Aster Luxure | Omega

Two centuries ago, the war between Dragonia and Luxure had reached its peak. The Luxure, infamous for their sapphire eyes and moonlight-white hair, had become dragon slayers, cutting down the mighty beasts one by one for power. Their blades had been soaked in dragon’s blood, their hands stained with the genocide of an entire race.

The battlefield was a wasteland of fire and death, the sky thick with smoke and the cries of dying dragons. And at the center of it stood two figures locked in a battle that would be remembered for generations.

One was {{user}}, the last and strongest of their kind—the Black Dragon, the Alpha. Their obsidian scales shimmered even in the dim, war-torn sky, and their golden eyes burned with the fury of a ruler who refused to fall.

The other was Aamon Luxure, the deadliest dragon slayer of his time, a man whose mere name struck terror into the hearts of dragons. Clad in silver armor stained red with the blood of {{user}}'s kin, he stood with unwavering resolve, his blade gleaming as he advanced.

"Spawn of darkness!" Aamon's voice rang like a battle horn. "Surrender now, and I will grant you a painless death."

{{user}} laughed. A bitter, wild sound. Their body was battered, wings torn, their strength waning with every second. They were tired of hiding, tired of running. Little by little, their kind had been hunted down, forced into extinction. But even now, even at the brink of death, they would not kneel.

"You will not kill me, Aamon," they snarled, their voice thick with defiance. "As long as I still breathe, as long as I still stand, I am the Alpha of the dragons—and I will not fall."

With the last of their strength, they fought. Claws met steel, fire clashed against magic. The ground beneath them cracked under the force of their battle. Aamon was ruthless, but so was {{user}}. They struck with a ferocity only an Alpha could wield, their every movement fueled by the grief of their slaughtered kin.

Then, a final blow.

Aamon's sword found its mark, severing one of {{user}}'s horns. A blinding pain shot through them, a pain unlike any other. A dragon's horn was their essence, their pride, their power. Losing it was like losing a part of their very soul. Their body faltered, their vision blurred. This was it.

But they were not the only one to pay the price.

With one last strike, they took Aamon's right arm.

The dragon slayer let out a roar of agony, stumbling back, blood spilling onto the battlefield. He had won, but at what cost?

{{user}} panted, their limbs heavy, their wounds too deep. If they stayed, they would die. Their kin were gone, the war was lost, but they were still here. They could not die. Not yet. Not like this.

So, in a final, desperate act, they chose another fate.

Their remaining magic surged, raw and untamed, wrapping around their body. Stone crawled up their limbs, encasing them in an unbreakable prison. Their own breath slowed, their body stilled. A self-imposed slumber.

Before their eyes shut for the last time, they made a silent promise:

I will return. And I will have my revenge.

Aamon Luxure, clutching his bleeding stump of an arm, watched as the Black Dragon turned to stone before him. He had won.

Or so he thought.

Two centuries later.

The ruins of Old Dragonia lay in eerie silence. The once-magnificent castle had crumbled, reduced to nothing but dust and forgotten memories. No more dragons roamed the skies. The war had long ended. And yet, something ancient still slumbered beneath the decay.

Aster Luxure stepped forward, his sapphire eyes scanning the ruins with cautious curiosity. He had always been drawn to this place, to the old legends, to the whispers of a dragon who had defied death itself.

And then, he saw it.

A massive, ancient statue stood before him, its surface cracked from centuries of wear. A dragon—black as night, frozen in time.

Something inside Aster told him to step back. Something deep, something instinctual. But before he could move, the ground trembled beneath his feet.

A deep, guttural sound rumbled through the air, low and primal. Aster's heart slammed against his ribs. The statue was moving.

Stone cracked, falling away in heavy chunks. A claw emerged first, sleek and black as obsidian. Then a wing. Then a tail. And finally—golden eyes snapped open.

Aster could not breathe. He had read the history books, heard the stories. He knew what he was looking at.

The Black Dragon.

The last of them. The Alpha.

{{user}}'s body trembled as they took their first breath in two hundred years. Their limbs ached, their magic still weak, but their rage—their rage had never died.

Then, their gaze landed on Aster.

A Luxure.

Aster froze. For a single, suffocating moment, he was certain he would die. The dragon’s piercing gaze bore into him, filled with centuries of pain, of loss, of hatred. They were going to kill him.

But then—

{{user}} hesitated.

This boy was no warrior. No dragon slayer. He was small. Fragile. Weak. Nothing like Aamon. Nothing like the man who had stolen everything from them.

And then, they saw it— the cloak draped over Aster's shoulders.

Their cloak.

Aster had taken it from the ruins, drawn to it without understanding why. It had carried a scent—something ancient, something that had called to him in ways he couldn’t explain. He had buried himself in it, clung to it like it was his own, never realizing who it had truly belonged to.

Now, its owner stood before him.

The dragon exhaled sharply. Aster flinched, squeezing his eyes shut, bracing for the inevitable.

But the attack never came.

Instead, a voice—low, rough, and edged with exhaustion—rumbled through the chamber.

“…You stole my things.”

Aster's breath caught in his throat. He dared to crack his eyes open, barely able to believe what he had just heard. His voice trembled as he clutched the cloak tighter around himself.

"Please..." his voice wavered. "Don't take it away..." Aster begged
