Ok, guys, here's Chapter 1 of The Slayer of Dragons and Reapers. It contains the means the group arrived on Nirn, and their arrival there.

I will be using a similar chapter naming scheme to RWBY: The Reapers, specifically, the whole "Priority: (Location)" for chapters involving main quests (and the stuff leading up to the group's arrival in Nirn). Additional chapters will be labeled as such:

"Warwick: (Name)" - Chapters involving the Warwicks (and Thrella)

"Apex: (Name)" - Chapters involving Apex (and Ameela)

"Vesk: (Name)" - Chapters involving Vesk

"(Faction): (Name)" - Chapters involving various faction quests

"(DLC): (Name)" - Chapters involving DLC Quests

So, now it's time to start The Slayer of Dragons and Reapers.

Priority: Damatra

It has been 5 weeks since the Reapers were defeated. Commander Jane Shepard was able to reach and activate the Crucible, which eliminated the Reapers. Against the odds, the galaxy's races won. Now, the galaxy must rebuild. The Krogan, now free of the Genophage, work to regain their lost glory, rebuilding both their homeworld and their population. The Rachni, given a new chance at life, return to their new homeworld, to grow and regain their lost glory, and maybe, someday, join galactic civilization. The Geth and Quarians, after 300 years of conflict, finally are at peace, and are working together to rebuild Rannoch. The Awakened Collectors, freed by the Leviathan, spread out, to find the Prothean artifacts across the galaxy, hoping to discover their lost past, and maybe rejoin galactic civilization, led by the Prothean Javik, who aided the Asari Liara T'Soni in writing her book.

The galaxy was finally at peace, allowing 4 individuals to finally live in peace.

N7 Destroyer Brayden Warwick, a veteran of the war, managed to procure a Kowloon-class freighter, the Winona, which they modified to be a little harder to attack, using civilian-grade weapons and a more powerful drive core.

He was on the bridge of the ship, when a figure came behind him. He looked and saw it was his sister, Sierra. Almost a year before the war, she was kidnapped by Batarian Pirates, but was rescued by Brayden and the fleet he was stationed with, months later. He'd never forgiven the slavers for transforming his sister from the innocent, kind, and cheerful girl she was into the cold and perpetually-depressed girl she is now. "Are you doing alright, C?" Brayden asked his sister.

Sierra sighed. "Yeah, yeah, I'm fine, Bray..." she said, in her depressed tone.

"Why don't I believe you one bit?" Brayden asked his sister. Sierra merely huffed and walked off the bridge. He then looked over to the pilot, a Batarian the group hired on Omega. Brayden grimaced: he didn't care much for Batarians, even after they'd helped humanity liberate Earth from the Reapers. Then again, they DID enslave his sister, and completely transformed her, indicating they probably did horrible things to her. If he had to be totally honest with himself, he didn't completely forgive them for that. Brayden asked, "So...how long until we arrive at the Relay?"

"Maybe an hour or so-hey, your sister doing alright?"

Brayden frowned. "Why do you ask?"

"Just worried, is all...sure she'll be alright?" the Batarian asked.

Brayden resisted all urge to snap at the Batarian, and just said, "I hope so..."

"Speaking of which, what happened to her, anyway?"

Resisting all urge to angrily yell at the Batarian, Brayden replied, "Batarian slavers. THAT'S what happened to her..."

All 4 of the Batarian's eyes widened. "Oh..." He then turned back to his controls, thinking, 'Damned slavers...'

After the designated hour, the ship entered the system, the closest planet a devastated world, mostly desert. However, something caught Apex's notice: energy readings coming from a ruin in the northern hemisphere of the planet. Apex brought this to the attention of his allies. Brayden was initially uninterested, until Sierra expressed interest in it, causing him to agree to investigate, to satisfy his sister's curiosity.

The ship arrived at the planet, Damatra, and the group took a shuttle down to the site of the ruins. The ruins were unusual in appearance, definitely not Prothean, or any other ancient race they knew of. If anything, it more resembled something from Earth Fantasy, something some party of mages and warriors would find and try to enter and look for treasure in.

As the team approached the ruin, Apex stopped them. "Hold, unknown movements detected in the ruin."

"What kind of unknowns?" Vesk asked.

Apex answered, sarcastically, "The "Unknown" kind..." Vesk just glared at him, as he pulled out his hammer. The team moved into the ruin. In the first room, they found what looked like a pool of viscous, green liquid. Apex scanned it. "Don't touch the liquid: poisonous."

"What was your first clue?" Sierra sarcastically remarked.

As the group moved around the pool, the group heard a rumble. "Tell me that was your stomach..." Brayden said to Vesk.

"Uhhh...and if it wasn't?" the Krogan responded, while everyone looked at the pool...where a massive, fish-like humanoid burst out. It has tall, taller than Vesk, and had a horrifying face. "I thought you said that pool was poisonous!" the Krogan exclaimed.

"This creature must be immune to the poison. It's not a creature I am familiar with!" Apex exclaimed, as it avoided the flurry of tentacles that shot from its mouth. "This is HIGHLY close to impossible!"

"Whatever! Just keep hitting it!" Brayden called, unloading his Phaeston Assault Rifle into it. The creature then charged him, swiping a massive, webbed hand at him. Brayden barely avoided. "DAMMIT!"

Seeing her brother come that close to getting his head lobbed off, however, set Sierra off. She activated Tech Armor, and charged the creature, fist shrouded with Biotics. The fist connected, and the impact area actually showed signs of damage. "HAH! This thing can't take Biotics!"

Grinning under his helmet, Vesk took his hammer, and charged, charging the weapon with Biotics. The weapon had a more noticeable effect, smashing the creature's torso, and knocking back into the poison, it not coming back out. "Must've hit something BIG down there!" the Krogan proudly declared.

"Well...here's to hoping we don't encounter anymore of those things..." Brayden said, as the quartet went further into the ruins.

As the group went further, they discovered another creature hovering across the ground. It was very hideous, covered in tentacles and...moss? Either way, it didn't see to notice them. In fact...it was reading a book. "What is that thing?"

The creature then, abruptly, looked at them, and then fired a fireball at them. "NOT FRIENDLY!" Brayden exclaimed, as the group dodged the attack, barely leaving the blast radius as the fireball exploded.

Vesk charged forward, hammer ready, but the creature then began draining the Krogan's energy. It barely got to the creature, slamming the Biotically-charged hammer into the creature and slamming it into the wall. The creature collapsed into a pile of moss, as the Krogan fell to its knees. "What...the hell...was that?!"

"I do not know. It should have not been able to remotely drain your vitality like it did. It does not make sense," Apex said.

"This ruin keeps getting weirder and weirder..." Brayden said, and the group continued on.

After another hour of facing more of the tentacle-faced freaks, the group finally found themselves in a large antechamber. In the center of the room was a platform, surrounded by a moat of green poison, and on the platform, was...

"A book? What the hell is a book doing here?" Vesk asked.

Apex approached it, and said, "I...I am uncertain how this is possible, but this book is a source of the energy we detected."

"Let me see," Sierra said, her curiosity getting the better of her. She looked at the book: it was large, covered in wrinkled black leather, and had a symbol on it, consisting of a mess of tentacles. "Wow..."

"I'm not so sure we should be touching that..." Vesk said.

Brayden looked at his sister, who was staring at the book, a look stating she was definitely interested in it on her face. After a moment, Brayden said, "...Let's bring it back anyways...surely some scientist might be interested in how this book emits energy." Sierra then picked up the book. Before she could open it, though, Brayden said, "Let's wait until we're back at the Winona before we try reading it, alright?"

"Alright," Sierra said, understandingly, before putting the book in the pack she had.

The trip back to the ship was uneventful: in the room with the book, the group had found a passageway that led back into the room with the pool...with the fish man now floating, face-up, in the pool. Vesk seemed pleased with himself: he'd smacked the thing hard enough to where it took a long time to float back up to the surface. The team was able to return to their shuttle and make it back to the ship.

Aboard the ship, everyone, except for Apex, who was in his module of the ship, was gathered in the makeshift CIC, and waiting to see what was in the book. The person who was going to open the book, Sierra, was there as well. "Ok, let's see what's in this thing." Finally, she opened the book, and was amazed by what it possessed. "What the hell...I'll say, this is unusual..." Inside the book were unusual patterns and symbols, some of these symbols in circles. But that wasn't the weird part: they were moving.

Suddenly, the book began to glow. Sierra dropped it as withering, green tentacles shot out of the book. It seemed like that, if Sierra was still holding the book, they'd have grabbed her. Instead...they spread across the ship. "What the hell?!" Brayden shouted, pulling out his rifle and firing at the tentacles, which had no effect. The tentacles continued to cover the ship, until even the hull was covered with a sickly green-colored web of tentacles. Soon. the tentacles glowed brightly, and the energy soon shot in front of the ship, the tentacles disappearing as well...the energy turning into a wormhole that sucked the ship into it.

"Warning: Gravity well detected. Warning: Gravity well detected. Warning: Gravity we-"

"SHUT UP!"

The Winona suddenly found itself in the gravity well of a garden planet. The wormhole the book had opened shot the ship to a far-off, unknown location. How, the ship was caught in the planet's gravity well, unable to escape, and the Batarian pilot was doing his best to make sure that the descent leaves as few wounded as possible. However, the ship wasn't meant to handle this stress, and portions of it began to tear off. Soon, the Warwicks came to the bridge, the girl, understandably, waiting at the door. "What the hell is going on?!" Brayden asked.

"I don't have a damn clue!" the pilot answered, "One minute, we were in deep space, next, we were sucked into a wormhole of some kind, now, we're pulled into a planet's gravity well, and now, I'm tying to pilot us towards an unpopulated region in the north of the world's largest landmass!" Then, a rumble and an alarm went off. "SHIT! We just lost Apex's module: it's going to land in the southern portion of that region."

"There's nothing more we can do! Get to the aft section of the ship!" Brayden called, grabbing his sister's arm, and taking her and himself towards the aft of the ship.

As they rushed towards the aft, another module tore off, taking the airlock with it...the sucking caused by it pulling Vesk out as well. Fortunately, Brayden was far enough away from the breach that his power suit could hold him down, he kept his hold on his sister, as the ship crashed...and soon, the ship as a whole crashed.

Hey, that was the first chapter of this story. So...what do you guys think?

Furthermore, I have been contemplating having more OCs appear, both ME and TES (for the ME ones, debating whether to have them either find similar books to the ones the Warwicks' group found, or maybe even having been on the Warwicks' ship). Give me your thoughts on this, and, if I get enough support for them, might add them to the character roster...

The chapters will go in order of when the groups left the ship. Yes, that means we get to see what Apex does first, then Vesk, and then we get to the Warwicks. Essentially, we'll be going from when they disappeared to when they begin converging on the others' location.

In other words, the upcoming chapters will be:

Chapter 2 - Apex's chapter

Chapter 3 - Vesk's chapter

Chapter 4 - Warwick chapter

Chapter 5 - everyone regroups

...Then...we'll go from there...
