 | As Druzzy, King of the Trolls, sat on his throne only partially listening to a troll speak about about the rising costs of bridge construction, his mind was really focused on his plans for the young Wish Dragon. "I must have it," he muttered silently to himself as the speaker continued, totally unaware that his royal audience's mind was miles away and many years into the past. |
Once he would have considered Hir'aeth, now the Gooblin King, a good friend. That was many, many years ago and before that moment. "Ah, if he hadn't dropped it, I would have had it," thought Druzzy. It had been their first search for a collectable. Both had boasted about how they would be the one to find the rare and precious bone sculpture. It was a one-of-a-kind as only one had ever been made by the great Dragon master artist, Di-Zane, but it had been lost when Di-Zane left with the other Dragons. After many years of searching, both the troll and gooblin had finally found the Dragon's lair. Little did they realize that Di-Zane also left clever little devices behind to keep his secrets. As Hir'aeth was the first to put his hands on the sculpture, a rock came crashing down and smashed it to a thousand small pieces. Hir'aeth barely was able to remove his hands before the stone fell but the piece was now lost forever! "If he would have let me take it first, I would have saved it," Druzzy still thought.
| It was from this day forth that started the competition on a less than friendly beginning and as the years continued, that desire to one-up the other became even more fierce between the two. Now, it seemed, to be the sole ambition of each of the rulers over all else! Who will win the next competition? |  |
 | As the speaker went on about the bridge problems, he took heart when he saw the King smiling and nodding his head. "He must like my presentation," he thought and continued on, not once realizing that the King of the Trolls was really smiling at his own thought that he knew something the Gooblin King did not. "I will get this talisman first," he silently told himself, just waiting to see the look of defeat on the Gooblin King's face when he showed him his newest acquisition. |
