PROLOGUE Long ago before our time there was a land called Kumandra where humans lived alongside water dragons The dragons brought water rain and peace to the land to help it flourish And the humans lived in harmony caring for one another Life in Kumandra was paradise But then the Druun came spreading like wildfire to consume life Whoever they touched turned to stone A mindless virus the Druun cared for nothing Their only goal was to spread and multiply Dragons valiantly fought the Druun battling to save humanity but it wasn't enough One by one the great and mighty dragons were turned to stone Until there was only one left When all seemed lost Sisudatu the last dragon summoned every bit of her magic and power and placed
it in a gem Then she climbed to the highest point in Kumandra and brought forth a great explosion When the dust cleared the Druun were gone and so was Sisudatu The humans who had been turned to stone came back to life But the dragons did not And all that remained of Sisu was the glowing blue Dragon Gem the last remnant of dragon magic Without the dragons peace and harmony disappeared Kumandra split into five enemy lands Tail Spine Talon Fang and Heart that fought to possess the Dragon Gem It had to be hidden The Dragon Gem now resides in a secret chamber in Heart guarded by the warrior Chief Benja the baddest blade in all the lands No one has ever gotten near the Gem until now
