Quoted By:
Soaring on wings that eclipsed the sky above, the earth and sea wall trembling as the great ruler of the City landed on the shore. Towering over the sea wall and condemned man both, the Dragon had come to Cain. It was only a few minutes, but to the multitude that watched on trembling from a distance it seemed a long conversation indeed. What words were said and what subjects they spoke of have been lost to time or, more likely, was heard by those two and those two alone.
Priests and scholars alike have their theories, but the Book of Brothers is only clear as to how the conversation concluded. At the end, Cain laughed. Laughed, in the face of an earthly pagan god, and the god recoiled at the sound. What kind of laughter was that, to strike fear and fury into a creature that measured years in the span that a man measured days?
