"Daddy, where does lightning come from?" An epic adventure that takes place during a time period when Dragons were alive and freely roamed the land. The people during this time were getting eaten by a vicious species of Dragons. The ruling King finally orders the total annihilation of all living dragons. A powerful wizard, named Merlinius, who is a friend to the king, does not agree with the King's order, for Merlinius knows that all Dragons are not what they seem. So he does what he must to protect a family of Dragons that he had befriended. And to protect his Dragon friends, Merlinius performs the spell of weightlessness and tells the Dragons to fly up and hide in the cover of the Clouds. He then gives the Dragons strict instructions to live within the clouds and to only come down at night to eat. An apprentice to the wizard who has grandeur of his own has a plan for Dragons that he has hidden deep within a mountain cavern. Now enters a young boy, who had also befriended a dragon, though a very young one, suddenly finds themselves caught between the King's order and a battle that has begun between two species of Dragons. A battle that would determine control of the skies above the Kingdom of Albion. This Apprentice's plan has consequences that may bring the Kingdom and perhaps the very world we live in today to a devastating end.
