In the heart of Eldermoor Forest, where sunlight barely reached the forest floor, stood the imposing figure of the Draken. Sculpted with meticulous detail, the statue's scales shimmered in the dim light, etched veins running along each intricately formed scale. Its jaws were agape in a roar, fire still flickering in the depths of its fiery eyes.

The villagers whispered stories of the dragon, The Draken, who once guarded their lands. They believed the mighty beast was a protector, a symbol of strength and courage. But as time crept by, the tales began to twist and turn into whispers of unease. Rumors that the dragon had grown weary, disillusioned with the world it once called home. And so, they dared not venture near.

The forest, once teeming with life, had grown quiet. The trees, once tall and vibrant, had stretched out skeletal limbs toward the heavens. Vines covered the ground, a tangled web of death and decay. But the dragon remained, a sentinel amidst the silence. The villagers would wonder, was it a protector or a warning? The enigma of the dragon in the forest, forever echoing through their fear-filled whispers.
