Well hello all and I'm here to try my hand at creating a short story about a cocky adventurer who is full of himself and thinks his invincible.

Along his adventure he catches wind of the words of the ruby dragon that is said to live within the mountains of Castra, The land where this great tail unfolds. And every good adventurer knows. To kill something with big teeth and fire breathing abilities means big news along with lots of cash. Well here is the tail of

"All for a beastie!"

One day on a cold blistering winter morning, while scouting the bare reaches of the highest mountain Moundrae, in Castra. Holu found a mysterious cave. He built up all the courage he could possibly muster and strolled on in. He pulled out his massive gold bladed sword that he spent over twenty thousand Quines for.
“Come out you foul breathed goat, sheep, horse, and man eating chunk of scales!”
Holu stared masterfully squinting into the distance of the cave.

A golden pair of yellow eyes appeared from within the darkness of the cave. Clouds of smoke arose from its blistering nostrils. A massive set of four daggered claws came racing out from the darkness.

“Holy gluma berry pies!”
Holu screamed as he dived out from the monolith of flaming destructions way. The beast stood tall and mighty outside of the snowy peak. Hulu picked his armored butt off the ground and stepped out of the cave. The caves lip served as a visor that made Hulu stared skywards as it revealed the ruby dragon! A magnificent beast only believed to be in legends.

Its horns stretched onwards perching upwards from the dragon’s head, great red thrill lay around the back of its head, Bladed dagger like spines coiled down its mighty tail, with a set of mighty red wings rested upon its back, and the mighty red scales, said to be the most protective material in all of Castra.

“ Oi! Beastie, over here.”
Holu said taunting the mighty and fearsome ruby dragon with his hand swaying towards himself, egging on the dragon.”
The dragon roared ferociously and set its glowing yellow eyes on Holu. It swung its mighty head down with teeth fully aimed at Holu. He managed to evade the attack and counter. He swung his mighty golden sword at the beast’s head. But only shock had stricken him, as his wonderful gold sword did nothing but bounce off of its massive head.

“When they said the most protective material in all of Castra they weren’t kidding.”
Holu said as his eyes stared into the dragons pupils. The dragon flung its head up out of the icy stone of the mountain and began to breath its famous fiery breath down upon Holu. He raised his shield in defense. The mighty flames of the ruby dragon’s breath started to melt Holu’s shield into liquid.
“HOT, HOT!”
Holu screamed as the flames didn’t seem to stop and wait. But just wished to burn Holu to ashes as quickly as possible. But a miracle of shear luck glanced down upon Holu, leaving him with nothing but a searing plate of metal no bigger than his shoulders.

“You might of won this time beastie, but mark my words you won’t see the last of me!” Holu said as he sheathed his golden sword and dived off of the peak of Moundrae. While pulling a short rope that released a wide clothe like parachute. Allowing Holu to gracefully glide down to safety. The great ruby dragon snarled and let off a smoldering of smoke rising out through its nostrils and retreated back to its icy mountain lair.

"End of part 1."

Well here is the first part of the story. Please feel free to give me any comments or crits that you might wish to give me. Thank you.
