Description:
The nation of Seven is known for its lush nature, abundant forests, and wildlife, but it wasn't always this way. A long, long time ago, when dragons still claimed the skies for themselves and destroyed all those that opposed them, Seven was a scorched wasteland, a great red dragon claiming the territory and covering the land in layers of fire and ash, spreading terror and death wherever it appeared. Many had lost their lives, and as a consequence, just as many had tried to fight the dragon to end their misery and free the land, all of them, in the end, consumed by roaring flame. It had almost seemed like there was no way out of the endless circle of pain, until, one day, a young man looking for shelter from the ever-raging firestorm discovered something he had never seen in his life: A small seedling sprouting from the ash, but a single leaf stretching towards the darkened skies, barely clinging on to life.

The man was in awe over the beauty of this unknown existence and tried his best to care for the dying plant, but it was of no use. There was nothing the man could do, and the plant shortly after would wither away, the single leaf falling to the ash-covered ground below. The man wept with great sadness, begging, praying for this beautiful thing to return, attracting the attention of Seven's scarred and broken nature. Over the years, nature had suffered immensely and built up an overwhelming hatred for the creature that caused this suffering, with this last straw deciding that finally, the time for revenge had come. As the leaf touched the ground, nature would entrust it with all of its collective energy, transforming it into an amulet of pure gold attached to a golden chain. The man looked up with tearful eyes, taking the item into his hands gently. It had been in this moment that the man received the gift of nature, inheriting its collective power, but also its rage. The years of suffering, the loss, the pain, and the death, it had all been too much, and with an expression of pure hate, the young man snapped, realizing what he had to do and that there was only one way out.

Immediately, although he was no slayer, the man began seeking out the dragon that reigned over the land and confronted it, the ensuing skirmish causing the ground to burn and fire to fall from the sky. For all of the battle, the winged monstrosity seemed to retain the upper-hand, the young man barely able to withstand the onslaught of heat and fire until, in a move of desperation, the man clutched the golden leaf around his neck, focussing his determination, the determination of nature itself on a single goal: To defeat the evil that had ruined his home. Within a moment, a massive burst of energy had been released, consuming the body of the man who had served as a vessel for nature, but also clinging to the dragon who, under roars of agony and defeat, was swallowed by the enormous explosion of magic, finally freeing the land of its oppression. It is said that where the man defeated the dragon now stands a massive tree, the oldest in all of Seven, all others in the land originating from the one who had given up all to save his home. Even today, the man is regarded as a hero in the country, and every man, woman, every child knows the story. What happened to the golden necklace? That, however, is a question no one can answer, and only time can and will truly tell.
