Dragons of Aster Cliffs (Epilouge)

Epilogue

Days turned into weeks months and then years. Time passed and the sanctuary stayed a safe place for the dragons. Lord and Lady Aster along with the Matrons cared for the dragons for many years.

Most of the food and supplies were donations and offerings to the magick of the dragons. There was never a lack of anything. The residents of Astoria made regular trips up to the sanctuary to bring what they could to their kin.

In time the hatchery was built and there were new dragons born. It provided a warm and safe place for the new babies to hatch. There was quite a large group of dragons living together in safety and harmony.   

Lord and Lady Aster had a hatchling as well. They had a son that they named Derrick. He grew up with the hatchlings at the sanctuary. Being a carrier of the fire trait he was immediately accepted by all the dragons as kin. When he started to transform into his dragon state, they became even more attached to him.

When Lord Ulster Aster became too old to make the daily journey up to the cliffs, Lord Derrick took over the operations of the sanctuary. He had new stone and mortar buildings built to replace the older wooden ones. These buildings were larger and more easily maintained.

Even with the larger buildings the Dragon Sanctuary of Aster Cliffs grew beyond its capability. Since space was limited in the sanctuary some of the older dragons were entrusted to members of the magical community. This caused the need for a mandate to be put in place to protect the dragons that were no longer a part of the sanctuary.

The leaders of all five realms of Ogham-Duir came together and signed the Dragon Treaty of Ogham-Duir to protect the dragons. To this day, that treaty is still in effect.

The magic of the dragons lives on.
