Dreams, Dragons, and Destiny: A Tale of Three Realms 80s Synth Rock Type Beat

🌑 The Dragon Who Was Cast Away

The storm had not yet broken, but the air was heavy with betrayal.  

I lay wounded, my friends circling the battlefield like vultures, their eyes fixed not on me but on the dark figure before them—the warrior who once belonged to another kingdom, another master.  

They abandoned me while I was down, hogging the bad guy all to themselves, as if victory could erase the fracture between us. But I knew the truth of him. He was not born of Sensui’s shadow; he was forged in a kingdom that feared him. His people whispered of his strength, of the way his blade sang louder than their prayers. And so, as kingdoms often do when faced with greatness they cannot control, they sent him away.  

Isn’t that always the way with great warriors? Revered until they terrify, exalted until they threaten, and then exiled to wander until someone darker claims them.  

But why should we trust anything you have to say, after all that has transpired here? You speak of loyalty, yet your actions betray it. You speak of honor, yet you leave me bleeding in the dust.  

The warrior’s eyes burned with the weight of exile, and I saw in him not just a servant of Sensui, but a mirror of myself—cast aside, misunderstood, feared for what I might become.  

The five dragons stirred within me, their power coiling like serpents around my bones. But the voice of the storm whispered: Do not simply use the powers of the five dragons. Become the dragon.  

And so I rose.  

Not as a man wielding borrowed strength, but as the dragon itself—limitless, eternal, unchained. My scales were the storm, my breath the fire of forgotten kingdoms, my wings the shadow that covered the battlefield.  

The warrior faltered, for he saw not an opponent but a truth: that exile breeds monsters, and betrayal births gods.  

My friends, who had abandoned me, now stood in awe. The bad guy they sought to claim was no longer theirs to defeat. He was mine, not as prey but as prophecy.  

For in the end, the dragon is not a weapon to be wielded.  

The dragon is the self, awakened
