The letters written in the old book in front of Arcanus seemed to develop their own life whilst he whispered the forbidden words softly.
A icy blow went through the cave and turned the pages of the book, almost as if somebody or something didn't wanted him to finish reading the spell.
But Arcanus didn't care. He knew the last remaining words by heart.
The candles flared up briefly just before they went out when Arcanus finished voicing the last remaining sentence when the runes written on the cave floor suddenly began to develop their own life. They glowed, dissolved into each other and this way created entirely new ones until they suddenly stopped moving and the room turned dark again.
"Yala onna en' naur", Arcanus spoke and immediately the candles began to burn again.
A loud cry coming from a creature, forgotten a long time ago echoed trough the cave.
Arcanus smiled satisfied. The spell had obviously worked well.
A sudden quake shook the cave and a few large rocks fell from the ceiling, burring the ancient spell book beneath them. He had to get out of this place fast. Another quake went through the cave.
"Feeble human worm, how dare you speaking the forbidden words to wake me up? You'll suffer terrible agonies for doing this mistake.", a deep voice boomed trough the cove - or was it just in Arcanus mind?
Arcanus knew what he had summoned by voicing the spell but the creature, or better the blood of it, was what he needed to fulfill his goal.
He had successfully awakened a dragon who had slept the past thousand years in the depts of this cave.
For thousands of years there haven't been any dragons in this world. They extinct a long long time ago and except for the few unsuccessful times some wannabe sorcerer had tried to summon them none of them had ever lived during this period of time.
Arcanus knew why so many sorcerer had failed. They had always tried to bind them to their very own command by using magic - but a dragon was and is the epitome of magic. A creature born and living from it couldn't be controlled or even killed by using the same named. No, to get what he wanted he would need somebody else, who would be able to do him the favor of killing this beast - a dragonslayer.
