The era of dragons has passed but is not forgotten. There will be at least this one last ride, one last battle, before the masters of the domain of air fade into history and become legend. The Storymaster is a prequel novella to the Dragon Masters epic fantasy series by Vincent Trigili and originally appeared in The Dragon Chronicles, an anthology edited by Samuel Peralta.

Three years before Lord Silverleaf took his famous flight against the Fifth Council's armies, Elwyn, a young dragonmaster kills his first victims ripping him from his peaceful life. Now, Elwyn must overcome the madness, and lead his closest friends into battle if any of them are to have any chance to survive the coming darkness.
