Dragons of All Elements

The shrines that the Empress built around Ebonscale Reach each correspond to a different element important in Wuxing philosophy. Our ancestors claim that the Old World was shaped by dragons. Long serpents lay down to form the rivers, while mountains were made by great leviathans finding their rest. Even the hardened metal ore beneath the earth was once dragonscales, and the reaching treetops of forests once formed their their long beards and manes. Their gift of fire is the most obvious elemental connection of all. Dragons are all around us, if one only knows where to look. Perhaps our Empress Zhou has the ability to awaken these preternatural creatures. But will she wield the power of dragons, or will the power wield her? -ZL
