Bracha, 14th of Holmswelt, P.C. 1018 - Taywin's Journal


We received word today from the battlefield.  The war is over, but what a price!

So many dead and wounded, but none will be mourned more than Huma (who the Knights are already calling "DragonBane") and Heart.  The Knights here are already calling for a monument to the lovebirds in all places Foghaven Vale in Ergoth!

While part of me understands why a dragon such as her would fight for the future of Krynn, the other part of me is just not sure why anyone would risk their lives in such a way when they had the option to just walk away and be happy. The rest would have taken up the challenge.

I mean, I would never have wanted the Dark Queen to be completely in charge of the whole world, but there are other, worse alternatives.

Now the evil dragons have been driven to the Abyss with their Queen and the Metallic dragons must leave to the Dragon Isles, or go into hiding among the folks of Krynn, never to interfer with the actions of mortals, always to live at the edges of humanity.  It's going to be most difficult for the Silver dragons.

So maybe the Lord of Ravenskeep was right to bring the key here to Palanthas, because while this city WAS attacked, several times actually, the Library still stands, as the library has always stood since the beginning of the city.

I suppose that Willow will want to go back the Anaya's village where she's from, and I'll be in charge of returning Aurik to his home.  I wonder how the boy, now almost a man, will react to whatever the war has down to the ancient keep in the mountains.

I suppose there is only one way to find out......
