(Iskall's P.O.V)

It was early in the village. The harpies were chirping and the phoenixes lit up the morning sky. I stretched and rolled out of bed. Literally. I got up from the hard tiled floor and rubbed my back. I then got up and got dressed, and walked outside to meet Mumbo.

"Hi Mumbo!" I said.

"Hey, Iskall!" He replied "Have you heard the news? There is a dragon close to town!"

"I think that is fake, Mumbo. We have not had dragons in centuries. The guards must have mistaken it for a large griffin or something."

"I swear it is real, Iskall! Anyways, it is our job, as dragonslayers, to kill the dragon!"

"Sure," I grumbled under my breath.

We walked into the marketplace. Suddenly, a dirty blond boy bumped into me. He had a red sweater, black sweatpants and a purple cape. 

"Hey! I am Grian!" He said while helping me up.

"Hello, Grian, I am Iskall." 

"Well, I better go!" Said Grian cheerfully.

"That was strange," I said to Mumbo.

He gasped. 

"That boy was a pickpocketer! Look! Your gold ring got stolen!"

I looked down. Mumbo was right. Grian must have taken it while he helped me up.

"That brat! I am going to find him right now, and make him return it." I said angrily.

I pushed through the crowd, searching for the familiar red sweater. I saw a glimpse of red at the corner of my eye. I ran to him, pushing people around, and apologising whenever I could. I ran up to Grian and pinned him to the wall. 

"Give me back what I own" I hissed.

"I don't have it." He said casually.

"Where is my ring" 

"I sold it."

I gasped. 

"That was passed down from my father! Now you are going to pay you brat!"

"How about this." Grian started. "I'll repay you with the location of the dragon, and you will leave me alone."

"Fine," I said letting go.

He handed me a map. It pointed to a cave at the side of the steepest mountain, near the village.

"Are you sure this is the right spot, Grian."

No response.

"Grian?"

I turned around. He was nowhere in sight.

I sighed. 

"I'll guess I'll have to kill the dragon now."

(Time skip brought to you by a sneaky Grian)

I walked up to Mumbo.

"Hey Mumbo!" 

"Iskall, did you get your ring back?"

"No, but I got a map leading to the dragon's den instead."

"Ok, let us go there tomorrow!"

"Sure" I groaned.

Hmmmm. I wonder what is going to happen next...
