Title: Dragons Rating: G Prompt: Villains Category: Under 100 words Word count: 55 Summary: Creation is always a risk.
All energy has memory, and lightning has a very long memory.
Chime was a memory of a creature born before the first footsteps of man. A creature of blood and fire, and patient reptile cunning.
The Dragon fought and tore her way into her new glass body; into this new innocent world and woke hungry!

Ooooo. I like using Chime as a villainous dragon and looking into how she came about, all in under 100 words. I'm impressed.

Thankyou I love exploring the lore of dragons and all their permutations; intelligent, bloodthirsty, greedy, wise etc. In my mind at least the Chime we see in the book is a creature capable of pillaging, but tempered by the love charms and other protecter magic that went into her.

I like how much you fit into so few words.
I am not getting the reference (is this from Emelan?). But I like the thought of an ancient, bloodthirsty, cunning dragon inhabiting a small glass body, like a pet. Chime seems like the name you would give to a delicate glass paperweight dragon. What a bad fit!

Chime is from the Emelan series. More specifically she makes her first appearance in Shatterglass.

I like the imagery and pure curiousity that you manage to evoke in so few words!

Wow - I've never seen someone go UNDER 100 words so succinctly. And it's an interesting interpretation of Chime (as you said, with the pillaging - I never thought of it that way)!
