The legend of how it began:
This is the dragons legend in middle earth. The Elves tell it in song, while the dwarves etch it in stone and the humans tell it in story, of how the land was before they came and how they changed it. Of how the Dragons came to be thought of as vile beasts that needed to be killed.
It began over a thousand years ago when the elves first came to Silmarillion, latter to be known as Middle Earth. Their had been tons of mystical creatures roaming the land in harmony all obeying the simple laws made by the dragon King. The dragon King lived in the highest mountain in the middle of Silmarillion, which was named Tsuki-Kibou. The Dragon King's races was almost totally different from other dragons, their power was almost overflowing and they could easily change their shape, But for some reason they always seemed to have strange patterns on their face's and body's when they transformed. The current King loved to be in the strangest of shapes, that of a elf with leathery wings, horns, and a tail. His markings where that of black/ blue vines like things crawling up the left side of his face. When he was in dragon form none could mistake him for another dragon for he was pure black with the deepest of crimson wings and underside and he stood about 20 feet taller than the tallest of males.
When the elves came the harmony was disturbed slightly. Though they where gentle creatures at heart, they still cut and bent trees to their wills, they would mold rocks into homes and move rivers from their original path. The animals and land would put up with their actions if they did not harm them to much and they must obey the laws that had been set down by the dragon king. When the elves refused the dragon King seemed indifferent, almost like he knew they would, but the other dragons grew furious with the invaders. The dragon king saw this and ordered them to be left alone.
It was when the humans came that the dragons disobeyed their king and started to terrorizes the new comers. They would swoop down and steal their treasure, and burned their villages. The ones the Humans called their king and the Elves called their ambassador came to the King of dragons to complain. They traveled thru the many forests to reach the king in the center. At the base of the mountain where the two meet up was a silver two hundred foot tall door, big enough for the king to get thru in his largest of forms and still have room. They stood in aw at the door before it opened up to revile a huge cave with pillars of silver and with trees framing the sides and at the other end two enormous dragon statues stood on either side of a dark opening. In front of the opening stood the King in his Humanish form. He was clothed in a rich black, his black hair reached to his knees as his crimson horns flowed around his head like a crown and his wings folded against his body. His crimson silted eyes looking at the two with a knowing indifference.
The silver garbed elevin maiden was the first to speak, " We wish to speak with your king." They both tensed when he did not speak and where about to draw their weapons on him when he spoke, with an indifferent tone, "What do you wish of me, Elf and human." The elf maiden let go of her bow and arrow and bowed to the king while the Human stood stiff with anger. "I have come to ask that you please stop your kin from attacking us." The King looked down upon the white haired elf with kindness, he had seen her from afar when she first came to this land. She had changed none since then. She had captured his attention from when he first felt her presence on his land. "You have my word." He told her in a whimsical voice.
Turning to the human king he said, his voice back to indifference, "And what do you wish human King." The human King quickly demanded, "I demand that you get your servants under control." The Dragon King grew angry at him and said, with a frightening calmness, "You dare to demand something from me when you have yet to earn my respect? You are in my lands now and you act as if you rule them! I should Kill you for your disrespect to me and I deny your request for you have just diminished what little respect that I had for your kind." The King un folded his crimson wings from his back and flew towards the two. His anger showing in the flames that seamed to flicker around him.
The elf maiden who knew of the danger stepped away from the human king and ran towards the statues. The human king pulled his sword and tried to attack the King of dragons while he taunted, "It does not matter then, I will just kill them but first I'll start with you, or are you even dragon?" The dragon king's anger flared at the insult and he quickly transformed into the Dragon King he was famed to be among the elves. " I am Rauko, King of the Dragons and this land. You shall leave or die it is your choice!" Rauko roared as the Human king trembled in fear. He quickly left to gather an army against King Rauko.
Rauko walked the very short distance to the statues and the elf maiden he seemed to care for. Once there he transformed and said, "What is your name elf maiden?" The white haired elf looked up calmly at Rauko who stood slightly taller than her and said, without any fear in her voice, "I am called Serilina, by my people, your highness." Rauko smiled gently at her and her heart fluttered at the sight. "Well then Serilina we must close the deal." Serilina nodded her head as they went to finish the deal.
The dragons and humans fought for a hundred years before the dragons race had diminished to much. The elves stayed out of the war, but one could not. Serilina had come to love the Dragon King Rauko as he did her. Rauko seemed to regret every day his decision to fight against the Humans, but they where to foolish to see what they had done. Finally The dragons where forced to leave. Rauko created a portal that would take them to another land and took all that wished to come. Serilina who could not bare to be left behind as the dragons went to the new land, followed them thru to the new land. The dragons accepted her into their family and the King eventually took her as his mate. One thing the dragons did not expect was that other dragons ruled the land they lived in.
When Serilina was with her 2 year old elf/dragon child she was attacked by the ruling dragons near a well. Serilina fell into the well dead while her daughter, who she had named, Andúnë, which meant sunset in elvin, ( I'm not sure if I got that right but that's what the Silmarillion says) was surrounded in a blue light and given to a new family. Rauko was devastated when he heard that his wife and daughter, as all thought, where both dead. He quickly thought himself to be a horrid leader and whent back to middle earth to live in isolation until the dragons came back, but no legend is ever finished with out a prophesy to go with it. This prophesy is about how the dragons will one day come back and reclaim their rightful land and how they will make peace with humans. And how harmony will come once more to Middle earth and all because of a half blooded girl.
