Description The darkness inside the cavern was all-enveloping and the long shadows created by his flashlight seemed to be playing tricks on him. There was no indication of the dragon nearby, the only sound came from his breathing and his footfalls echoing against the unyielding rock. After a few winding turns deeper into the mountain, Hasan found himself into a large chamber. He shone around with his flashlight not completely certain where to go next. It was hot in here, the warm air mixed with something else, the smell of sulfur and brimstone. Suddenly, Hasan heard something shift behind him accompanied with a tinkling sound. He turned around sharply only to see two large orange red eyes staring down at him trough the darkness. Hassan abruptly dropped his flashlight and briefcase as he slammed both his hands in font of his mouth to muffle the scream of terror that had crept up his throat.

Hasan, an envoy of the prince of Morocco tries to strike a deal with the Red Dragon, Tholaxxius who has settled himself into the High Atlas mountains. If you want to find out if he's successful or not, read the story.

The original picture is quite small, but it'd be rather hard to spot that way.
Oh well, artistic liberty.

Well, he did pillage the Louvre while he was in Paris, and that's where they keep that thing.

, that is true. Now the French are going to be out for his blood. Hm, a repeat of the French Revolution with a dragon...

Or, they'd nuke him

The French can't go around dropping nukes on Morocco like that, besides that, Izmir might very well order him to go *steal* nuclear waeponry.

You never know. It is the French after all. Highly unpredictable. No offense to Morocco, but I don't think they'd start WW3 over that

lol, steal nuclear weapons. Jesus, this Izmir continues to remind me more and more of Big Boss and his dream of a soldier oriented utopia, Outer Heaven.
