The Aquarius Dragon

In this early morning in another vilage Sandroughe in another location of the valley a wondrous spectacle was seen after a terrible thunderstorm, A very large aqua green dragon also rose out of the wild waters of the River Roufin at the Roufin bridge. The dragon had probably been awakened from it's deep sleep at the bottom of the river by a violent thunderstorm that washed down from Mount Rowenbach, which flowed thunderously into the Roufin beneath the village grain mill. 
The startled dragon shot for the surface, upon emerging into the surface air it was temporarily blinded by a flash of lighting and landed in a sprawl on the river bank. Lifting it's huge head up towards the sky it screamed in frustration with such ferocity that it shook the leaves on the near by trees. Lifting it's huge luminous wings once again took to the air flying in the opposite direction from the storm, the air pressure from it's huge ponderous wings blowing the leaves and twigs from the trees below.

The beast flew towards a lone peak in the distance and roosted upon it's summit to rest until dawn which would soon arrive. The early dawn light lit up a the sky to reveal a beautiful valley below, a patchwork many colors. In the distance the dragon could see a column of smoke rising up above a grove of trees. An irresistible aroma came to the
  dragons nostrils that it could not resist and realized that after the long slumber it had taken at the bottom of the river it had grown hungry.

The dragon once again took to the air and flew towards the column of smoke like a moth drawn to a lamp. In this early morning in another vilage Sandroughe in another location of the valley a wondrous spectacle was seen after a terrible thunderstorm, A very large aqua green dragon also rose out of the wild waters of the River Roufin at the Roufin bridge. The dragon had probably been awakened from it's deep sleep at the bottom of the river by a violent thunderstorm that washed down from Mount Rowenbach, which flowed thunderously into the Roufin beneath the village grain mill. 

In the long distant past dragons lived along side man in harmony and thry were the protectors and helpers and guides for man. But unfortunately something happened and man turned against it's friend and protector the dragons and the dragons withdrew into the high peaks of mountains and thick wilderness areas. But man did not leave them in peace for long before they came hunting for them so the dragons retreated even far the into remote places on our planet. 

But man continued hunting and slaughtering them an finally they retreated to another place, another world where men would not be able to reach them. 

Some chose to stay with the hopes that somehow they could reconcile their bond with mankind but mankind continued to hunt them to near extinction, today only a very few of them remain, only seen by those who still have an open mind and are pure of heart can see to them, especially young children. In this tiny community it was the very young who were the first to see the Aquarius dragon coming in the distance. The children from everywhere in the village came running out to see the magnificent dragon.

The dragon circled the village from high above just out of arrow and lance range looking for the source of the aroma it had smelled. A large cauldron on a tripod stood over a fire in front of one of the dwellings, folding it's wings it dove down towards the cauldron . more children ran out of the dwelling accompanied by two men with lances, the dragon continued its dive looming bigger and bigger as it got closer until finally it folded it's wings and landed on the dirt in a loud of dust as continued moving forward towards the cauldron  The dragon could hear shout as and screaming all around but never lost a stride as it continued towards the source of the irresistible aroma.     

Not one lance was thrown nor any arrows shot, it had happened to quickly and now there were children everywhere who had come out to sea this amazing beast. Some children were practically dragged away by frantic adults but there were to many of them. One little red haired boy approached the dragon with no apparent fear. The beast knocked over the cauldron and just proceeded to feast it'self oblivious to the hub bub around it. The red haired boy continued moving towards the dragon. 

The boy reached the dragon and just stood their in amazed curiosity at the beast only just a few steps away, the dragon finished with it's meal it turned to look at the boy who just stood there fearlessly  The dragon nudged the little boy with it's snout and the boy stumbled back a few paces but persistently just walked back to stand in front of the dragon smiling he extended his hand towards the beast. Giving up the beast lowered it's long sinewy neck and chin to lay flat on the ground. The boy again walked right up to the dragon and petted it on the snout then sat next to it with his right arm round his neck. The boy smiled as he thought, "my forever friend."❤
