The Coming of Imolatus

Cultural event

The Red Dragon Imolatus becomes patron of the people who would become the Arakeenians.

In the year 359, a young Red Dragon, called Imolatus by men, sought to settle in the lands of the Tribe of the Serpent. Although this Dragon was mighty, he was impressed by the power and dedication the Serpent tribe showed in defense of their land.   Imolatus came before the chief of the Serpent Tribe, Arakos, and made a bargain with him. Imolatus would make the Serpent tribe supreme among all tribes, if they took him as their totem, and gave the chief’s daughter, Keriza, to the dragon's bed. Though Keriza was the most beautiful of his daughters, Arakos agreed knowing that he would find no mightier husband for his child.
  Imolatus held to his bargain and taught the tribe the secrets of farming, cities, and war. And Imolatus knew the body of Keriza, and she gave birth to a son, blessed with the form of a man and the strength of a dragon, and he was named Sovereign.
