In the land of wizardry -where the unexpected and impossible really exist- great dragons are quite misunderstood. They are misunderstood because they are different. The difference between them and normal dragons? Great dragons have the ability to turn human. Some would think this capability is a blessing, but the race of great dragons knew it to be a curse. An unbreakable curse which was held the greatest of secrets, beyond all others.
When you are a great dragon, everyone who knows of your precarious situation turns into a threat. Even your most loyal of friends will abandon you. This is the world great dragons live in, a world where you are stuck between two species and discriminated against because you are different. Because neither of your races can don't see, it's ok to be different. In the case of a great dragon, it's even better to be different. The clever wit and magic arsenal of a wizard, combined with the phenomenal power and abilities of a dragon.
Great dragons where said to be demi-gods, placed on earth to protect all its magical creatures. The same creatures, wizards, who have slain their protectors' race to extinction.
But not complete extinction. For there are still two.
Two great dragons who defeated the odds.
Two great dragons who are still misunderstood.
