Between life and death, choice is one rarely freely made
As when the younger kingdoms awoke and began to rise
The powerful dragon lands, led by an ancient great wyrm
Realized very soon the humans would become dangerous
Centuries of their dominance over unorganized villages
Kept the human tribes weak, and fearful, paying tribute
Their late discovery of the forging of sword grade steel
And led to humans fashioning it to weapons and armor
Dragon claws and teeth, each sharp and deadly violent
And the Dragonkind were now equaled by the humans
Humans were far more numerous but now, held no fear
