Life has been unfair to him. Cursed since his youth, Richard has lived a rather poor life, confined to a temple knowing his time and reach is limited. When death comes for him, Richard accepts the ineveitable. But life has more in store for him. Reborn as a dragon hatchling alone in the mountains, Richard will have to use the system as best as he can and survive in his new body. What will he do with his life? What will he learn? Follow Richards as he finally gets to see the world outside the temple. Picture was made by Melchi on scribblehub using aiart. Thanks Melchi!
