Text:

The Sultan has fallen before you.



You raise your sword high above as the masses around you erupt in frenzied cheers—a Dragonslayer hero, a valiant blade that vanquished the Sultan! This is a moment of unparalleled glory the empire has never witnessed; mere mortals reaching such heights!



Soon, the massive dragon's head decorates your throne—a masterpiece of gold engravings crafted by the empire's finest goldsmith captures the epic tale of dragonslaying, set beside your throne—watching over the assembly; those faint of heart among the ministers stumble in awe at their first sight of this head!



And you, the greatest hero among men, sit upon the throne. You wield the longsword tempered by dragon breath and cloak of dragon scales, with your Vizier, Jabal, by your side. Your claim was so unquestionable, your preparations for the throne so thorough, that the transition of power was as smooth as a hot knife through butter.



Jabal has little interest in policy matters—except for one: he believes the nation must encourage the rise of more heroes. So he oversaw the founding of a state-sponsored Adventurers' Guild, accepting commissions from across the empire and the continent beyond. The adventurers gathered there are trained and inspected by him and Adila, and a portion of their earnings is turned over to the state.



When you present this proposal to the ministers, no opposition is voiced! People gaze entranced at the dragon's head, envisioning your draconic conquest... Such magnificent beings truly exist and have been felled by our Sultan! Led by such greatness, success in all pursuits is inevitable— training more heroes? Excellent! The world needs more heroes!



Thus, you swiftly and successfully transform the nation, weaving ancient traditions into new order and granting people more freedom; bringing smiles, prosperity to markets, and reducing hunger.



To this day, your statues dot the continent and people pray for the courage to overcome adversity; they kneel faithfully and rise anew, eyes filled with strength.
