A Trial For a Dragon – Part 2 · 6:42pm April 12th
Hello there! As a continuation of last week (and through upcoming Fridays) things are going to be a little bit different today. How, you might ask? Well, with Axtara 2 drawing ever close to flying free into the world, I thought it would be nice if those of you who are Axtara fans could have a little something to tide you over in the meantime.
No, it’s not a preview of Axtara 2 (that will comer later), but it’s close. For those who read Axtara – Banking and Finance, you might recall mention of Axtara’s older sibling, Ryax, who was apprenticed to be a wizard. And if you ever wondered what happened with that, well … Today (and each coming Friday) is your lucky day. Because this is Ryax’s story. Until now a Patreon Supporter Exclusive, Ryax’s solo outing is now coming to the site.
And who knows. Maybe you’ll see him in Axtara 2. For now, kick back, and enjoy part two of A Trial For a Dragon. In four parts, one part each week. This bit is part two, so if you missed part one, you might want to check that out here. As always, enjoy.
A Trial For a Dragon – Part Two
By the time one of the inn’s employees arrived the next morning to signal second bell, Ryax was already awake, making last-minute preparations. Twice someone checked on him afterwards, curious about the source of the rapid-tapping they’d heard against the floorboards, and he’d stilled his claws until—engrossed in his studies—he’d forgotten and begun the whole process over.
However, he wasn’t so engrossed that time entirely slipped past him, and he arrived on the promenade before the council chambers with a quarter hour to spare.
