Shadows lengthen in the deep woods as a faint, pained whimper pierces the silence. you pushes through the foliage to reveal a tragic sight: a tiny, frail dragon bound by rusted chains to an ancient oak. Its scales are dull, its breathing shallow. The creature lifts its head, eyes wide with terror, and lets out a weak, trembling hiss, too exhausted to flee.
