Your innate fire magic comes from the draconic magic that was mingled with your blood.

[Congratulation you have learned the forgotten language of Dragons.]

"Well, well, well. It seems like this domain has a new Master!"

[Congratulation. You are now the Master of the Forgotten Domain of Celebrim]

[Domain of Celebrim]

Ruler: Ser Simply Umbra

Faction: NA

Status: Wilderness

Population: 1

Climate: Temperate and Volcanic

Size: 50m square and 100m square.

This is an ancient domain. Once the seat of power of the Elvish King Celebrim, it is now a ruin. This domain lies in two realms. One pleasant in the 'real' realm while the other is a scorching lava realm of its own, a pocket dimension.

"I'm bound to this realm so here I shall remain. As the Master of this domain, I am yours to command. I'm limited to this fiery world. This place can only be entered by those you want. It can be a prison to your enemies. A secret base. A place of learning..."

"Wait, this is like my personal space! No one can invade it?" Simply rubbed his hands together in glee.

"Ha ha ha, not really. To invade this pocket dimension, one needs to first take over the other domain (in the real world). Once in control, only their champion can enter this realm, the Gahenn Plain. After he successfully completes the three trials, he can challenge you. Being the realm master, you will receive the plain's blessing. The challenger will always be at a disadvantage. This is after all my masterpiece."

'Holy shit!!!!!'

"So you are like, a powerful king of old?"

"Aye, I ruled these lands centuries ago. My kingdom controlled the entire continent. It was the greatest kingdom the land had ever seen! The elves and the dwarves had stopped their childish behaviours. Under me, they build grand flying cities. The culture was at its peak."

"Yeah, how did it end?"

"I died."

"Ha. Never mind. Before I forget, do you know anything about bloodlines?"

"Naturally, it was thanks to my bloodline that I managed to become who I was. Every so often, an individual possesses characteristic associated with a different kind of creature. Such as a dragon, in your case. Such a character is said to have a bloodline."

"So you felt it too!"

"Of course, if you hadn't manifested your bloodline, you would have died. I had always theorised that if someone was exposed to a life and death situation, it would be easier to manifest it. Anyway, bloodlines can exist for any of a number of reasons. Perhaps the person has an unusual ancestor, such as a dragon who took alternate form to live among humans or elves. It could also be the result of unusual energy present during conception, pregnancy, or the birth of the person. If I were to guess, you received your bloodline through another mean. The sword you carry holds the soul of a dragon."

Simply lifted an eyebrow. He inspected his sword. It had not changed. However, he discovered his class panel had.

Grinning, he muttered, "damn!"

Chuckling, the voice spoke out once again.

"I see that you are a student of the metal arts. I was once one too. If you need any guidance, feel free to call upon me."

"One last thing. How did you utilise this dimension?"

"As the greatest forge of the continent and my personal fortress!

Although Simply had to return Eternal Landing, he had passed the trials and awoke his bloodline, he was drained. Every inch of his body ached. Simply took his leave from Celebrim and logged down.

Three players nervously marched into a newly constructed fort. Most of the fortifications were built using timber, however, the group spotted workers reconstructing the walls using chiselled stone blocks. Towers set at intervals defended the wall. The perimeter was further reinforced with a double row of ditches, the earth from which was used to form the even out the hilltop on which the fort loomed over the plain. The four principal gates were constructed out of stone. They approached the arched entrance which was blocked off with two wooden doors. A voice shouted at them.

"Halt! State your business!"

"My name is Biggus D.i.c.kus. I'm here to report to Legate Marcus. These two are my closest companions as he requested."

"Centurion Biggus D.i.c.kus my apologies. Open the gate!"

"Ave Caesar!"

Inside the walls, a number of separate buildings were revealed to the three friends. Barracks, granaries which were built on raised platforms to better protect their contents from damp and workshops. The complex was dominated by the command building positioned in the dead centre of the fort. A soldier escorted Biggus D.i.c.kus inside the building. They entered the spacious office. Simple decoration hung on the walls, while a bulky man sat behind his desk. A standard bearing a golden bear was placed behind him.

"So you are the commander of the mercenary group called 'Legionnaires'?"
