Deep within the earth, the Dwemer elder worked bent double over his creation, his hammering muffed by the noise of cogs turning gears and steam bellowing from the inner most working of the underground city. The elder was so engrossed in his work he didn't even notice the cyborg hover over to him. "Master, I have a message to deliver to you." The elder was muttering instructions to himself paying no attention. "The war has turned to the worse, you are in danger, and you need to leave with the others."
The elder's eyes glazed over the cyborg, "The dragons will return..." He mumbled to himself more than to the cyborg. "The end is coming for the whole mer race... not just us Dwemer. What I am doing is far more important than this war... I have seen the end... This is the only hope for the future."
The cyborg stood by motionless, he had completed his task... The elder kept talking... "The one shall return... The dragon born... And this, this time lapse scroll, this elders scroll will be the end of the terror."
On the cliff of a mountain a small village stood proud against the elements. Wind blew the softly falling snow off roofs, small flakes found their way into a small toddlers clothes. Serena didn't mind the small cold pricks of the snow flakes; she never truly felt the cold.
She looked in wonder at all the activity bustling around her; she had been placed on the ground as her mother ran away in panic. Screams echoed around the village as a shadow circled the skies. "Run!" Serena heard "Dragon!" Snow melted into rain as burst of fire spread across the terrain. Serena looked around trying to figure out why everyone was screaming, she looked up into the sky at the animal with beautiful wings, it was getting closer and closer, Serena saw two other figures flying with the dragons, it was just a mommy dragon with her babies. Serena spread out her arms and chuckled at the dragon, she wanted to play up in the sky too.
Fire spread from wooden house to wooden house as all the occupants tried in vain to get away. Flames licked at Serena's skin burning away her clothes, she clapped her hands as she marvelled in her naked state in the snow, something she was never allowed to do.
The dragon landed in front of Serena, two baby dragons followed in pursuit eating their cooked meals as they explored the village. "Now, now." Said the Dragon, her beautiful scales shone red from the fire. "What do we have here?" The dragon's babies came closer. "Can I eat it mom?" One of the baby dragons said, the mother dragon tilted its head thinking. "Can I eat it?" Said the other. After a while the mother said "No, this one is not for eating." The baby dragons seemed disappointed but accepted and obeyed their mother. A warm clawed foot wrapped around Serena as she was hoisted up into the air. Exhilaration filled the little toddler as she flew off with the dragons to their cave.
