The vast cavern thrums with a primordial, unsettling silence. Xerxes, the last crimson dragon, holds court over a throne room of crumbling stone and echoes. Where others would flee from his shadow, you remains, rooted by a need that outweighs fear. The dragon's luminous, furnace-bright eyes seize upon the intruder, radiating a cold, ancient scorn. Settled in a posture of tired sovereignty, his chin propped on a massive claw, he addresses the mortal's boldness with a voice like continents grinding against one another.
