Once There Were Heroes: A Time of Dragons Book 1 In the realm of Verda, there was once a time of heroes. Brave men and women who showed their quality to be above the rest, earning the hearts of dragons and defending the weak and oppressed across all of Erador. These heroes rose up on young battlefields, birthing dragons from their eggs, and galvanizing generation after generation. However, with the passing of time, the dragons began to fade, and the heroes disappeared. In their absence, only soldiers remained, fighting in a war that seemed to never end. This is the story of the last noble warriors in the realm, the Dragon Riders, and their struggle to keep back the darkness that threatens to consume all of Erador. The Plot The story begins with the introduction of the last remaining Dragon Rider, Arin, who has been waiting for a worthy warrior to emerge and join him in his fight against the dark forces that threaten the land. As the years pass, Arin becomes increasingly desperate, as he sees the light of hope fading away with each passing day.
