Story:
As told by Pharrgon the Dragon:
The dragon hummed in the back of his throat before speaking. “Once in a lifetime, a child will be born of men that has special gifts bestowed on them by Dayspring. Dragons call them Dayspeakers, but humans call them Oracles or Masters. These men see the future and have the ability to interpret things that puzzle most, such as dreams, riddles, and prophecies. They often speak specific words from Dayspring and are sometimes endowed with some of Dayspring’s power. More often than not, they are given long lasting life on the earth.”
"Walneff is a Dayspeaker. His family lived in a valley with a company of other people who were forced to live there by their king. Even as a young boy the people shunned Walneff because of his unnatural gifts and rejected him because of his great wisdom and insight into matters of the heart.”
“A strange disease went rampant through the community, and all those in the community, except Walneff and his younger brother, died. The two boys were both quite young when this happened and had to find their own way across the wilderness to return to a thriving society where they were not warmly welcomed back.
“When Walneff was a young man, he joined union with a girl he cared for, making him happy for a time, but she died not long afterward, breaking his heart. Many years later, his brother became ill and died, leaving Walneff alone in a cold world.” Pharrgon paused and made a thrumming noise in his throat. “Ah, it is hard to know what happened after that. Walneff went into deep mourning and disappeared from the known world for a time. He later returned full of wisdom and knowledge and became a Master of renown as well as a friend of dragons. He played a major role in finding refuge for the declining dragons, choosing a forest for their haven and a valley for their hunting grounds. It is now known as the Dragon Plains, but Walneff knew it as the valley of old memories and torment from his younger days.”
“Before the Wovlen people were exiled from their kingdom, Walneff’s family lived and died in that valley. They died because of a poisonous plant that once grew there. Walneff entreated the dragons to burn the valley until even the dirt was smoldering. Only then were the poisonous plants wiped out. The fumes and smoke that rose into the sky that day were toxic. Toxic enough to kill even dragons.” Pharrgon's great golden eyes filled with soft nostalgia. “I was a young dragon then, living in the White Mountains. The ash and smoke from the event reached all the way to the mountains, killing many things or making them immune to the toxin, as it did to me.”
