  Thank You

  For the generous readers who asked for more.

  Why Dragon School Extras?

  I LOVE WRITING DRAGON School. I love the characters, I love the world and I love the intricacies of it all. Writing this epic adventure is a lot like reading it – sometimes I’m surprised by what happens and where our characters end up, just like you are. And just like you, sometimes I get lost along the way and need to refer back to my trusty book of notes to find my way back.

  Some of my amazing readers have asked me to share my notes, so I’ve compiled them here for you. I’ll have to update it again later, but for now (as of the writing of Dragon School 9: Prince of Dragons) it is fully accurate. I also made a map for the release of this little book of extras. There is a printable option, so you can print it for your wall or notebook or wherever else you want to enjoy it.

  Thank you for joining me in Amel and Raolcan’s journey. I’m so happy to have you along for the ride and I hope that you enjoy it to the very end.

  Have fun!

  Sarah

  P.S. – here’s a fun piece of trivia provided by Sarah Brown: Amel is an anagram of “lame.” I didn’t plan this, but it just goes to show you that sometimes there’s more going on in the mind than you think.

  Ibrenicus Prophesies (in no particular order):

  BORN HIGH ON THE MOUNTAIN,

  Blazing bright under the sun’s demise,

  Twice blind but still seeing,

  The only bulwark against the dark

  Watch as the arches proclaim

  Dominion of Light.

  And one will come from the north, burning, burning,

  Judgment and Wisdom borne by the flow of spirit to spirit

  Do not speak to us of the times that follow,

  For they shall be as a dream of death as a nightmare walking,

  The dusk shall vanquish all but the covenant until the dawn of the tide.

  In the dawn glows the chosen,

  Bringer of our enemies’ downfall.

  Light the only companion,

  On journey to the heart.

  Offered then denied,

  Bride of Morning,

  Dark’s only hope of peace.
br />   A deal with death he strikes,

  And from his mouth springs truth

  To save the morning light.

  The imposter arises, opposite the good,

  Proclaims a new era

  Stands where good once stood

  A reign of the terra.

  These are the prophecies collected by Ibrenicus of Haz, son of dragons.

  For the time comes soon in which these prophecies will be needed so that the world is not broken by a war between the earth and the sky. For long years we have fought, but peace is brokered, and we lay down arms. We shall grow sleepy in comfort and one day our children will have forgotten the grim battles fought for the peace they think they hold in their palms.

  We know it is never so. No man owns peace. No man my hold it tightly and forbid its theft. We may only respond when war is brought to our gates and pray we respond right for truth is often mocked and lies win hearts faster than flames consume a forest. Who can stand when men give way on every side to the force of their desires twisted against them?

  It is for the wise that I collect these words and store them up in this book. That when the Chosen One arrives you will recognize what you see. When your salvation is near, you may lay hold of it. Do not wait. Do not doubt. Seize life while you still have breath and peace before it has dissolved like snow.

  The light brightens and grows

  Crown to toes

  But fragile lies

  Our key to the skies

  And only the arrow

  Shot from the bow

  Can steel us for

  Coming war.

  Surrounded on every side, not overcome,

  Light battles the depths, commands armies come,

  Her battle not with mortal man, but earth and fire

  Ancient ally returns in battle dire.

  Dragon History:

  A LONG TIME AGO, LONG before the Dominion, dragons were free and roamed the land without human interference. There were few humans then and those that there were lived mostly to the north of here. In those days, volcanoes were frequent things and tremors shook the lands. And in those days, the Ancients of Baoqueea – the nation that existed before Baojang – brought up Ifrits to exercise dominion over their enemies. Nations lay in ruins and people were shredded like stalks of wheat in the harvest.

  We dragons suffered, too. We were unorganized and scattered. We were hunted down and destroyed by Ifrits. All but Haz’drazen, Queen of Dragons and her brood. She sought a new land for us to increase and find safety in the south where the red of volcanoes bloom in the skies.

  It was there that she found a man – Haz, the first of the Dominars. Haz and his small nation made a truce with Haz’drazen and together they routed the Ifrits and drove back Baoqueea. It was on that day that dragons and the Dominion swore one to another that we would forever be bound to the prosperity of the other. You give of your young and healthy and we of ours to form the dragons and Dragon Riders that defend the Dominion - and with it the safety of our shared lands.
