I don\u2019t mind, really. But it gets kinda lonely all by meself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI gets travelers now and then. People like yourself travellin\u2019 into or out of Jade Valley sometimes stop here to catch their breath before the long hike out of the valley. There\u2019s not much to see now, but River\u2019s Cross was once a right gem of a hamlet.\u201d Old Pete took another sip from his whiskey.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeems you are interested in hearing more about my little pub. It\u2019s called the Dragon\u2019s Breath Inn \u2018cause o\u2019 what happened the night the elves left town. Well, I\u2019ll tell ya, but I warn ya now\u2026. it\u2019s not a pretty story. And it doesn\u2019t end well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He stopped to sip again from his drink then went on, \u201cIt all started about a decade ago when those elves showed up. They sauntered into town like they knew where they were going and had the money to pay for it, ya know what I mean?\u00a0 It was the stink of magic that gave em away, an\u2019 I don\u2019t hold truck with no magic. I din\u2019t pay em no mind long as they paid for their drink in gold and din\u2019t get too uppity. Soon they had some of the other residents building a sort of temple for em. Somewhere they did their whispering and magicking. It used to be over down the lane, but it ain\u2019t there now a days. Least ways I ain\u2019t seen no one around there for a while now. Not since that night they all got drinking that special ale they had been promising that they were making for everyone in the Hamlet.\u201d Old Pete tipped his glass to Phlebus again before swallowing. \u201cThey built themselves a brewery an set up doin little magic spells for folks to speed healing, or add a pox to an enemy, you know, regular stuff like that. Well then, after awhiles they were in here one night whispering. Always whispering. But that night they was purty excitable. Giddy almost, for that lot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey was discussin\u2019 the finished product they had made. An Ale. And not just any ale. Somethin\u2019 special that never been thunk up befores. Ale of Essence they bin callin\u2019 it. Ale of Essence? Now them is some fancy words for that swill. There was no reason for them to be so dang excitable about it. It didn\u2019t taste right to me at all an\u2019 I spit it right out, but them mages told me that it would give me everlastin\u2019 life if I drank some. I don\u2019t see no difference. Though I rightly am still alive so it must be workin\u2019, eh?\u201d He stopped to cackle a bit to himself over his joke before going on.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnyhoo\u2019 it was a mostly dark and stormy night. We was all huddled around the bar and tryin\u2019 to stay warm. You know the kind o night I\u2019s talkin\u2019 bout? An after a few pulls from their special cask, them elves started arguin\u2019 who was the better magic user. You can imagine that it ain\u2019t my place to get in the middle of angry drunk mages so\u2019s I just stayed back here and sorta hid behind the hutch over there. They was castin\u2019 spells and drawin\u2019 funny shapes in the air with their wands, and soon enough they got serious. That\u2019s when I got scared. Real scared. They wasn\u2019t foolin\u2019 round anymore.\u00a0 One o \u2018em decided to try to do a spell big and the others were shouting at the caster to stop cause an I quote \u201cwe didn\u2019t get it right even with the whole group of mages in the temple\u201d. It didn\u2019t convince the mage to stop, and they just kept chanting an\u2019 tossed some ol bone on the ground out front of the inn. T\u2019other one, that one that was with all them elves but was human but still a magic user ya know? The quiet one. Well, he started a different chant, and I could feel the hairs on my arms rise up and let me know there was trouble. Big trouble. The quiet one\u2019s chant put a shimmer around the pub. I ain\u2019t never seen nuthin\u2019 like it afore. Then the shrieking started. And the fires and the roaring and the fires. Them fires was sumthin\u2019 alright.\u201d He paused again lost in thought. He sipped awhile at the cup he nursed in the crook of his arm while he spoke.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI looked outta that window over there and saw the shadow of the creature fly over us. It was huge, scaly, orange and spewin\u2019 fire outta its maw every which way. Somebody tol\u2019 me it was a dragon, I ain\u2019t never seen one o those before. Don\u2019t wanna see another one either. That shimmer from the quiet mage protected the pub from the dragon\u2019s breath that night. We was the only building left standin\u2019 the next day. Them mages mostly perished tryin\u2019 to control that dragon thing in the night and lucky for them when the warriors from Jade Valley saw the dragon flyin\u2019 round the valley they came and battled it to death. I don\u2019t know what finally happened, but it got kilt some which way. You can see the bones scattered over there behind the inn in the woods still. The few mages that were still living the next day wandered off quick as a wink muttering something about everyone would know where they were now, and they needed to find some mage who had run off with their special book. It\u2019s been pretty quiet these days, but you can sometimes see the smoke and feel the shadow of that dragon flyin overhead.\u00a0 I reckin that shadow thin\u2019 is looking for them mages even still. Now iffin you want some o\u2019 that Ale of Essence you is gonna hafta go find one o\u2019 \u2018em what makes it. I ain\u2019t going alookin\u2019. More Ale?\u201d He finished with a flourish.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo you know where they went?\u201d Phlebus asked quickly, covering his pint with his hand.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNope, but I heard tell that someone called Nestor was the leader even iffin he weren\u2019t herebouts. Maybe you\u2019s can ask \u2018im. Come back on in for a visit sometime won\u2019tcha?\u201d Old Pete waved as Phlebus downed the rest of his drink and rose to leave.<\/p>\n<div class=\"clammr-player\" data-title=\"The Stone Dragon Series &#8211;
