The battlefield was named Stonedance and that's because of its stony surface and this part of the place was usually abandoned and without inhabitants. Some people claimed Stonedance was cursed, that's because it laid in the middle of two powerful kingdoms.Stonedance was neither cold nor humid as it stood between the hot and shining Maldonia, and the freezing and gothic Prophis.

Three hundred thousand men loyal to King Castellan Taelin of Prophis laid on the East, and two hundred thousand men keen to keep Lucian Mithandir.Whatever was going on in Stonedance was of no Artemis's concern as he focused more on sharpening his swordsmanship skills.

I have fought in wars ever since I was nine""Exactly my point Your Grace. You are good with your sword, and have been for some time" Sir Dante smiled softly "Is it the war in Stonedance which makes His Grace nervous?""Some say I am ought to join my uncle, support the house my mother called it home. While others say my uncle betrayed me the very first day he took Mithandir inside his walls""And what do you say, Your Grace?"Aurora joined them and Sir Dante excused himself. It had been a week and four days since they were last seeing at court."I am a warlock Artemis" For the first time ever since Artemis knew Aurora, this was the first she's declared and accepted her true nature. "I am a seer, spaewife, or any other words you may want to use but I am not normal""We have talked about this Aurora, when the time is right"Aurora interrupted "The time is now!" she said. "I can feel the flames in my dreams getting hotter. If I don't seek the help I need now, I fear for my own existence. I saw myself riding a " she paused softly.Artemis leaned on to her "Riding a what?" he asked suspiciously."It may sound crazy, I mean I have never heard of such creatures and even if they exist""What were you riding Aurora?"After a few seconds of not being sure how will Artemis react or take it, Aurora finally exhaled softly and brought herself to speak "A dragon" and then she paused waiting to see how will Artemis take all of it.
