The Breastplate of the Dragons

    In the town of Nordak lived a great adventurer named Bolgam. He was out looking one day for some monsters to fight when he stumbled into an old man, who was a traveler. He told Bolgam of many treasures he had heard of that were protected by guardians. Bolgam was naturally interested so he asked to know more, so the traveler gave him a mystical book he wrote that had spells in it. The man said he couldn't give it to him unless he got a price. Bolgam gladly gave him 2,000 copper pieces and left with the book. When he got home he read it intently. The next day he went to the town shop and bought a pack, shield, knife, food, and armour. That was all he could buy at the time so he left heading or a kingdom called Persellite, because, it was near the Valley of Flame, which is where the dragons live. In the book there is an ancient dragon that holds their breastplate. It is magical armour that protects against almost anything.
    He is now in Persellite Castle, and asks the king for his services in getting it. The king agrees, but he must repay him afterwards. The king gives him the password to a secret room. Bolgam goes to the room and finds three piles of bones and an incantation, which he adds to the book. He then casts it and the bones came to life as three skeletons. One of which is a fire warrior, the other has strong, super sharp claws, and the last is partially mechanical. He also got more money to buy a helmet, bracers, and leggings.
    Two days later they sent out for the valley in a boat. They got there that evening, tied their boat down, went in about 700 yards, and set up camp. The next morning they left for the dragons' lair. Then, they went inside and it was huge they tried to keep as quiet as possible so as not to wake the dragons. They got to the end of the giant hall and found a room as big as a castle. In it was the Ancient One standing as alert as ever. They went in and he spotted them and sent out a sound of danger, awakening all of the dragons. Then, Bolgam and the skeletons attacked the ancient one. Bolgam jumped up on the dragon and slashed at his skin. The fire warrior skeleton blasted his fiery vengeance at stalactites above so as to block off the entrance from the other dragons. Just then a dragon flew in and got buried by the falling rocks. The sharp clawed skeleton sliced his wings so he couldn't fly, and the mechanical one climbed up the wall, jumped on his head, and stabbed through one of his eyeballs. Then, the dragon swallowed the fire warrior, grabbed the mechanical one, and threw Bolgam against the wall. Bolgam turned around and casted one of the spells out of the book called "slow" and the dragon could hardly move. They took this opportunity to strike at his heart and they did, and he died revealing the breastplate so Bolgam put it on. All at once he felt almost invincible.
    Then all of the other dragons rushed in and saw that the mighty one had fallen, and they were all furious. They started spitting fire all over the place lighting it up like a fireplace or a burning village made of wood and straw. They were not a match for Bolgam now so he and the skeletons slaughtered a few of the dragons, and then Bolgam found out that he could converse with the dragons now that he had the breastplate. He got them to calm down and commanded them to carry them back to the mainland. Also to stay with them until their journey is complete. They do and are now back in Persellite where they are holding conference with the king. In there they told him that they found about 27,000 gold pieces, and asked if he could keep the skeletons and give him the money. The king agreed to his terms and allowed them safe passage to the next village of Torzug, which is an Elven town.
