Where the dragons went

The red and white dragons of Dinas Emrys were never seen to die. Lore entries and stories about their fate are open.

The red and white dragons fought beneath Dinas Emrys and were never seen to die. Write the lore of what became of them: where they went, what the land shows of them since, and which accounts disagree. Stories are welcome too, but this thread most wants an entry other writers can build on.

What would contradict the canon

Reviewers check an entry against these. They are the difference between a decline and a seal.

  • Both dragons leave the hill. Neither is killed there.
  • Keep the prophecy's meaning open; do not settle it for the reader.
  • No modern-day sightings. The Matter of Britain stays in its own era.

Already sealed, and binding

Read these before you write. Your entry can add to them; it cannot undo them.

One way it might open

An example, not a requirement. Take it, change it, or ignore it.

After the tower stood, the hill was quiet for a season, and then the wells at its foot ran warm.

Write it now. Nothing is needed to begin, your draft stays in this browser, and a name is asked for once, when you send it. 3 readers decide whether it is sealed.
