Ghetto Dragons





The town of Little Delaney was so cut-off from the world

They had hardly no money for anything

And the town couldn’t afford to pay Maistero (the man over the Town Network) to keep hot water running


The poor inhabitants came in different ethnicities, but it was predominantly African American and Caucasian

And there were Elven folk, Dwarfs and Faeries that came from Lindendale

And, of course, Dragons, the builders of Lindendale city and all it’s sub divided towns

These were your average dragons: wings, scales, everything a dragon has

There were also human dragons, whom were shifters and could freely shift between the forms

Truth be told, there’s nothing average about the Dragons, they came from Space and have dwelled on Earth since the Pre Cambrian times. They are a very advance race and Lindendale shows just how advance they’ve become.


The citizens of Little Delaney worshiped the dragons that populated the town

Especially the York’nai (hymnody for Prosper) Clan

They built statues of the clan leader, Al’len, and his brother Rowan

After a few years of hardly no funding from the dragon governor of Lindendale (and enslavement by Crotonian aliens) the mannerism disappeared from both humans and dragons


On Tuesadays, the trader trucks would come by to deliver food for the humans and dragons

Trader Miley, a modern-day teenage Mage from the moon Panthor, would talk with the dragon gatekeeper, Rowan. She knew he was from the York’nai clan but she wasn’t quick to worship him like everyone else. She treated him as her friend.


“So, how are things looking up?” asked Miley.

Rowan sighed, “If you think sleeping on rags and dirty mattresses is looking up, then yeah, we’re looking up to the high heavens.”

Miley’s expression turned a bit grim, she had to ask, “No hot water yet?”
