The seven giant dragons can be seen inside a massive, rocky cavern, deep within a mountain.
The entire place feels like the inside of a giant hollowed cave. The walls are uneven and rough, shaped naturally by time and by dragon fire.
There are cracks in the rock where orange light glows, as if the mountain itself is burning from within.
The ceiling is high and dark, with smoke drifting up into it. The air is hot, filled with the smell of ash and fire.
The whole cavern trembled with heat. Fire rolled from the dragons' mouths, rising and falling like red waves.
Smoke curled toward the high stone ceiling until the air turned hazy. The cavern felt alive, like the belly of a giant beast.
When Aria looked down at the rocky ground, she saw the two princes still lying side by side, their bodies surrounded by a ring of dragon fire. It had been days. Days of waiting for at least one of them to wake up but no response from any of them.
