Downfall of Dragons

For years we had thought that the elders and the four Chaos Staffs had killed off the dragons. I guess that we were wrong. A few eggs must have survived until the elders hid the staffs. The Elders had thought that they destroyed all the eggs, so they took the staffs to be housed in hidden temples.

My grandfather would not stop telling me the legend. It was the same thing every time that I went over to his house, "It was a night eon ago, when the four chaos staffs, life, light, darkness, and death, were used in unison to banish the dragons to the chaos realm." He would say " The elders were smart in hiding the staffs in case the dragons ever returned to the face of the earth. I just hope with the elders gone that the descendants of the elders will be able to find the staffs, especially the staff of darkness. They say when the elder that held it got out of the temple that he destroyed the entrance to the temple. And there was another thing that I heard. It was that the elder had made a secret entrance to the resting camber, were the staff was stored."

I knew that there was a strange truth to that legend. So when I started to hear that dragons were being sighted at MT. Ealios. So I thought I check it out. When I passed the closest town to the mountain every thing started to look baron. The only thing that I saw that above ground level was the Dead Forest and MT. Ealios. By the time I reached the Dead Forest I was vary thirsty. And to my surprise I found a clear blue lake with green trees growing around it (unlike the rest of the forest). But there was something strange about it. I ignored the feeling, filled my canteen and moved on. But before I could leave the forest I came across a dragon. It obviously wasn't happy with me being there. The dragon started to chase me in rage. I started running towards the lake. And when I hit those green trees, the dragon quickly and fled as if it was terrified of the lake. The felling grew that there was something here that I had to find. So I started looking. I quickly found a pond with a headstone with carvings that I could not read but could understand, "A single ripple can open a door, and another may close it". After that I had the feeling that I needed to touch the pond, and when I did I saw a dark and mysterious room. And when I touched it again it turned back into a clear blue pound. I touch it again and again I saw the room. But this time I went to the lake. The room appeared there too. I jumped in and drowned.
