"I-If he was the strongest, what could kill him?" Vlad asked, utterly shocked. "Was it a disease, or had he already reached the end of his lifespan?"
These were the only two logical explanations for his death that Vlad could think of.
"Neither," Lirien replied, her tail swaying. "You are too weak to know the truths of the world yet. I will naturally reveal more when you grow strong enough to bear the weight that comes with that information. For now, I can only tell you that he died saving the world."
Her revelation only left Vlad with more questions. If he was already stronger than the then leader of the Dragon Clan, what danger had befallen the world that forced him to sacrifice his life?
His eyes suddenly widened as a realization struck him, forcing him to rise from his seat.
"Miss. One last question," he pleaded. "I promise this is the last one."
"What is it?" Lirien asked with a sigh.
"When did the Legendary Knight die?"
