He opened his eyes, revealing golden orbs shining like stars at night.

And as the morning sun rose slowly over the northern mountains, the black students shrank into lumps, and stood like knives, to light up.

It was time.

He unveiled his large, blue body from under the Mother Tree tree in the middle of the forest, and showed off his huge wings - banners proud of his heritage. I was born to Tiamat and Leviathan, said the wings that scared me. All the creatures of the forest kept silent or retreated and heeded the warning, for they knew that it was the greatest hunter in the world.

It curled up like a snake and crawled under a tree, spread its wings, and climbed the sails. Its scales were as bright as treasures in the sunlight. With spectacular waves, he followed his quarry.

The beating of his wings was heard above the trees beneath him.

And all the living creatures trembled as he walked in the sky, a dark fog.

He then sniffed the scent and walked along, knowing that the Elfling(mischievous child) would not remain hidden in one place for long.

He struck the city - an emerald meteor - and the ground shook as it touched the ground. He roared his challenge to anyone who would oppose him. He got up, turned his cave into the sky, and let out a stream of orange flames into the morning air.

No one in the area stood up and faced the challenge, except for one, the little boy who was making a noise. The child turned to face him peacefully and roared with the enthusiasm of the boy in the big green beast. The child's mother crawled out of her house afraid to collect her foolish offspring.

Tiamat and Leviathan's daughter bared her teeth and narrowed her ancient eyes.

And the locals are filling the air with their best complaints.

But the smell was gone, the Elfling was gone, so it exploded on the ground and went into the sky again.

It fluttered its wings, made a croaking noise, and dropped dead. He flew fast and very quickly to the great stone city, descending on the royal castle. His explosion erupted like thunder in a growing human kingdom.

The men, women, and children below were scattered like rabbits in front of a lion. They had never seen him like this before, and though fear loomed over them like rain, a few paused to pay homage to the miracle they saw. And the horn sounded loudly above the shouting.

Soldiers came out wearing light mail, each carrying a sword.

And the chief of the guards shouted over the destruction, "We must protect our Lord!"

But he wasn't there for them, and the Elfling was gone, so he pressed on the roof of the plane and went hunting again.

There, the fragrant aroma of lilies and berries can be felt by one person throughout the kingdom. He flew faster than the wind blowing toward the east, toward the mountains, near his quarry. When he reached the cave entrance, he saw that his search was over.

He has entered a dark cave and his disciples are surrounded by great black knives in the darkness. At the end of the cave, he saw an Elfling, with blue eyes filled with magical fire, and its shiny gold curls. The dragon blew the trumpet in victory.

Then he turned around, stumbled and clung to the ground, and barked, "I GET YOU!"

And Elfling said, "It's time, now it's my turn, so shoo!"

And then the daughter of Tiamat and Leviathan flew out of the cave, and the Elfling turned to the wall, hid his eyes in his arms, and began to count, "one two three"
