Dragons ruled before, they can do it again.

Chapter 1: Tale

Ninjago was a planet far out in a galaxy all its own. Species of all kinds graced its habitable surface, living in its oceans, mountains, cities, forests, jungles and so forth. You could go anywhere on Ninjago and find a creature to interest you, be it the Frozen Wastelands or the Volcanic Islands. Ninjago itself was beautiful. The planet was lucky to be graced with the life of so many species to enhance its beauty by billions of times. However, with the evolution of man, Ninjago became not so beautiful. Humans began to hunt the creatures on its surface, building their future as the top of the food chain. Or so humans thought. Long ago, the first dragon was born on Ninjago. The first was named the Creator, as he was a dragon of Creation. He had two sons to follow him: Wu and Garmadon. Wu was the dragon of Light, while Garmadon was the dragon of Darkness. From their scales came the next generation of elemental dragons, which spawned the next generation. Soon, hundreds of thousands of species existed within the boundaries of Ninjago, creating new hybrids every day. But, to man, these dragons were a threat. Dragons were stronger, sometimes smarter, and magically powerful compared to them. Humans were not at the top, like their destiny called. So, humans hunted them. They found that the scales of some dragons were effective in healing dreadful diseases that otherwise could not be cured, sometimes their organs or bodily parts instead were useful. Humans experimented with the species, hoping to discover their usefulness while they could gain the upper hand in the unseen war. Dragons were not happy with the humans' actions towards them and the planet of which they occupied, but were forbidden by their forefathers to make a move against the humans. Instead, dragons stuck to their own. They recreated their clans, thriving in their homelands as isolated elements for their own protection. They used magic to hide themselves from the humans, some of which forgot the ways of hunting and moved on, hoping to be forgotten entirely. Some humans, known as Maics, formed secret sanctuaries for the dragons, using magic to conceal the location, and welcomed dragons of any species within their lands. However, some humans did not forget their ancestry. They continued to hunt dragons using cruel methods that were painful and torturous. These humans became known as Huva.
