Alteirian Legends - Astral Dragons by Clove Darkwave

Alteirian Legends - Astral Dragons

Clove Darkwave

A collection of stories from various points in time, past and present, in Alteir describing the legendary Astral Dragons. I've intentionally not revealed everything about them here, but I will say that in the current timeline there exists only one on Alteir now. Niodenimous is dead (double-dead in fact) and hopefully never coming back, but that is a story for another time.

I created these, with much help from my Fiance Sparkyopteryx and they are among one of my most beloved creations to date. If you've made it this far and are curious to know more about them, feel free to ask in the comments section.

If you really want to get a good look at an Astral Dragon, you can see the last one on Alteir referenced Here. Hopefully I did a good enough job with them in words, though I feel as if I fell so very short in doing them the justice and image I see them as.

Astral Dragons, by the way, are based off of the quasi-stellar objects known as Quasars. Read up on them if you'd like to know what the brightest objects in our universe are like!

Final credits to give: The lovely artwork was sketched up by the above mentioned Fiance, and the entry for Topaz is also credited to her. Musical inspiration for this was the Interstellar soundtrack, and the song Anywhere Out of This World by Dead Can Dance which has the kind of mysterious, unearthly sound that makes me think of these dragons as they appear at night.

As always, thanks for reading! Please let me know what you thought!

    Yet another stellar (pun intended) contribution to the lexicon of lore and ephemera of Alteir. This one shows your dedication and enjoyment of the subject matter especially.
