The existence of dragons had always been a great controversy, as they only
appeared in legends.
In Aeos, dragons symbolized power, honor, and luck, but in Benores, they were
the incarnation of evil.
Stefan had done his research, and found that there were records of dragons
appearing in Water City, Srey, Cheville, Tregas, and Reka.
The incident of a dragon falling was widespread in Reka, and they even had
photos as proof.
It indirectly proved that dragons were real, and there were other places where
dragons had apparently resided too.
Stefan had asked around and finally came to a village called Dragos.
It was located in the depths of the mountains, and the villagers lived in groups on
the cliff.
They led a primitive life away from the world.
There weren't many villagers, but they were united and quite unfriendly to
visitors.
All of them believed in dragons and used dragons as their totems.
The walls of their houses were full of pictures of dragons.
Stefan sent everyone except Elijah off so the villagers wouldn't chase them off.
He brought along some simple outdoor equipment and a pistol, then entered the
village determinedly.
The guide was the only young man who worked outside of the village.
Neil Perry had just married the daughter of the head of the village last year and
was in urgent need of money to stabilize his position in his family.
Hence, he couldn't resist the high reward promised by Stefan even though there
was a rule in the village that the villagers couldn't bring outsiders in.
He took a risk by leading Stefan and Elijah into the village.
"Mr. Hunt, the entrance of the village is right in front of US, but my village is a
little.... special.
All of the villagers live on the cliff, and you need to climb a very steep hill to get
there.
You both should be mentally prepared..." Neil warned Stefan and Elijah.
"Plus, the hill is very hard to climb.
You know Ganarial Rise, right? This hill is more dangerous than that, and there
aren't any stairs to help you.

Many tourists try to climb up every
year, but they fall and die on the way."
Elijah looked up but couldn't see the
top of the hill. Visit Popsnovel.com

"Are you sure the villagers are living
up there? This doesn't look like a
place people can live in" "You can go
back now if you don't trust me, and I

We descendants of dragons never lie,” Neil said indignantly.
"No, I don't mean that...
I just think it's hard to believe.

It's very inconvenient to live on top of
the mountain, but you all have been
doing it for years," Elijah babbled,

Not only did it look impossible to climb, but he also had a fear of heights.
