New Dragon Slayer Reveal: Yormag
The new legendary Hero Yormag arrives soon, ready for this week’s Dragon Strike!
Yormag stay. No one pass.
Yormag knew he wasn’t very good at thinking, but he knew what King Leonas told him. “Yormag, you stay. No one gets past until morning.”
Yormag loved his king. He always did what he said. This was a very important job they had said. The King must be proud of Yormag if he gave it to him.
It had been nearly the entire night, and still, no one had passed.
The gateway was littered with enemy soldiers. The mean Malum men had killed a lot of his friends. Yormag was happy the King had asked him to do this.
A commotion was coming from down the narrow cliff ledge that led to the gate. Yormag tossed aside bodies at his feet, inspecting broken weapon after broken weapon for something usable.
No time. Forty… fifty? Counting always made Yormag’s head hurt. They were already charging up the hill towards the gate.
The men rushed towards the marble pillars, yelling at Yormag. Yormag’s ears were ringing. He wanted them to stop.
THUD — three men kicked off the ledge. POW — two more crushed under a thrown comrade.
Yormag didn’t give an inch.
Dozens of men charged and were repelled, falling to or fleeing from this immovable mountain. Then, they all heard the sound together. An approaching, repetitive thump that gave hope to Malum’s troops… but not quite the despair they thought it would to brave Yormag.
Cheers went up from the attacking soldiers as the manslayer approached. Its rider raised his fist triumphantly as he bolted down towards this single soldier obstructing the path of his army. Yormag was not afraid.
“Dragon BAD!” As the dragon approached at blinding speed, Yormag caught it by its mighty jaws… only sliding back slightly on the dusty ground as he halted the beast in its tracks. “King say NO! ONE! PASS!!!!”
With a great effort he whipped the dragon’s neck to the side, sending it careening into the great pillar to his left. He jumped onto it and began pounding its belly with his fist.
The dragon struggled frantically at this tiny, confusingly powerful man. As he tried to escape the blows, his tail whipped against the opposite pillar. There was a great crack and a short moment of silence as soldiers and dragon alike looked up just in time to see their fate.
The gate crashed down on all. None would pass this night.
From under a pile of rubble — filled with arrows and slices from axe and blade –Yormag peered through the unimaginable weight of the stones covering him.
There it was. A twinkle of sunlight on the horizon. “None pass until morning” Yormag muttered to himself as his adrenaline began to fade. As he gazed at the twinkle of a new morning, another light pierced his fading vision… a warm blue glow. To him, it seemed as if the rocks themselves were glowing.
He suddenly felt like the rocks around him were slipping free. He made one desperate jerk towards the blue light.
“You did good Yormag.” He opened his eyes emerging from a strange door in a calm meadow. Was that the voice of the king!? “You can rest later. There’s more work here that we need you for.”
The King smiled. Yormag was so very happy to see him smile.
Yellow Dragon Slayer Hero: Yormag
Yormag is a mountain of a man. Usually a gentle giant, those who attack him or his friends rarely get far… and sometimes even have a few moments to regret their foolish choices before he makes them pay.
Yormag is a master of the Ability Spike Guard. His mighty armor can be temporarily empowered to provide powerful protections to Yormag and his allies, while also biting back hard at any opponent who dares throw attacks his way.
Yormag will arrive on Thursday, September 21st for the next Dragon Strike event. Will you be ready?
